    Strange how when we have a tough time how we start to create divides. I'm not sure if it's a general footy thing or just a Barnsley thing. Instead of being united and pulling together we see clear efforts to divide thinking and support. For example we have the Unhappy Flapper vs Happy Clapper debate. We target the manager first. Then onto singling out players. Next comes the board. Even talk of sponsors knowledge of divides in the camp. Some fans stop going some back their team even further. Ex players have their say and the papers fuel our fire.

    I think a psychologist would have a field day analysing this. Wonder if same happens at Man Utd or Man City or Liverpool. How often do they walk alone.

    Genuine question: what are we supposed to be conquering?

    It wasn't a question, it was a title.
