    I think this too. The dreadful start to the season has changed perceptions vs. two months ago. I said it in another thread, but the majority wanted minimal upheaval this transfer window.

    Pre-yesterday we'd lost Brown and brought four in. Struber has let us down more than the board in the last three weeks for me.

    Write a letter, send an email, tweet, don't buy the next game, write to the chronicle, don't buy owt from club shop, message YT on here. Probably other stuff as well. Also be specific about what you're concerned about.

    There was one in August 2009, after we'd lost 3-1 at home to Reading, against Simon Davey. He was sacked an hour, or so, later.

    Within a month he'd got us out of the bottom three and we never entered it again whilst he was manager.

    That season we flirted with the Play-offs but hammerings at Ipswich, Bristol City and Newcastle put pay to that dream.

    Or go to church and pray for divine intervention. Just as risky to your health, but more chance of getting someone to listen.

    That Newcastle defeat was pretty bad as well :( getting pillocked by my Sunderland mate afterwards wasn't very pleasing. Comments like "did you have a girlie playing in nets?" "team on the beach already?" etc etc :)

    Struber worked hard to keep us up last season and clearly wasn't convinced that the board were willing to recruit much-needed quality to avoid a repeat of last year. I can't fault him for that, his career is on the line and they are wanting him to do it with both hands tied behind his back, so disagree that he's let us down.

    Don't think he's let us down overall in the slightest. I said just in the last three weeks when his head has obviously gone2. He's lost one player from the squad that he proudly said was mid-table on lockdown form. There's no doubt we're a couple short, but he hasn't had his hands tied behind his back - that's how most of the team probably felt playing out of position, being overlooked for Victor, and seeing Ritz in the Starting XI week in week out.

    Saturday was one of the most inept performances I've seen by a Barnsley manager since Johnson at Altrincham and Wilson away at Swindon. Discarding Crawley away as we had a caretaker in charge I think.
