    What a guy this bloke is, he was crucified on becoming the Barnsley Manager, the Welsh git kept us up when all around us were saying we are doomed. He kept us up last season and led us to the FA Cup semi-finals, it could be the first and only time in our lifetime that this feat will be acheived. He brings in 12 or 13 new players at the start of the season with probably an ouylay of between 1 million and 2 million i don't know. Some are good and some are bad ,but most have been good. Where does the guy get his contacts from?. BarnsleyFC must have the most international squad in the Championship, and he could have brought two more gems into the squad.

    What can you say EH! :D Who would have thought that BarnsleyFC would be a good international team in the 4th best league in the world. Good old Davey, i hope they all blend in well next season and we give it a good go. A big new forward signing, and a central defender and Hey Presto anything could happen.
    Looking round the other squads in the Championship we have nothing to fear , most of the players in other teams have not been tried and tested, its all new and we set off in the Championship next season on equal terms , and we shouldn't be afraid. Davey will get us through :)

    4th best league in the world?

    Can't help thinking there'll be a few departures next week, and I'm not meaningthe ones on the transfer list.

    I'd say so, I'm with him.

    If I'm wrong I'd gladly stand corrected but I saw something the other week showing the richest leagues in Europe.
    As I remember
    1st English Premiership
    2nd Spanish Primera Lega
    Now this is what does me, 3rd was either Bundeslega or Serie A, I'd probably say the wops.
    4th was the championship (play-off final definitely the richest game in world football)
    And just to add we all know the European leagues are the best in the world, goes without saying.
