A/ 8.333% chance of autos. B/ 16.666% chance of making the play-offs (and a 25% chance of winning them thereafter... if we do get in them). C/ 75% chance of us staying in this godforsaken league. (By the end of normal season/prior to play-offs) D/ "You should have stated the "I'd say..." bit in your first post. You initially made it appear to be fact (In which case your figures were wrong), when it was mere opinion all along. E/ I'm calling utter tosh, and/or wummery of the first degree.

I love the banter as much as anyone, and if there's any pisster be taken, I'll happily jump the queue... but give them and him credit. In this day and age, getting up there is difficult to say the least, staying there is a massive achievement, and for whatever reasons (3 or more worse teams etc) and whoever finishes the job, staying up a second time is nigh on fantasy land. OK... yeah... he's pug-ugly... they have extra digits... and pink seats... and inter-relational activities etc, etc... but on this particular topic, I'd rather keep schtum. As "bad" as things are for them at present, they're well in the lead in the current stage of the A52 Rally! I'd do something very unhealthy with my right arm to be in the position they are in right now. Now, pass me a bucket...

The worst Barnsley team to venture out of Yorkshire since 1894, I heard.

I'm the same mate. Worried I might miss summat! 🤣

Have we had 4 already? Blimey, we really are doing well. 🤣

You can have that on a technicality, but if you didn't have me on ignore, you'd have noticed I got us to the end of January...

Are Wembley tickets classed as "Away", or "Neutral"? Asking for a long term ST holder that is becoming rather excited now that the weather is starting to perk up a bit, and realising that hey, maybe a trophy is as good as an actual cup afterall... etc... etc...

Finally... We agree! 😉

Wasn't he given a 4 year contract? Wasn't there a 5 year plan to become established in The Championship? What am I missing, here? etc, etc...

You've already identified the fact that they're trolls. That's the hard bit done. Ignore them. Laugh it off. Raise your eyes and move on. There's plenty of decent posters/posts to make it all worthwhile. Let's hear no more of this downbeat kerfaffle! This is not the @angieram we have grown to love!

How can this be? 🤷‍♂️ According to xG, he was sacked in August! LINK... 👀

Of course it is. I'm not disputing that. Such a scenario could likely lead to a team being labelled "The team with the lowest points total in history". But I wouldn't equate that with our fabled "Worse team in history" label. We "achieved" our points total solely on the pitch. Solely on results. Solely in the spirit of football. Solely on the fact we were managed by a dwarf... then a porn star... and at least one of our players had a head shaped like a 50p piece. Anyone finishing on ten or less points due to points deductions would be a different "record" entirely. (I hasten to add... If they finished on 7 points, after a 3point deduction, then of course, I wouldn't argue that they hadn't taken our record away, as they only earned 10 points on the pitch any way!) As for where we are now, the reality is that we got relegated due to cheating the system/going into administration/breaking the rules... not solely as a result of our on-pitch performances/results. We're in danger of going around in circles. I simply see a points deduction as a whole different scenario to our 07/08 season. Neither of us are wrong... we're just looking at it from a different viewpoint. 🐏🍻

Oh, I agree that points deductions are real. That’s not an issue. But our 11point record was “achieved” without a points deduction. Any team who earns 18 points on the field then had 8 deducted would not be “The worst team in history”! Maybe if the points deduction was for playing players that shouldn’t have played, therefore cheating on the pitch to achieve those 18 points, then of course I’d concede you have a point (no pun intended!) but not for off-field financials irregularities.

Damn... got distracted...

This is the internet. Consider your words carefully. Repeat... carefully.

I ain't gonna ask! 🤣

🎵 Forest (U21's) are Losing! 🤪

For info... The EFL Cup: The EFL Trophy: Different competitions, on different levels. If we are to win the damn thing, the least we can do is show it a little respect! 😁

"We"? I bet you could wind him up on your own. You manage ok on here! 👀

So bad, it's advertising the wrong competition! 👀

Home Win 6-2 Collins frgs

Hmmm... I may have a re-think, and I may get back to you! 😁
