    Well he's said what we all probably want to hear. Let's hope the players do what he wants because actions are more important than words.

    It wouldn't surprise me if we ran around a lot more, showed more commitment but still lost 2-0 - 1 from a set piece and 1 from a basic defensive error

    “It’s a non-negotiable in terms of work rate.”

    That sounds better already. All the best Martin

    How refreshing to hear something like that for a change.

    It’s a football club that I love
    I’m a Barnsley boy now and the fans appreciate that
    Under me, there will be fight, there will be commitment
    I know what a Barnsley team looks like
    It’s a non-negotiable in terms of work rate

    Off to a flyer Disco. Exactly what needs to be said. Sadly the last two dumplings never came close.

    Did he say "His hands were tied" at one point? I thought I heard that, but not sure in response to what he was asked.

    I was at a dinner on Thursday and had the pleasure of sitting next to Gary Jones formerly of this parish and Jamie Lawrence former Bradford City and Jamaica. Both impressive guys in their own right and what came across so clearly from them was that football is a very simple game, get everyone working for each other, with clear instructions and you’re more than halfway there.

    Good luck MD. COYR.

    Thought it was quite a poor presser tbh Marc. Compare that to Mads Anderson who answered every question honestly Martin did the most of I can't answer that I've heard in a long time. And I've heard that quite a lot this season.

    “I know it’s been difficult this season, but we’ll be doing our best to perform at a high standard and try to win.”

    That's all I want to hear from a manager!

    All I ask is that people remember that we have 3 meaningless games to play this season. All I want from the remaining games is to be entertained and see a bit of effort. If we win, great but if we lose at least do it with a bit of spirit.

    Heaven help him !
    Good luck Martin, I think you are going to need it. Don't forget to remind "them" that you are in charge of team selection, even if you're not.

    I just want to see some goals, at the correct end, not stats which show 19 Shots, 11 On Target and Zero goals.

    Motivation Mr Devaney, let's not finish bottom, let's not finish below a team that had 21pts deducted. You can do it Owd Warrior, C.O.Y.R.
