    through this managment saga I have been in favour of an experienced manager (my choice Billy Davis) but as the well known managers are not prepared for the challanges at Barnsley I am being swayed towards Craig. Too many don't want flickers as he has been part of the set up that has draged us back to league 1 standards, so maybe it is time again to take a punt at someone with a pasion for the club, good contacts, a good insight into the game and above all something to prove. I for one was ready to turn my back on the club and refuse to renew my st and not watch league 1 footy but show us some spark and exiteing football and I will be there. So come on Don make an appointment and get the fans back

    It would be a gamble however, it would be a gamble worth taking

    I am pretty much in-lien with you here.

    Would have preferred Billy Davies and did like the possibility of Terry Butcher.................but we've been knocked back so let's give it somebody who:-

    (a) desperately wants the job
    (b) is a BFC legend and will have best chance of dragging fans back
    (c) has been involved in football at high level and will have good contacts

    Appointing Hignett would be, on the whole, a positive move for BFC.

    Back down towards Cricket Ground?

    Headingley is a good spot with plenty of opportunity in your business area.

    I like a couple of all-day sessions up in Headingley during Summer months.......for obvious reasons !!!
