    You mate are a specter at the feast. All you do is moan looking back at your post history last few months. Definitely one of the many you speak to around town who clearly only support this club so that they can moan when its going bad. Worst type of fan in my opinion, when the chips are down whine complain and refuse to go. In fact probably better off without you, because I'd wager your negativity is infectious.

    Or maybe he's just completely fed up with decline year after year and the dross we've had to endure since LJ arrived is the crowning glory on the **** pie. I'm not going either, partly because it's the pointless JPT and partly because I'm sick of being bored rigid at games.

    I'm not going either for similar reasons (although I'd probably be tempted if I didn't have the 50 mile drive to get there) but I'm hoping it's a decent turnout and we win handsomely.

    I just don't get why anyone actually hopes for failure. If we keep failing LJ will be gone, and that's fair enough, but it doesn't stop me hoping that we can suddenly win 10 in a row and be in the playoffs and a final in a few months.

    Actually posting on a public forum that I hope for failure and misery at the club? Not for me. Each to their own though.

    That's kind of my point. It's been abysmal for a long time and just when we didn't think it was possible to get any worse the club pull a rabbit from the hat and show us that it can.

    So you just speak to people at random and they tell you that they only support Barnsley so they have summat to moan abart. Bit strange.

    I don't think we'll go into admin based on a poor gate tonight. That will happen when Johnno takes us down and we only sell 3,000 season tickets. I want to avoid this and for us to be the best club we can. Not possible with this manager at the helm.

    How does hoping for a low gate mean I want them to lose?

    I take it you're posting on your smart phone whilst sat at Oakwell. How are we playing?

    Not really, not in a meaningless game. Its called "speculate to accumulate". The sooner the club is rid of Lee Johnson, the sooner it can recover.
