    JCH - did we really misjudge him ?

    I’ve seen more of JCH than Bakayoko and personally preferred JCH at the time. Bakayoko is doing a good job (scoring-wise) at the minute so good for him, and good for us. I hadn’t heard these rumours that we tried to offload Bakayoko first, where has this come from?

    JCH - did we really misjudge him ?

    He did have the 'worst' goals to game ratio of our 4 strikers... I thought JCH changed our dimension a lot even when he wasn't scoring and, in my view, was underrated by a lot of our fans, but if he was a disruptive influence, he's got to be shipped on.

    JCH - did we really misjudge him ?

    I thought he was a good player for us, but when a player becomes a disruptive influence on the group, they’ve got to go and their talent is irrelevant. So, if the rumours are true, Robins made the right choice. We’ve done better since he’s gone, and he’s done better at his new club. That’s a...

    Match Thread Barnsley vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 30th Mar

    The situation hasn’t particularly changed materially because we still have to win as many games as possible down this stretch because we play Doncaster on the last day. Even if we fall away, I’m happy with this season and think it sets us up well going into next season. Regardless, I walk away...

    Match Thread Barnsley vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 30th Mar

    Not necessarily, to say Doncaster have 6th place locked down is pretty foolish. Doncaster are certainly favourites for that last playoff place, 5-6pts over 6 games is doable. After all, it wasn’t long ago that we were 10pts off and that all changed after 3-4 games unbeaten and playoffs...

    Match Thread Barnsley vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 30th Mar

    Playoffs haven’t been bombed at all. There’s 6 games left and we play Doncaster on the last day of the season. Our minimum goal should be to cut the deficit to 2 points going into the final game.

    Dry cleaning

    Johnson's do dry cleaning and they have a few places dotted around the city, they're pretty good because they've got stains out of my university rugby ties which I was sure were ruined.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    The reason the whole political system is deadlocked is that Brexit is a rather vague concept. In short, leaving the EU as a member is entirely different from leaving the European Economic Area, the Customs Union and Single Market. These fundamental differences made it pretty likely that we were...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    What happens next is pretty interesting as some Government sources reckon a General Election will be called if the deal was rejected today.

    Should Sambou have stayed...?

    In terms of progression as a footballer, it wasn't the right move. More and more, we're seeing players make the grade in League 1 and the Championship and earn big contracts with Premiership clubs, for example, Alli, Maddison and Wilson to name a few. If he had the talent, to earn a move to a...

    Montenegro

    It's only two games in, but you must have been impressed with the performances we've put out under Southgate, the Czech Republic is the 2nd seed in our group and Montenegro has been a difficult place to go for past England teams, and to come away with 10 goals is fantastic. I'd agree that past...

    Jack Grimmer

    I think it’s best for both parties if he moves on. His goal at memorable was one of my favourite goals as a supporter. But, if we’re to challenge for playoffs in the future, he isn’t going to be a starting option it would seem.

    The Hoffman bid

    We’ve struggled at times because we can’t finish our chances. These are all professional athletes, I don’t think the off-field stuff affects them at all really. It’s not like we’re facing a points deduction where that potentially affects the players.

    Feelings Towards Ricoh Arena Now

    I feel like a 25-27k seater stadium would suit us quite well. But, that’s only a bit bigger than HR, so ultimately, we would’ve been better off staying there. I like the RICOH, but as you say, it’s inextricably linked to our decline. For some reason I have an ilking that our wider support...

    Tim said we are moving to rugby

    I’m hoping this doesn’t mean we can’t stay at the RICOH. But, if we can’t stay at the RICOH, we need a Plan B and Rugby or Nuneaton would probably be the next best thing after the RICOH. If Wasps are refusing to talk, we don’t have much of a choice, and I hope Wasps do negoiate. Things could...

    Head of Recruitment Interview

    Wingers and strikers too probably... in Jan a lot of people didn’t fancy Baka or Chaplin. Bright was seemingly signed to play on the wing which didn’t last very long.

    Head of Recruitment Interview

    He’s an interesting player, 6”4, is quite quick and young. Potentially a diamond in the rough if he’s coached properly.

    Breaking- New Consortium Bid

    I think there’s a danger in just wanting SISU out just for getting them out. Personally, I’m not sure if I trust Hoffman exactly. Seems to have been tricked by that Dale Evans character, and the consortium’s offer of the Wilson sell-on money makes me question if they actually have money behind...

    Robins has to go in the summer / 02476 555 555

    Agreed, and good analysis as per. In fairness to Robins, I'd rather be a team that holds onto a lead than a team that is good at coming back. Our comeback record has improved on last season, which was woeful with only 1 or 2 wins all season from a losing position. If we can improve on our...

    11 wins from 19 remaining games to make playoffs

    It's a cliche, but we've got to take it one game at a time because we've only got to get 2 more points (with GD) than Doncaster over the next 8 games whilst remaining ahead of Peterborough and Blackpool. They still have to play Luton and Sunderland, and a few potential banana skins in teams...
