    On average 48 points is enough to see most teams safe!
    We're on 14 with 22 games to go.
    If we win 50% of those it'll give us 47.

    I can't see us winning 1, let alone 11.

    I can hear the fat lady belting out a tune as I type!!

    Better performance 2nd half. We might make mid table - in league 1 next season.

    Yep, we're down. Absolute dead certs for the drop. I only hope they can find the ******** to see the season out with a bit of pride or the renewal :) letter is going straight in the bin.

    Yes, time we start focusing on establishing ourselves in League 1, as we’re more likely to be on a downward slope to League 2. It’ll take some years to see championship football again. But at least we’re not another Bury eh!?

    We were consigned to relegation last summer. Utterly demoralised.

    Just a case of prolonging the season for as long as possible. Mathematically impossible in March/April maybe?

    No signs of any passion, team spirit or fight. We may well go straight through to LG 2 unless we find another Stendel to instil some pride and organisation. The only hope is that Kane comes back revitalised and Hondermarck turns up trumps because we're sadly lacking any creativity in midfield at the moment.

    Sadly yes. Usually optimistic about our chances but there really is very little chance this year.:(

    Yes. It's done. Promotion form now needed to stay up. Starting right now. Really, that's not happening.

    Season was over 6 weeks ago. We're a ******* shambles on and off the pitch.

    When you've got Conference league players in Moon, Palmer and Benson getting game time then you're going to have serious problems.

    Renewing a season ticket with Barnsley FC is akin to paying an hitman to shoot yourself, if there was a modicum of transparency shown by the owners, a show of honesty, an apology even, then maybe you'd consider but as it is these clowns that unfortunately own our club are devoid of honesty. So renew and repent at leisure.

    We'll be needing another head coach come May.
