    It's the first time in a long time there's been positivity around our club that we can compete around the top end of the division realistically.

    The players were looking to bring in and have already brought in are players in my opinion that can get us out of this division then hold their own back in the championship with a few additions obviously.

    I can't remember the last time we looked this ambitious, possibly the last time Wilson was in charge when he brought a squad together for the 96/97 season.

    I can't wait for Open day now so I can get my 8 month old lad his new kit to wear with pride.....

    I agree these signings have cheered up everyone and made a more positive feeling waiting for the season to begin.
    Lets not get too carried away.
    Bring another 3 players in and I would say we have the basis of a good squad.
    That squad then has to deliver the goods on the field of play. This will take time which the manager deserves in order to settle the team selections.
    The old dross has more or less all been replaced and now this is Danny Wilson's team.
    I hope to see a different style of play now the Manager has his own men.
    I will be happy for a season of consolidation as long as the product is heading in a more entertaining direction.
    Play Offs or Promotion would be a huge bonus.
    I admit to being openly negative about some of the goings on at Oakwell recently but I sincerely hope this Manager and team can lift us out of the Doldrums.
    Danny Wilson will now be judged on this team alone and not the one he inherited Mid Season last time around.
    I wish him and the new lads all the best for the new season!!

    I am far to excited Dr Zazlos but I think I deserve to be as we don't get the opportunity to be very often haha.

    The board the manager and particularly Mr Mansford have got a fair bit of stick over the last few months but I think the way things are going now were finally on the right track and whatever has been going on behind the scenes has started to come good now and all the people who doubted we were doing anything at all other than sell have been well and truly put in their place.

    I think we do need some more players like you say but I think we have been shown now that we have got the means to get the players were looking at and it's not all "********" from Ben.
