Default Funny old game - Barnsley sack Ritchie...

Well i just got home from work too find that Barnsley have sacked Andy Ritchie Although we're near the bottom at the minute we have played some half decent stuff at home without getting the results - and he was responsible for one of the best days/weekends in my life at the play off final in Cardiff in May - just shows you no job is safe

Well they had a 90 minute phone in, fans for him and against him, but they had interviews with the owner Patrick Cryne, a couple of players, pundits etc and i think the consensus was he had to go - roll on Friday - get the Chron

Biggest load of papp i've ever listened to mate.

Note the intellectuals they actually let on the air. Thats so difficult questions can't be asked cos there feeble brains can't think.

Also the money thing

If you were the manager of a football team and you had x amount of pounds to spend to improve the side you'd spend it. You'd get the chance to work with better players, build a nice squad, get results and enhance your rep. To suggest that he didn't want to spend the coin is ludicrous.

What money he will have had would have been to sign non leagues finest and those animals that play sunday league pub football.

I've heard there's four new loan signings coming on Thursday all from Athersley Rec. Should be fit for setdi if they survive the bare knuckle fight comp in the Welly friday neet

I'd have to disagree. If he had money to strengthen his squad he would have done. If the ship is sinking i'd look at the board/owner. You pay peanuts, what do you expect.

Thing is mate we are. People still live off what happened 10 years ago. We've just come up and we're struggling, as expected. Fourth bottom is a good season.
