    But it's Keef that's realised he's signed a dud. He knows deep down the criticism is fair.

    Don't think you can class any one a dud after 8 weeks. That's my point.

    He's not been great or shown much. But to call him a waste of space, want us to flog him etc is a bit weird.

    Serious question - is he there to gain match fitness/sharpness/confidence or is it with a view to a permanent?

    I think it'll be to get him out of the way for 2 months and bring him back for pre-season.

    I agree

    Just seems a bit drastic to me - the best way to learn to cope with the Championship is to play in the Championship.

    What happens when you learn you can't cope?

    You get rid - only option. Question is how long do you give someone? I agree with Dyson that eight games is not really enough but he hasn't shown any evidence that he will come good.

    I think Keith wants him to play some games to sharpen up his match fitness, but without any risk to Barnsley. Get the feeling Keith thinks we need a couple of wins to make sure of safety, and doesn't want to be carrying any players in the run in.

    Makes sense to me this move. Dagnall will come back for pre-season and have a good run at it, hopefully proving the doubters wrong - or ultimately being shipped off back to Bradford!

    Answer is you get relegated especially with a squad our size.

    That's just blown Dyson's plan out of the water.
