    thoughts on this summers recruitment:(purely mine) priorities surely would be replacing Mowatt and Dike,have we done that?
    Do we stick with Styles at Left wing back leaving Benson,Palmer and Kane to fight it out for the centre mid spots or as it appears contemplate bringing another left wing back in and put Styles and 1 other for the midfield spots.
    As for the strikers Cole,Oulare and Leya are unproven and 2 of the 3 have gone AWOL.
    Morris being injured is a major blow.Woodrow only scores penalties,We have Odour who probably should be nailing a position at left wing back down looks no better than the day he signed for us.An finally an Austrian who works hard but that’s what I expect of anyone that pulls a red shirt on.
    Recruitment:Fail to prepare prepare to fail.
    Rant over.

    Far too early to be judging the transfer window, particularly as it hasn’t even shut yet!

    Think back to when we signed Mowatt as Hourihane’s replacement. How long did it take Mowatt to finally show something? Admittedly he could’ve shown something possibly but got shipped out.

    In Benson I am very optimistic he will go on to be a good player for us but again, it’s early days.

    Once we have a fully fit squad, or at least Morris back and the Belgians featuring, I think we’ll offer much more attacking threat.

    No time for ranting, let’s get behind them and support our club.

    Impossible to know 3 games in. Like every year we are rebuilding. Christmas will see where we are for this year and March may be a crunch time again.

    Think it’s going to be a long hard season even at this early stage.

    That's par for the course with Barnsley, poor start last season BUT anything can also happen with Barnsley.

    The fact Schopp has no or very little experience of championship football also worries me.

    I don't think you can comment on the summer business when 80% of it is usually done on transfer deadline day.

    Yeh,us tarn fans should never give up hope after the miracle season,last yr was unexpected,this yr 3 games in, hope new manager does well because if were gonna make money by developing players we have to play football. Were missing a flair player,someone who can run at them,get us driving forwards,i thought styles was going to be that player in midfield,only 1 redders.

    It reminds of the early Struber era.
