    I'm down to only attending when I have nothing better to do. Only been to 2 of the last 5 home games. Can't see me renewing. Sad times.

    Very sad times.
    I threw the towel in not long after we sold Hourihane etc... That was a big rug pulled from under our feet.
    Better things to do than get pissed off on a Saturday aft.

    I never thought I'd be glad not to have a season ticket but here we are.

    I'll always be up for the odd away day but I've no interest in going down to Oakwell to watch a bunch of woefully inexperienced kids stumble about gifting the opposition goals.

    Gotta admit going to games is getting tougher to want to go to even with a season pass. As the weather gets worse in the next couple of months, the ground is going to look even emptier from stayaways.

    I'm only going now because I have a season ticket but I'll stay away if I have something better to do.

    Ive got a season ticket but I’m pretty much at that point I think......I’ll have to see the next time the Mrs asks if we are doing anything on a Saturday how I respond. I normally check the fixtures and if we’re at home it’s a “no love Barnsley are at home”, but with a young child I’m starting to think why should I miss going and doing something with her and the wife on one of my only 2 days off a week for a complete waste of an afternoon.

    The worst thing about this predicament for me is, seeing the team being hammered doesn't hurt anymore.

    In your situation I'd definitely spend the time with the little un. They grow up so quick.

    I will carry on going . I've missed out loads of games to be with my young uns and part of the reason last season was so enjoyable was against the rubbish served up by Morais I'm really upset that what should have been a good go at the championship with an exciting passionate manager in charge has deteriorated to even the caretaker manager intimating he's not bothered about getting the job.

    I wouldn’t even mind if we were mainly losing but if we we were going into each game feeling we could be competitive and have a chance of winning, I just don’t get that feeling.

    Im probably just pontificating and will still end up going, I feel guilty when I miss a game I could have made due to a sense of duty, so very rarely have I chosen something over Barnsley, it’s been a wedding or something I can’t say no to, but I’m really not enjoying it at the moment, and in the run up to Christmas there will be plenty of days out I could take my little girl to, my guilt over that may surpass my guilt to not being at oakwell.

    Yet you still seem pissed off and post on a forum after the match

    What's your point pal?

    I don’t have a problem, nor am I stressed and I’ve been to Oakwell. My point is if you’ve stopped going to watch them because your pissed off, then why post on a forum straight after a game in what seems a ‘ pissed off’ way

    Grow up you fekin idiot. You asked me what my point was and‘I’ve stated it. Why come on here making pissed off posts about not going because your fed up of being pissed off. I initially replied to you in a light- hearted way, and to an extent I can see why you were a bit perplexed by it. Now I don’t don’t give a ****

    Same here, decision already been made. Not renewing mine or the three kids season tickets. Will do a few away instead.
