    Barnsley will always be my club but it’s pretty demoralising at times. Still 3 weeks to kick off but this preseason to date has been a shambles. Expectations for the coming season have lowered significantly since we missed out on promotion to a last kick goal only a few short weeks back.
    What we have come to expect I suppose….

    Is it just Lee and Conway thats the problem

    They didnt let Duff go
    They didnt sell Mads for only £3m
    They werent the reason we got smashed by Leeds
    They didnt cancel all the pre season friendlies or play them behind closed doors
    They didnt say the had big news
    They are not blocking new signings coming in early.

    There is still a chance Collins will be good, there is still a chance we will push top end of the table, there is still time to sign a few players, who knows?

    Just go elsewhere. If it's what's the point. Because these type of things crop up all the time. And many clubs have issues
    Would you watch the greed league as they have nothing but themselves to add to the structure. Or some of the owners that have human rights issues thrown at em.
    As said. Then you don't need advice off anyone. It's not compulsory.
    That's not a dig. I wouldnt watch anyone else. Am I happy with everything. Absolutely not. And there has been many a year I've felt down. But never considered packing in. I honestly wouldnt be looking elsewhere to make my mind up.

    I think you might be missing the point of this thread, its a bit tongue in cheek.

    Supported Barnsley since my dad took me as a nipper and I watched the game sat on his shoulders got hooked. I haven’t lived in Barnsley since 1971 but always watched a game when visiting. I’ve got to admit Im so proud to be a Barnsley lad and a Yorkshire man if anyone pulls a Barnsley shirt on and gives his/her best that’s good enough for me, enjoy what you have smell the roses. Life’s too short. Up the reds

    Well you don't give a flying do you. You would be one of the reasons we would spiral down worse than it is now.
    I really thought this post was a wind up.
    Support another club ? Really ?

    Ii think most people got it but there is always a few that spoil it for others unless you are the new champion of tongue in cheek comments taking over from Hooky Feller.

    Duff wanted to go his release clause was met.

    Anderson for 3million was decent business 1 year left.

    I've no argument with that. If there replacements are up to out is yet to be seen. You have a point with the pre season.
