    Machin did a phenomenal job on a shoestring. Went a bit mad in his final season when he developed an obsession with central defenders, but keeping us up after he took over followed by a very near miss with the playoffs isn't to be sniffed at. We played some lovely football that season.

    If Machin had left maybe a year or so before he did people would think far more fondly of him.

    I love Mel. My favourite times watching Barnsley were under him. We had no money but he created great team spirit. Shame his wife got Ill which made him lose focus near the end. An absolutely lovely guy too.

    Didn’t mind Hart. Dull but not hateful. Missed most of Parkin when I was travelling but I knew his Nan as she lived ion our street and he’s an ok bloke. Hodges. Hard to judge shitehawk of a bloke but had a very bad hand to play.

    little Lee is the Liz Truss of football. Promoted beyond his ability by spouting gibberish and always found out. He got what was an incredibly good team playing incredibly badly.

    I honestly don’t think he’s much better than Poya & Schopp. He was useless. Pound shop Guardiola. All he wanted to do was pick central midfielders & pass sides to death but had no idea how to break teams down or how to stop counter attacks.

    Can't believe no-one at all has mentioned Davey. The FA Cup run will have ruled him out in people's minds I guess. But he was dull, dour and a pr!ck to go with it.

    Fair points, although I'm not sure how knowing Parkin's nan saves him from the roll of shame. Cuts had to be made, but he still managed to get a squad containing Bruce Dyer, Mike Sheron, Chris Morgan, Darren Barnard, Chris Barker and Dean Gorre relegated. Quite the feat.

    Fair enough, some of the supporting cast was truly atrocious in Gibbs, Flynn, Donovan, Crookes etc, but that squad was nowhere near bad enough to have been relegated. Especially after going ten matches unbeaten at one point.

    Anyone who complains about our transfer dealings nowadays should just look at who we signed in winter 2002 to try and keep us up. Gibbs, Flynn, Naylor and Tony Bedeau, who didn't always start for Torquay. I have no idea how much Parkin had to do with these signings, but deadline day in 2002 was a proper **** sandwich.

    Lee Johnson should just pack up now and start selling second hand cars at Bristol Street Motors. Preferably not ones that speed down bomb alley
