    Tuned in and expected to see lots of reds in their national side given our focus on recruiting from their league. Shock. Horror. Not a single one. We aren't even shopping in Asda. We are shopping in Lidl in a country that has no supermarkets. Can this board please just go away. Not all of us are stupid.

    Are you being serious? Why would a player in the Austrian national team want to play for Barnsley? Most of them play in the top teams in Germany or other teams at the highest level. Austria might not be footballing giants, but I think you're underestimating them a little.

    Oostende fan tuning into England v Belgium and being confused when they cannot spot McGeehan and Sibbick.

    I'd be confused if I saw mcgeehan as he's a northern ireland representative.

    Haha, fair enough. This reminds me of my dad saying the next England manager should be English. "Someone like Martin O'Neill"

    Played for them at youth levels up to under 21 so maybe he could still turn out for England - I think

    This logic makes no sense. So you think signing Europa League talent from Austria is bad because they aren't in national team (although Schmit is in u21) but yet we can sign an English player who will never play for England and hasn't played any youth level either (most of our English signings) and that's fine?

    Brilliant!

    "He's no Scottish?" "No mate he plays for Finland"
