    What's so wrong with wanting to support your football team.We have massive problems at Oakwell from top to bottom but that won't stop me from watching my club even if it means relegation.Its not about putting up with what we're getting for me its about supporting my club through thick and thin.As I've said before the highs feel better when you've experienced the lows.

    I agree. I've always said that fans of Man Utd, Arsenal etc will never know what Promotion to the Premier was like for us.
    BUT
    I'm just not going to drag kids from one disappointing match to another, when I could be doing something more enjoyable.

    Who has said there is a problem with supporting the team?
    I will always be a fan of Barnsley, i will always go to Oakwell, but I dont have to like what I am given every week, I think we should be able to voice our concerns , just as we would if it was any other form of entertainment. Just because it has been worse , it does not mean it has to get that bad again!

    Lemmings support their leaders, and they all go over the cliff. Follow Hill at your peril mate.

    I have stopped believing that Hill can do anything except take us down, I no longer support him as our manager but I still support Barnsley. There is a difference.

    Thats my current position as well - I've seen us relegated from the first second and 3rd tiers and I am still here ( seen us promoted to them all as well)
    I dont ever remember such a bad home run though - it does make it hard to drag myself up for the games and I do tend to miss more when we are going through a bad patch

    I cant see us staying up unless something significant changes - and I cant see that happening either
