    Just seen the goal again. His reaction was absolutely superb. Wasn’t stood right next to it and beat everyone by a country mile to it.

    What evidence do you have to support that assertion?

    Yeah, I don’t agree with that. Unless Vale finish above 6th, which is where I’d predict us to finish if I had to pick a spot right now.

    I agree but it's the experts at the club that you should be smiling at.

    All these folk claiming we should have resigned Cole. Does anyone think for a second he'd have wanted to come back?
    With a choice of us and Port Vale, I think he'd have still chosen there.

    He's excellent at pens. In 30 years of watching us if someone said you can have any ex player take a pen. I'd pick cauley

    Conor would have sold him the dream and highlighted his path to 15+ goals in his team.

    To be fair, I never put Cole or Woodrow forward as signings for us. I just defended their respective Oakwell careers and suggested they weren’t the ‘poor’ signings others reckoned. They will both score regularly at this level.

    I actually felt McAtee would have been a really sensible addition and it’s a shame they couldn’t come to an agreement with his club. I just find it pretty disappointing that after months of being able to, we didn’t strengthen the frontline. Again.

    We can only hope now, that injuries don’t hit in that area.

    My apologies for this very dull and serious post.

    Don't apologise mate you're a great poster.
    Cole or Woodrow would have been great signings that should have been serious and affordable options to improve us further.
