To me great football is high octane attacking grafting football. That’s what we’ve played or tried to play for the last 10 years. Until this last bloke decided he couldn’t do it and decided to playing boring shite 

Which wasn't happening under Duff or on a regular basis to get results good enough for autos 

See Cheltenham as well, boring as fuck under him 

And Swansea who pride themselves on the things you talk about, yet they sacked him 

The dull football didn't start under Collins

Last season was like watching Real Madrid compared to this season.

Luckiest Head Coach we’ve ever had, the amount of games we’ve won that we should’nt have and last minute winners at home was ridiculous then is luck run out. 

Sounds like morale is very low at your club.

Unusual really for a team who finished 6th.

He'll be back with us next year, or an approach being made. 

I agree. I think he'll be back here next year ... And I think he'll be a great addition.

Maybe offer Morley in part exchange.

If we were to go up, I'd rather we tapped up that Randal for Peterbourgh, proper player him.

But not good enough for us if we get promoted and want to establish ourselves in the championship.

I’m talking about Connell.

Bit you also thought that Maghoma wasn't up to it.

 

.... And/but, in fairness I didn't think Sheehan was, and he's turned out to be one of the best players in this league.

3 vloggers including a Barnsley fan in the away end 

1 is a Bolton fan but there seems to be a joke that he never goes either

2 ex pros in Jon parkin and Chris Brown. 

The Bolton fan confusingly is Chris Brown too. 
 

We ended up on a night out with them in Hamburg 5 years ago and are great lads.

Mentioned it on Friday and they remembered. It may of helped that they and some others missed their flights home.

They do a podcast called undr the cosh and it’s really good. Looks at a lot of off the pitch stuff as well as on. Well worth a listen if you are looking for something new

Is Maghoma good enough for championship? again I ain’t sure he is… still can’t put 90 minutes in at league one level.

I thought I saw Parkin coming out of the bogs but thought it can’t be him.

He won’t be in L1 next season.

If you watch the video, they stitch him up and he’s fuming

I asked the question is he good enough for the championship? He might be but he’s not been consistent or played many 90 minutes this season, Thomason and Sheehan both had better seasons than Maghoma and same question could be asked of those 2.  It does raise some of our fans blood pressure when you question Maghoma.

Not sure it raised my blood pressure but I’ll try to keep calm😂

Saying he won’t be L1 was me saying he is better than this level. Championship may be his ceiling but it’s not L1. 
All opinions but I feel you may be doubling down here instead of saying I may of called it wrong.

I’ve praised Maghoma recent form (I was also doubtful about Thomason and he’s proved me wrong) it’s not doubling down it’s a genuine question because he’s not consistent and doesn’t finish the 90 mimutes, the lads got something but he’s coming up 23 and will he progress enough to be championship quality. I guess got to trust Evatt to make the call he sees him day in day out.

If Maghoma hasnt got enough for the Championship then we have a hell of a lot of recruitment to do if we go up..... fwiw I think he'll  thrive at that level and I expect a big performance from him at Wembley.

I don't think the standard this year is any different to any other year.

I just think last season it was incredibly high.

All 3 teams stopped up in Championship and one is now a Premier League team 🤯

The massive financial punt paid off massively for them, fair play.

The three that went up came straight back down, and the three that came down finished top 4 

It's tough at the top

Of course we could do a Luton but thinking  I'll take some relegation scraps and mid table mediocrity if it's between that and being the "best football team in league one"

He might get a shot at Brentford he's that good.

He’s nowhere near ready for a starting place in the premier league in my opinion, find it staggering some of our fans rate him so highly.

Nobody expected Connor Bradley to breakthrough into the Liverpool team. 

He's a cut above at this level. He goes past players like they aren't there. For me he definitely has the ability to play in the prem , just needs consistency but in terms of ability he's definitely got it.

Agree he's good but know were near prem level yet.Having said that I think he would hold his own in the championship
