Except.... we had loan spaces available to us and what did we take.... a midfielder, to go along with all the other midfielders...Agree with this, not a McCann fan but can't blame him/Darnborough for recruitment, we're basically in a take what we can get situation, we're working to a budget and that budget doesn't really allow for us to sign experienced championship players
Which is why Steve Bruce walked all those years ago, plus Nigel Adkin. Whilst pollock brain is at the helm we’ve no chance of a decent manger, league standing or, dare I say it, support!Agree with this, not a McCann fan but can't blame him/Darnborough for recruitment, we're basically in a take what we can get situation, we're working to a budget and that budget doesn't really allow for us to sign experienced championship players

Especially not him mate.Jesus
Seem to remember Daniel Ayala been a very good 20 year old defender for us and james Chester at 21
There will be others I can’t remember
This team will do better with different coach FACT
His obsession to sign slater was nothing short of bizarre.
Coventry came up season before and haven’t done too badly have they without making big money signings.
Plenty of league one players can make the step up
But they need to play in a team that has a system that can be changed and adapted! we don’t
I imagine most coaches would love to get their hands on Malik Wilks. A player with skills ability pace but playing like a **** who dived at every opportunity and makes ridiculous decisions
Hey ho
We have some really talented youngsters but they’re raw. I don’t for one second believe coaches like Chris Wilder, Nigel Pearson, Eddie Howe, Valérien Ismaël or even Neil Warnock wouldn’t get more out of this squad of players, particular the younger ones like Wilks, KLP, Greaves etc.
I doubt Barnsley are big spendersexactly, we need an experienced manager who can coach these players every day & teach them what they have learnt over many years. But a decent manager expects a decent salary & will want money to spend in the Jan window. We can only pray that the alleged sale of the club actually happens & we get new owners that will fund both of these things
