    I presume you mean: Brittain, Adeboyejo, Aitchison and Oduor?

    Well said. And every Saturday on Sky you can watch most of these players banging goals in for other clubs. It seems to me that every window, loyal ST holders are shafted.

    But the plan doesn't allow for it to be spent wisely it will be spent on more punts on lower league and failed higher league kids in the hope they'll repeat the trick and it's never going to bring sustained success because of the time lag in turning all the punts into decent players if that is possible.

    Fair point! Although if I knew that the Lada was just a stop-gap and in 4 months time something better would be available, I'd probably go for it. Especially if I could borrow a passable car off my rich mate to use in the meantime.

    That wasn’t what I said now was it?

    Do you think a club with that much turnover can ever be successful.

    If you are advocating us spending 100s of millions of millions of pounds on players then fair enough…

    Forest spent 164 million in 2022

    Do you think we have improved our team in the last year?

    Do you think say Jack Shepherd is an upgrade on Helik?

    oli shaw better then Morris ?


    etc ad Infinitum.

    Yes and that doesn't include the 8 loanees in and out of the squad in that period as well. It's mental. These people are lunatics.

    No, but I don’t see how we were going to get a better team than that that finished 5th in the Championship when we’re currently in League 1.

    Alot of those players were wrote off by fans but are better than we have here now. The biggest mistake barnsley football club made was get 2 clowns in schopp and ashbagi to manage us I wouldn't let them loose managing my daughters under 8s side.

    Looking at the list of players you posted, the majority finished 5th in the Championship.

    majority got us relegated as the worst club in the Championship.

    The plan. Buy players. Sell at profit. Improve year on year. Gradually improve the players you target to allow you to progress up the league.

    how would you say that’s working?
