I fully agree..... I went to Birmingham & Hillsborough..... punished for POOR defending. 3 Barnsley players failing to clear ONE (1) ONE (1) ONE Birmingham player. Gave ball away & was only a matter of waiting for the goal. Same inept defending which put Wednesday in front after 3 mins at Hillsborough. Same today... Simply not good enough for this league. We MUST get in quality & experience... look at Lua Lua!! No point claiming positives from 2nd half as the job was already done then by Luton. £90 for 2 away tickets + travel. NO MORE. We have the wealthiest owners in the football league (apart from Man City prob Premier league too) & STILL selling best players at first offer..... SHOCKING. We will go down on this form. I know they said 'modest investment' but it isn't even that..... they said money in having sold best players would be reinvested... LIE. It hasn't, not even close. Send the Billionaires home if they're not willing to spend. If they're not then at least don't keep selling our best players. It's not rocket science. Stendel will go VERY soon to a more ambitious club. WE'RE GOING DOWN. Rich
The next time we come up from league one, we really ort to respectfully decline the offer to play in the championship and just stay put, easier all round
Would love to know exactly what their motives are. Must be money, but if they are really billionaires then gambling on finding a gem which, for them, would apparently be small change, seems odd.
But but but we would still sell all our best players.....at least this way we get to play at a higher level.
Apart from moore the sales were forced. No issue with that. But after promising to reinvest the money they look like liars and failures. Then to claim its best transfer window in history is insulting
What’s funny is I’ve seen plenty of Barnsley fans dubbing them as Barnsley rejects. Bree & Pearson barely broke a sweat, Butterfield ran the show & Elliott Lee would probably be our main centre forward now we’re without Moore & Woodrow!
They weren't even trying to compete in the 2nd tier with this rebuild. No-one could have seriously thought these would be ready to do the biz this season. They are purely and simply the next wave to be asset stripped when we come back up again.
We need to tweak the plan and look at the free agent market for some experience to help bring on our inexperienced youngsters that have nobody to learn from. Our giant keeper got LOBBED the other night and yesterday flapped at a easy catch and got beat at his near post for another goal. If we truely have got two first choice keepers for the first time since Steele/Muller then we need to give Collins a chance and see if we start letting in less. Whatever the situation with Cavare is he needs putting straight back in for Wigan. People have said he's fallen out with Stendel, but it doesn't matter to me if that's true. All I want is for Stendel to do what's best for the team and if that means playing someone he's not keen on, so be it. Playing one of the worst teams in the league without a striker on the pitch will have given Luton a pre match boost. The season is already looking a long one. We can't complain about our defeats or see many positives in them to think things are going to change. We can't think we were unlucky to lose games. We got what our performances deserved. The slightest touch yesterday and Luton went down winning a free kick or getting someone booked. Their keeper played the ref as well with his time wasting that didn't result in a booking and he tried to keep the ball off us when we scored and got away with that too. They were in the refs ear all game and surrounding him wanting decisions. Sonny Bradley was gestering to our fans after one of their goals and the ref let him off just telling him to stop. We don't have gamesmanship like that ourselves so looked like boys vs men being bullied.
