As we bestest Barnsley fans drove home last night

Robbie Williams

We've had this every season for the last three years. In the team till the end of September, when we realise he's not good enough, and then he's not seen again till the next pre-season. I noticed Wade Elliott was playing for Burnley last night - he singlehandedly tore Williams apart at Bournemouth the season before last.</p>

I expect it was similar last night.</p>

 

RE: Robbie Williams

2nd half especially. Mind, the ref not allowing Reid on until they crossed into the box for the equaliser didn't help, but that doesn't hide our frailties individually and collectively defensively.</p>



And do you know I've brought a tie to work that doesn't match my shirt ? ffs in a basket.</p>

 

RE: First 2 players off the pitch: Kay and Reid

Fair points.

We struggled against similar sides last season but usually got a result. This season the "Andy Booth's" are a bit nay a lot better and will score say 1 in 3 or 4 chances. Like mentioned elsewhere, overall defensive system needs to be looked at, but it's always a worry that we would lose our attacking edge if we changed the style of play.

I also don't believe that it is AR's way to change the style to be more dour if you like.

Not be from me, but a few more defeats and this place will be full of the calls. I think he deserves time to build even if that means r********on and promotion again. Regardless of what is said from above, I think there is massive pressure to do it as cheaply as possible.

 

Perhaps Ritchie thinks

If we had a striker who actually posed a threat, and lets face it, noneof Richard, Hayes or Wright looked particularly like scoring, we maynot have to be so cavalier in our approach.

Personally I agree we need a striker but we also need one, if not twodefensive players as well and needed them on permanent contract.  I amnot convinced a change of formation will be enough to stem the tide ofgoals conceded, nor that the loan market has what we need.

I recommend Marks and Spencers at lunchtime.

Simpsons dickie bow?

 

Oh, and...

...I fell out with &quot;Stevie&quot; last night after he called Farnham a wan-ker. The gret divi.

 

RE: Robbie Williams

Not in Royston Vasey. I'll have to do with Ye Olde Gents outfitters.</p>

 

RE: Oh, and...

Does 'Stevie' realise yet ? he'll respond next week.</p>

 

RE: Robbie Williams

Greenwoods for thee.</p>

Woollen ties - as worn by the discerning country gent.</p>

 

RE: Robbie Williams

I am resisting Greenwoods with all my might. There is a gun shop/country puirsuits  shop round the corner, Barbour waistcoat my good man, and a stout walking stick.

 

RE: Robbie Williams

Tweety Pie/Sylvester tie if you please.

RE: I think he said

More eloquent than normal then. Nice.</p>



Your ticket was taken btw. And the winning spell has been broken. The best scientists 2 minutes from town are working on a Championship survival travel plan.</p>

 

RE: I think he said

Well done getting rid of the ticket. Didn't leave work till half eleven last night so my pessimism was well founded.</p>

 

RE: I think he said

Half eleven ??? If you aren't indulging in workplace naughtiness with the receptionist or summat then fvck that right off.

 

Matching socks ?

flashing your ankles to the large breasted neighbour ?

 

RE: Matching socks ?

It'd not be me ankles I was flashing. The dirty little minx.</p>



Socks are Dick Dastardly and Muttley.</p>

We only really have the option of an inexperienced Premiership player - as Ritchie obviously doesn't like to bring in "old heads".

Erm - quim and all that.

 

Whatever next ?
