    RE: I forgot one - arrange a pre season tour to Portugal!!!

    I'd prefer a pre season tour around Tenerife so I can crash at my Aunties holiday home. Oh and of course visit her if she's still out there at the time. If the following happens i'll be happy........

    1) Steele and Kozluk get signed back up.

    2) Odejayi gets moved on.

    3) We get back Hammill for the whole of next season and don't go back for our other loanees.

    4) Play 442 always and with everyone in the correct position.

    5) Show more passion in interviews. He usually sounds like he's been to a funeral.

    6) Stop looking for excuses so much and just admit mistakes.

    MMMM...

    that would kind of indicate that we had started to win games or at least try to win them and therefore the B*ll*cks about being lucky to be in the division might have stopped too...

    Correct !!!

    Spot on. The real issue is what happens on the pitch. Most of them don't care about the other "soft" issues. They just want to see their team win football matches and some would like to be entertained if possible. The majority of Barnsley fans are realistic about the club and their expectations, but they don't want to be involved in a relegation battle every season.

    Stop being Welsh.

    And lose a few stone.
    It's not good for the image of the club when the Manager looks like he owns a chip shop.

    Sign 2 keepers:

    One form Germany - Koch.
    One from Portugal - Quim.

    I'd love to see Koch & Quim warming each other up before kick off.

    attack at home, attack away

    you have nothing to lose as almost everyone is against you, and if you play any other way you'll also have no job.

    get positive, get attacking and get a strong team together that plays for the club

    Attack teams at home and play 4-4-2

    We are the home side, let the opposition worry about us.

    That's what we did for the two seasons previous to the last one

    And ended up in a pretty similar position.

    I don't get this 4-4-2 = we win games theory. It never has done in the past.

    Our home form was great...

    the season before last, if we had done the same last season, combined with our slighly improved away form we would have been comfortable mid table with an outside chance of the playoffs

    It was our home form that let us down this season. We dropped too many points as a result of negative tactics and formations IMO.
