    And this is honestly the worst side I have ever ever witnessed- and that includes the teams under Parkin/hodges/spackman the hill croft "project" has set us back ten years - it's ****ing awful being a barnsley fan at minute

    Without doubt the McSeveney team took the prize for being the worse Barnsley side I've ever seen at Oakwell.

    I totally agree with that, Glynn

    But in all fairness to Sambora, I doubt he's as old as us, mate.:D

    It wasn't Hill's project, it is the club's break even project. Which is one I agree with in principle. Board just didn't have the balls to see it through and now we have some bizarre hybrid.

    Whoever had taken over in Summer 2011 would have had the same hand.

    Should have stuck with Robins instead of shitting ourselves when he talked us up

    My biggest gripe is the abject failure to increase income beyond raising ticket prices .

    Agree completely with that. If we are going to operate within our means we need to maximise every opportunity

    What frustrates me is how we played 2nd half of last season and early this season, we have players that are capable of performing, but the confidence has been drained.
