    They are a waste of money, just sit there and listen and don't make any suggestions, been there on the chair ( they don't use a couch) easiest job on the planet. This is really clutching straws now, it's the coach's job to motivate ffs not a psychologist. Talk about abdicating responsibility Lee

    Wait a minute... This is an article by Maurice Watkins, the chairman of Barnsley Football Club.

    He isn't a neutral journalist or sports writer, he's our chairman!

    He isn't taking any responsibility for the current mess or apologising to the fans for the club's poor position.

    Rather than recruiting a psychologist to help asses where we are at and what we need, how about getting some proper experienced footballers signed?

    Maybe I'm missing the point but I find this column bizarre...

    Tell you what Matthew, from time to time I have a grumble about what he's inputting to our cause, and he then seems to emerge and make a public utterance. Strange. We certainly don't seem to have had his Old Trafford gold dust rub off on us so far.

    If they stick with 8LJ much longer it won't be a psychologist we'll need to avoid relegation but a magician.

    personally don't see what's so embarrassing about it. just about every top performing sportsperson in the world, will tell you how important psychology is. it's proven scientific practice. i'll start getting worried, if they get the chaplain involved

    "top performing sportsperson"

    Once they get to that stage then yes it may make an incremental improvement; they've got to get the basics right first though.

    I can just see it: "Now Llew, close your eyes and imagine that that round thing coming towards you is just a bit of leather and air, it's not going to hurt you , you can go near it - IT'S NOT A FUKCIN BOMB".

    Some common sense. My favourite of late is how all the people who claim football isn't complicated, simple game, just needs 4-4-2 etc are suddenly bemoaning LJ's inability to switch formations, plan for the opposition, tactical awareness

    Its called clutching at straws !

    We have been clutching at straws for a while now.

    Perhaps an exorcism may help
