We're at the lowest point that I've experienced in my 33 years. It's torrid. However, I still look at our strongest XI and see it as more than a match for the vast majority of clubs in this division, including Coventry. But we're without Hourihane and Watkins who are massive for us and the...

From a Barnsley supporter, had to just come on to say 'wow'. Wow. But, I look forward to Josh Scowen crunching him within a minute on the 3rd November. :guitar2:

I agree with that. I think Wigan and dem blades have the squads to get automatic, I fancy Bradford, Donny and Rochdale to go well too. I'd happily settle for 6th right now.

I think money talks and we could sign any of them, but not all of them. Would prefer McLeod to be honest, he's what we lack, a big lad up there. It's our youngest squad ever. Yesterday's XI: Davies (23); Holgate (18), Roberts (24), Mawson (21), Nyatanga (26), Smith (18); Pearson (20)...

We haven't signed him. He's here on trial, training. We've bids in for Ian Henderson, Izale McLeod, Tom Bradshaw and Paddy Madden. I'm assuming we'll sign two strikers, and any two of those will do for me at this level. Our manager says Jackson is unlikely to get a contract unless we can't get...

I thought you were a threat first half, Tudgay hit the post, but we bossed possession in difficult conditions and always looked the more likely second half. The wind played its part throughout, but I think we dominated mainly due to our midfield three. It wasn't a great display from us, it's not...

Barnsley, pal.

Delighted for you all. Back home. #AgainstModernFootball

Obviously, I decided against making the trip to Northampton, but listened to commentary and we sounded lucky not to be three or four goals down after 20, 25 minutes. Defence all over the shop. But I think we seemed to get a grip of things towards half time, although I consider us fortunate to...

http://www.barnsleyfc.co.uk/news/article/jim-obrien-thanks-reds-fans-for-the-memories-1732608.aspx Top bloke, wish him all the best at CCFC.

The bloke who took us to the Premier League playing like Brazil? Best brand of football I've ever seen us play was under him for four solid years. Last season though, once he returned, it wasn't pretty, but he's building his own squad now and so we'll see if he's still got it. Long gone are...

Heyup old lad. Thought you lot were too massive for us pub league forums?:laugh:

Cheers. I've always found this to be a decent forum. Very active, very good debates, and Coventry are a club I've really grown fond of since this whole SISU bollocks.

I totally get that. I write for our club fanzine. I'll be on here well in advance of that particular fixture to hopefully get an article from one of you guys on what we at 'WSB' see as a fantastic stand against modern football and it's ills.

How many do you get on a normal 'home' day then?

I'm excited about finally seeing the promising kids we've got. With Jennings, Noble-Lazarus and Digby in midfield, plus the kid Hourihane we've signed, we ought to see a more exciting brand of football. If we can keep O'Grady, and both Hoskins and Hemmings chip in with goals too, I think we'll...

You mean twitter. And you do realise Neil (who runs Owlstalk) follows me on there don't you? And that it was a bit of banter between us? I'd throw summat a little too high at you if I could, as it's clear you're good for things going clean over your head. #ClosetStalker

As for Cranie, I'm not arsed if he goes. He's relegation from the Championship material, but nothing more. If getting him off the wage bill helps plus a fee of 500k or so I'd be satisfied with that.

LOL. I posted the wrong link. What a wally. :facepalm: I'll try again, here: http://tomfurnivaladams.wordpress.com/2014/07/04/jim-obrien-a-barnsley-perspective/

I gave my thoughts to one of your supporters/bloggers earlier on Jim O'Brien. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11095/9371899/transfer-news-barnsley-defender-martin-cranie-is-wanted-by-a-number-of-championship-clubs? And if true that you've signed Reda Johnson, I can tell you that...
