    The method Barnsley are employing of only signing players under a certain age will not work we want someone with experience and steel in there not all these youngsters,it did'nt keep us in the championship and it will not get us out of league 1,the way things are I can see us stuck in thus league for years

    It definitely will work in L1. It won’t work in the Championship unless you modify it.

    Depends on the players really if they can learn and get better then it will work at any level some will go on and others will find there level hopefully most of this squad will kick on

    All the best teams I’ve seen at Oakwell over the years have had a blend of youth and experience. Personally I’m not a fan of the policy as it stands at the moment...

    It got us out of league one last time and kept us in the championship before they all got greedy

    Look at their side today as well. Granted, I'd have Tony Craig, even though he is a ******.

    What makes you think employing "olďer heads" we would be higher up the table? Bradford city have plenty of experience working great for them.

    How many over 25s did we have when we went up last time? Only Hammill by my reckoning.
