    Didn't go today, couldn't be arsed and that's the sad facts of it. That's what he's done to me. Going away and getting beat just makes me feel angry.

    This isn't about today or this week for me but I'm looking back in the last 6/8 months.

    The transfer window was another of the specials from Heckingbottom just like January and the summer transfer window of 2016. How can we be left short of a striker because you've dilly-dallied about all summer? For me, he's not even that good. It's a multi-million pound business reported at 20 million, not Sunday league.

    I would say some of the transfer we've brought in this summer have been decent. Lynsey Mcgheehan Ugbo Barnes McCarthy Fryers Thiam.

    Then we've got the goalkeeper position. Davies makes more mistakes now than he's ever done at Oakwell. Yet he's almost guaranteed a game in What happened? I look at Sheffield United and I hate saying this but they got in two that I would have loved at oakwell. Blackman and Carter Vickers. I would have loved those two and happily swap Townsend and Pinnock/ Jackson for them.

    All in all I'm in hope that the takeover happens soon and some unbiased eyes will come in and make the tough business decisions to move the club forward.

    A bit away from the topic but I get the feelings Gauthier another Linton Brown which doesn't help.

    Sell all your good players. Replace them with far inferior ones and the result is unsurprising.

    To be honest sell them or not they would have gone for nowt now anyway (winnall,conor,bree,marley and josh) i agree with what you have said but sell or not we wouldn't have seen them for dust when their contracts expired.

    Well said HT.

    Cryne should be on the phone to Ashton Gate first thing tomorrow and offering whatever it takes to get Johnno back.

    You are bang on.

    Probably a poor choice of words on my part. In terms of loans as well we haven’t been able to get anyone with the quality of Morsy or James which again doesn’t help.

    Agree with that, I think Bolton will make up one relegation spot just hope they are 2 teams worse than us come end.of season.

    Going away and getting beat is pretty much standard away day for any Barnsley FC fan. We have been spoilt the last couple of years.

    I'm away on holiday and, having logged into a dodgy open wifi, I sat patiently waiting for a picture or video to load. Then the point of your post slowly dawned on me.......

    I've been saying all season that we need another 5 keepers. It's 6 now, as Jack Walton has gone out on loan. Hope we get them in January.

    We've got at least 2 senior pros in every position, we've even got a 5th full back.

    How on earth can a club of our size & budget bring in another 6 players?
