    500 mile round trip to watch that crap.

    I’ve shown more commitment than Devante today.

    Well secured, privileged young individuals whose only concern is............
    Sorry for my angst, but if this is a generation that represents the future, we are ******. The aged haters will be glad to know I will be gone well before this happens. Happy too.

    I've posted loads of positive stuff lately but I've come out of the ground today embarrassed to be a Red. No clue, No direction and no heart..side to side meandering garbage that went nowhere and just kept going with the same tactics..if ya dint kno Cole needed to be off very early ya shouldn't be in the job. going to Burton but mi support has took a hard knock today..as I suspect will the season ticket sales...

    How is it possible for this team to play together all season yet still look like they haven't met each other before.

    We need a manager who tells the board that he will be the one who decides the way we will play and not be dictated to by a group of people who know absolutely **** all about producing a successful football team. Sadly we won't get one

    I can't disagree with you mate and it's happened far too many times in our home games but id still back the players over Collins.

    In my opinion these players are only good enough for the third division I’m just hoping they prove me wrong and we get promoted through the playoffs
    Then what?

    Cole has been way out of sorts for the best part of two months...I joked a bit ago that his second touch is a tackle but it was exactly that today......Our players and the tactics are awful at home and have been all season...just soooo slow and predictable and even the poorer sides have loads of time to get bodies behind the ball and frustrate.

    I don’t blame the players at all they are following through the instructions given to them by the managerial team

    There's a great irony in completely randomly mentioning 'the aged haters' in a hate filled rant about an entire generation.

    Maybe bring 73-year old King Ronnie in to show them how to run directly at a defense and push then backwards, rather then trying to play around them every time. Alternatively, give Ronnie a start. He can't slow the play down anymore than this lot.

    Cole did nothing today; McAtee was not much better, and it got worse when Cosgrove and Watters came on.

    What a front line we have. It puts the fear of God into Barnsley fans.

    I’ve done that often enough in my lifetime but I certainly wouldn’t do it these days. It’s only 100 miles round trip for me now but that is becoming harder and harder to do. Sick of so many home non-performances this season. Absolutely sick of it!!

    Exactly how I feel. Yet another home game I’ve left early and that’s really not like me at all. The worst was the Lincoln horror show that I couldn’t stomach to the end. It’s all unraveling and it’s going to cost the club thousands in lost season ticket holders.

    Personally I’d have pulled the plug on the Collins experiment some time ago. But we are where we are.

    Today wasn’t when automatics went, that was last week. In all honesty our results have flattered performances all season.

    Not good enough in all departments. It’s a poor league and we fit right in.

    In fairness to him the “Collins experiment” does have us fifth in the league.

    Wow. I was taught as a 7 year old that you never, ever play a back pass within the frame of the goal. Absolute footballing basics.

    A **** league where we have the ability in the team to be sitting where Portsmouth are. I could have ‘coached’ this lot to 5th.
