    Barnsley and the FA Cup

    Only £15 adults. Think you'd sold 2,500 last time I heard. Dagnall returns to us on Friday. Be interesting if he starts.

    Careful... :)

    Chris Dagnall

    I think football league rules state he can't be recalled until 28 days have expired on the loan, so no worries there. Thing is for us, we've allowed Flitcroft to farm out Daggers, McNulty, Noble-Lazarus, Jennings etc, then sacked him. I agree with his dismissal, though. 2 wins in 17, 6...

    Dale Jennings

    Had five games for us. But never in succession. Hardly going to write him off at this stage, but we expected a lot more from him.

    With me being a Barnsley supporter, I think I'm qualified to judge. :D I love Daggers. Check my twitter page and see who I'm pictured with on my avatar thing... @Andy__White Proper grafter, 100% effort, an absolute pain in the backside for the opposition. He went about 20 games without...

    What's gone off then??

    I hope so. Believe me, every weekend I've cheered as he guided you further up the table. I especially cheered your recent victory at the Blunts of Bumhole Lane. I was hoping you'd stop them and Donny going up. Maybe you still can/will? Good luck to you.

    What's gone off then??

    I've not got the time to read through every thread, but I take it there's a degree of bad feeling surrounding Mark's departure? All I'm aware of is that he's now Huddersfield manager. How was his tenure in your opinions? As you may be aware, I posted a thread on here in September...

    Coventry VS Bournemouth

    Heyup again. Noticed you'd won, and so I thought I'd pop over and congratulate you. I did say Mark's teams weren't exciting to watch, but that he gets results. He'll have you around the top ten by xmas. Again, well done, and good luck. :)

    Any of you lot watch our game today?

    If I divulged that, I wouldn't ever be told anything, would I? It's been discussed. Nothing finalised yet.

    Any of you lot watch our game today?

    He was on our bench today, so that surprised me. I hope it comes off for you. Robins adored him.

    Any of you lot watch our game today?

    That performance, that type of football, is exactly why I prefer Keith Hill to Mark Robins. And all without a loan player.... ;) Gutted for you lot earlier. But give Mark a chance (my opening sentence was sarcastic btw) and he'll soon have you picking up enough points. Early days, and I hope...

    Mark Robins (a Barnsley perspective)

    The fact that Coleman selected Rob "used to score goals years ago" Earnshaw in his last Wales squad, rather than our own Craig Davies (4 goals in 6 games) automatically makes him shit in my eyes.

    Mark Robins (a Barnsley perspective)

    It's very much split down the middle, pal - our fans' opinion of Robins' tenure/achievements. Good luck against Carlisle. I'll have a keen eye on the game, before we kick off ourselves at tea-time.

    robins barnsley formation at cov

    I can't say for certain whether he'll still play the same tactics/formation. I mean, it's been nearly 18 months since he left, and so perhaps he'll see things differently. The 4-2-2-1-1 was more like this: -------------GK RB-------CH------CH------LB ----------DM----DM...

    Mark Robins (a Barnsley perspective)

    He's not that sort of bloke, or manager. He's more of an 'arm round the shoulder' type of bloke. However, he WILL get rid of anyone he deems unworthy (in his opinion), and WILL recruit/replace.

    Mark Robins (a Barnsley perspective)

    I don't really subscribe to the "we're bigger, we're better" bollox, as I couldn't really care less. I'm a Barnsley lad, Barnsley fan. We're the best. And I'm sure you feel the same for your club. That's how it should be. I mean, nobody would choose to support Barnsley or Coventry would they...

    Mark Robins (a Barnsley perspective)

    It should be noted that the Barnsley FC accounts for the year about to end i.e. May 2011 would pass the break-even test as currently drafted by the Football League based on current TV-based revenues. It is in this context that Mark Robins attended the Board meeting last week to discuss ideas...

    Mark Robins (a Barnsley perspective)

    I'd agree with you on the bigger club theory. History doesn't lie. You get better crowds, have had 30+ years in the top flight, and won the FA Cup (as have we). You're a city club. We're a small town club sandwiched between Leeds and Sheffield. However, I'd hardly call our current run a...

    Mark Robins (a Barnsley perspective)

    Yeah, I did get a bit childish. More out of frustration than anything. I doubt you'll find a less arrogant set of supporters than us lot. We know exactly who and what we are, and it's our happy-go-lucky nature that makes me proud to be a BFC fan. I will however, point out (perhaps...
