She's a heavy smoker apparently so her breath might not be too fresh. I'd imagine her sexual health is tip top. We are going to end up with pretty much a brand new back four - only one has any real Championship experience. They need to get up to standard and to gel, which they really need to do in August as we are already up against it. We have Isgrove who has played for the club but the only players he will know are Davies and Hammill. He also has next to no experience at this level. We have Mowatt who does have experience but looked poor for me and Moncur who the jury is still out on. McGeehan looks to have a lot of potential but again, he has never played at this level. We don't have a Scowen type player unless we count Sessi who has played about three times in his career. We haven't replaced Hourihane's goals or assists, Watkins goals and we never even tried to replace Winnall, so that's about 28 goals to find from those three. I don't think Payne or Bradshaw are the answer. If we start with those two up front get used to "Barnsley 0". That's how I see it and I am as entitled to my opinion just as much as someone who thinks the complete opposite. Edit - that last sentence sounds a bit petulant.
Indeed you are, and I certainly share your concerns about the defence bedding in. That's my main worry. I genuinely think we'll get a lot of goals from midfield next season though, just as I'd be astounded if we started with Payne and Bradshaw up front, though I think both players are capable of making a positive contribution.
Probably 2-3 permanents plus Upto 7 loanees to come so team could be a lot different come 5 th August
Davies, MacDonald plus another 9. I've absolutely no idea what the new players are like and whether they'll be any better than Hammill, Bradshaw, Moncur etc .

I expect we've quite a few more to come in yet and the first team 11 won't be what we already have. I'd be surprised if we didn't bring 2-3 strikers in and i'm not sure we have the grit in midfield just yet. Wide also looks a bit lightweight, But i'm sure we'll be addressing the areas the manager wants strengthening.
I think we will try play with one up top next season moncur in the 10 role. Bring in a big striker if we want to change it and go more direct in games
Whoever we pick for our first eleven like some I believe Moncur could be a regular starter this term. He looks to be smiling in every shot I've seen of him which means he's enjoying himself again. Sessi will also come to the fore in my personal opinion. We stood by him during his injury so as far as he's concerned it's pay back time. Also be prepared for a big surprise with Mowatt. The kid looks absolutely "ripped" which would suggest he's dedicated his own time in the close season to getting as fit as he can so come 5th August he can show our fans what he has to offer. That must be really pleasing for your Manager.! You don't win Player of the Year at your former Club if the basic talents not there. I think that lad will come good this season.! Contrary to popular opinion I also think Tom Bradshaw will improve during this coming season especially as it sounds as though when the squad get back from Poland it's likely that quality striking options could well be added to give him the support he will need up front.!
Well remember my mate Ron who's wife who was a dead ringer for Natalie. She walked in front of the telly with no clothes on once whilst he was watching Match of the Day on a Saturday night She was telling my missus about it the next day. He knew his priorities did our Ron. As he craned his neck to look past her he uttered the immortal words " Get some clothes on luv you'll catch your death." Not a very bright lad. He'd even think an Itchyfanny was a Japanese motorbike.!
