Haven't seen this mentioned anywhere but has anyone else noticed that our current positive form is based at the back primarily by 3 of last season's key Barnsley players ? Collins, Thomas and Kitching were all part of their lacklustre season in League One but this season, they've come together and have really made our defence pretty rocksteady. Not discounting the efforts of the other 8 starters but it did tickle me a bit at how all three have risen to the task they've been given.

Wonder if we can "rob" any other League One clubs of key players for our continued assault in the Championship ?

Okay, I got it wrong. Again. Sorry, I'll go hide in the corner and shut up

Seems everyone on here wants to have a shot at me so congrats, you're the straw that broke the camel's back. Back to lurker mode.

Wtf? You made a statement, I pointed out (politely!) it was nonsense! Talk about throwing your toys out the pram!

I mean what do you want me to say, that missing out on promotion having had the better of the game despite being down to 10 men was indeed lacklustre? Would that sate your ego if I agreed with you even if what you put down is absolute bollocks?

Oh dear. Haven't seen a flounce for a while. You should be like me and disappear into the shadows quietly.

Collins wasn't in goal for half the season. They had James Trafford on loan for the second half of the season.

Nah, that was Bolton!

(Although you are right about Collins not being in, they had some geezer from Charlton)

Thought it was Trafford... Knew they had a loan keeper in. Should have done better for the (winning - I think) goal at Wembley - can't think who it was now!!!.....

Sorry, I meant a gezer from Luton, he's at Charlton now!

Not that I can remember his actual name, and to Google would be cheating...

I even corrected myself, so does that mean I have to announce my lack of posting in the future...?

If you keep shooting at people they end up shooting back

Keep posting mate. I don’t think the reply to you was personal, just pointing it out. Most people on here seem like decent folk. Hope you’re having a lovely festive time

It’s quite easy to see why the three of them are a bit all or nothing. Both of our centrebacks are very comfortable on the ball and do take risks. Same with Collins as well. When it’s working, it’s great and gives the team a lot but it goes downhill very quickly when it goes wrong.
