Difference is they are running the club sustainably (well as much as you can in football) with a plan. Any proof of his wealth, if he had he'd be signing player of Brentfords quality and selling them on. Instead opts for league 1 and 2 players for next to nothing. If Wednesday were to sign 4/5 league 1 players in a transfer window they'd be uproar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just believe that if for instance he had sold forestieri, bannan and hooper after Wembley and replaced them with unknowns the meltdown would have been huge. Unfortunately we don’t have the patience or mindset for a long term plan, most fans were more than happy for him to spend big and go for it no matter the potential pitfalls Your quite correct,wed have all had a hissy fit,but........if wed have been doing our homework on players,as clubs like Brentford,Barnsley,Roverum do,then we could have replaced them fairly cheaply with the likes of Benrhama who moved to Brentford around the same time,maybe Bamford and within a few weeks the moaning would die down and wed have pocketed a tidy profit to re invest and would be worshiping new heros,and just kept that cycle going. But we dont,we sell players like Joao for poor money in a panic sale,we dont utilise his strengths,we play him wide left or wide right drain his confidence,continually sub him off then bench him for months,all Reading have done is play him centrally and give him the confidence,which is EXACTLY what we should have been doing, there were fans on here saying exactly that years ago when he was here.

Congratulations to the Tykes and all for their recent form. You are certainly not delusional. However in football it is never wise to gloat after a brief run of form. Results tend to regress to the mean over the course of a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve been in play off chasing form for 14 months, you’re right though the summer rebuild will put us back 6 months, and selling our head coach towards the end of the year will smart a bit, but we’ll still be in a better position then SWFC.

Which it seems is the most important thing for Barnsley fans. Your clearly a much better team then us right now but I still don't think you will finish as much as 25 points above us.
