Must really get to Barnsley fans that we seem to do it with ease almost every time we play them, even when we are terrible. Heh heh. :claping hands::claping hands::claping hands:

I dunno, Holt, Jackson and to a degree Martin made their names in the lower leagues (best season for Martin was last year). I reckon Mackail-Smith has more Championship starts (and goals?) from last season than any of them in their careers, bar maybe Holt. And that's from this season only. It's...

Ha ha, I still reckon he's more of a David Dickinson shade, but spouts about as much sense as Swiss Tony! At least he had a gameplan... Maybe by the time he leaves he'll have a breakdown a bit like "Swiss" does at the end?!

Hiya, procdoc, welcome! Didn't Phillips end up as Championship top-scorer whilst at WBA? Then when he was released he went to Championship Birmingham for their promotion season( because he wanted first-team football, from what I remember)? Sounds like a realistic target, as long as he doesn't...

Yeah, it's that crazy "phase of play" crap that you need a qualification in Quantum Physics to understand...Quantum Physics being officially recognised as "more complicated" than Rocket Science these days :p

Speedo was awesome, possibly his hatrick against Sheff Wed was my fave. But crikey, just how many goals did David Smith set up back in the day? Some cracking crosses in the Speedie compilation, lovely left-foot. I always remembered him as too slow to beat a man, but this footage proves...

Absolutely. He actually changed the shape from a Mourinho-style 4-1-2-3 to a classic 4-1-2-1-2 Diamond for Saturday. That was incredibly brave and requires real graft as the former is more like 1 central striker : positioning Sheff in "the hole" meant Eastwood and King were narrow rather than...

I don't think so as in previous high-profile cases (Grant, Southgate perhaps, Platt in Italy? ) they were given a deadline to get them by. Although Platt got around it anyway by using technicalities of job title, having a qualified Assistant. So tbh we can just turn round and say Harrison and...

Andy Thorn for manager!!! 2 best pasing displays of the season in his 3 games in charge, what can he and Harrision do with longer on the training ground with these players? Clearly a smashing bloke and a good motivater-I can feel that Crazy Gang teamspirit already, the goal celebrations were...

Definitely nothing wrong with the first, as Loach himself admits! He just dropped it and it bounced off Lukas and in. I will say that he made a couple of other good saves from King and McSheffrey, so didn't have a complete 'mare. Second one is tougher.."I've seen them given", but I reckon he...

Moff, are you the real Moff? Or just someone who rings up CWR pretending to be Moff?!

I'd wager after that interview that McSheffrey was one of the guys unhappy with the long-ball style of play! Ditto Bell given the interview he did with the Telegraph last week. What a transformation in performance by them both.

I'm pretty new here but find it pretty fairly to use, worth perservering until you get the hang!:welcome:

Yeah, it must be annoying to be Canadian and mistaken for American all the time! A bit like the New Zealand / Australia thing in "Flight of The Conchords" ! I particularly like the episode where one wakes up to discover he's got drunk and shagged an Aussie bird, the ultimate cultural faux-pas...

Steve Bull always said the players at the top are there due to hunger, pride and ambition-they work that much harder to get the best out of their talent. Bullly reckoned he was a "rubbish" player-not good enough for the league, never mind England-but there was no-one in the game as determined...

Agree with most that beens said, regarding Turner and Cameron in particular. And that dizzying moment when we were 4th and had belief again, just for a short while. Shame it didn't last, but for a moment it was an enjoyable (if ugly ) mirage. I don't think we'll ever know if it could have...

Agreed, he was very lively yesterday and looked more like the cracking player he was at Bristol C. Surely more suited to this style, and the central-left role suits his swesome workrate too. But I still can't understand why Aidy completely bombed him out, even if he wasn't in his long-term...

We are a cynical bunch, perhaps with good reason, but I don't think many clubs fans are so impatient with their homegrown youngsters. As I said, Cameron was getting loads of moans and groans before he even came on yesterday. Turner, Clarke, Eustace (just because it was the epitome of wit to call...

Yes! I was surprised he didn't start today as he's been a different player of late. His flick for Bells goal at Preston was class, and he was superb at Burnley. It's worth saying that at Motherwell last season the fans thought he was rubbish until Xmas. By the end of the season he was the...

Bit worried that Bell has a knock, I didn't know that. But McIndoe did pretty well when he came on, making 2 good challenges in his own box and carving out a decent chance for Lukas late on. He certainly has a point or 2 to prove. Seeing the goals again, a lovely pass along the floor by Sammy...
