As a avid Barnsley fc fan I'll never slag them off and I'll never let anyone pull my club down but in the last few wk I've lost all arguments. I do think we'll pick something up shortly but Keith hill has got to come out and admit that a lot of our demise is down to him. 1) John stones needs dropping because his defensive skills at the moment are awfu (I like the lad but we need hassel back there) 2) Scott goldbourne needs dropping because the lad as no right foot and he seems scared to death of putting a ball in the box 3) Apart from playing 4 in defense what is our formation for the rest of the team? 4) we get a free kick in a dangerous position and within 3 kicks our goalie as it back at his feet I witnessed people laughing today when mido came on, for **** sake this is our team our club we shouldn't be laughing and taking the piss out of our own players. Where do we seriously go from here?....... For me hill as to get the lads in this wk and tell them to go out next wk and enjoy there game, not to worry if they play a long ball and loose it. Sacking hill is daft to me at the minute but should we not have any points for the end of the month the 'make shift' board have to ask questions of his manège rial skills. Anyhow the weekend is ruined now, let me find that stray cat and kick the ******* down the street!
I'll take issue with you over Mido. He has a backside wider than a Yorkshire Traction bus and is patently not ready for Championship football. If anyone was having the piss taken out of them it was the long suffering paying punters of Barnsley FC as soon as he was introduced.
We need to laff at summat JC its glum at the moment and Mido gave me that for a short while today. Odejayi use to be the same, have me in stitches at times. Another player not fit and played in a red shirt it aint on really for me.
I feel your pain JC, I am feeling it too. I honestly don't know where we're going but one thing is for sure we have to keep Hill and let him get us out of this hole.
Golbourne should have been dropped four games ago, looks very average at the moment. Cant run forward, gets skinned and his passing has declined. Stones, yeah rest him, he's dipped in form but the lad has serious talent and will recover his form soon I reckon. As for Mido, well we had to try something because Etuhu was absolutely awful throughout and Daggers has struggled recently. But yeah, laughing at him isn't nice to hear, simply because the circus that followed should not be happening in the Championship. He should play when fit. Not before.
It's unfortunate at the moment were in a bad run because it's hard to find anything up beat and until we get a point this negativity will continue. In past years when we've had a dip there's always been a turning point where the fans and players seem to get a sense of 'let's stick together and battle through' but a don't know where it can come from, no one sings any more, fans laugh at our players and I honestly can't see which player in our team can get a grip on the lads and try ro lift there spirit I remember some years ago reading about Sunderland taking a heavy defeat to Chelsea, on the way back Peter Reid stopped the bus at a pub and the whole team got sloshed and had a proper team bonding session. It cleared any unrest I the camp and they went on to have a good run. Anything to try and change there frame of mind is required at this current demise
