    It is, because he is my player of the season as well, but new brush, own signings an all that **** that goes with managers these days.

    You'll probably be reight.

    Our top league goalscorers this season?

    Seven goals, six goals (x2).

    Crawley have a lad with 20 goals.

    Considering Ben telling us that to succeed down here we needed goals, and that's what they recruited, it's turned out rather differently. I do though appreciate Winnall was missing for half the season.

    Our defence have had little protection all season from midfield, and up front we've rarely got them out of jail.

    We are what we are. Bang average Barnsley.

    Start again in August. Hope for summat fresh/unique. Tis ever thus.

    I just can't see it...liability a lot of the time. Don't get me wrong he has had his good spells but is he a competitor?

    He's no where near.

    The bloke makes more mistakes than M'voto but they just seem to be ignored.

    I`d like to see Jennings start Setdi, he runs at players, aint scared to get a shot off and tracks back to help full back, admittedly he aint cracked many pots this season but apart from O`Sullivan replacing him the other two Stewart and Lalkovic have been the worst players on the park in the last few home games.

    Even a poor Jennings is better than Stewart, Lalkovic I have seen have the odd decent game though.

    Cranie I'm presuming costs too much.

    I think he's been comfortably our best defender this season, as he was in his rare appearances last season too. I appreciate he's not Bobby Moore, and makes mistakes (as I'm sure they all do) but in my opinion he's a solid laiker at this level and we'd be daft to get rid.

    However, if LJ can replace him with better, then I'd be just as pleased.

    They both make mistakes, as did Holgate both yesterday and on Saturday, as does Cranie with his knack for never being where he's needed. It's why they're mid table L1 defenders. But it's just an opinion, I believe Lewin has been our most consistent player this season and comfortably the best of our defenders.

    BFJ has a lot of the tools needed to be a real standout player at this level. Unfortunately, his tools are often mislaid and he has to think. He isn't good at thinking.

    I know you disagree on this, and really rate Jean. Good for you. I really like Berry and Bailey and plenty of others don't. Opinions game.

    I'm told that Dale hurt himself on Saturday in his brief jogging once on as a sub, hence not involved yesterday. It's becoming almost laughable to be honest.

    Agree he's no worse than Stewart on evidence so far like.

    It is too simplistic I feel to just sign players who can score goals. We lack the players who can create goals. Hence recruiting Williams and JoS on much maligned loans. These players could make something happen because they could actually beat a man.

    He does not want to play. It is as simple as that

    £20,000 per month is a bit demotivating I suppose.

    I dont really rate M'Voto. I just think he's better than people give him credit for. In other words I dont think he's ****.

    I have the same opinion of Nyatanga really. If people were saying he was absolutely garbage I would argue his case.

    What I would say though is that when both on top of their game M'voto is a much more effective defender the Lewin. At the same time though M'voto can be the worst defender on the field. As you said though, theres a reason they're both playing mid table in league 1.

    Adam Davies is also out of contract I believe as is Ross Turnbull. I'd be happy with Davies being number one from next season without a doubt.
