Although not being able to attend, after reading the commentary ( http://www.barnsleyfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10309~2400179,00.html )
it seems as though 'Hillcroft' have wasted no time in Spain trying to make a hungry and ambitious team from the players they have brought in alongside existing squad members. I know that pre-season friendlies don't really have much importance in the general scheme of things, but if the team can work together during the forthcoming campaign as they appear to be doing in pre-season, then I personally think things may be becoming a little rosier than in previous seasons. At least one can hope!

The point I am trying to make (considering I did mention the relative unimportance of pre-season friendlies) is that it gives the team a chance to get used to playing together with new members. Regardless of the class of opposition, its a run out for the new squad, and hopefully we can carry the new 'up and at 'em' spirit into the forthcoming season.
OR .... I could just go ... Boooooooooooooooooooooo!

Yes, Grimsby; some of you are so predictable. How on earth do you get out of bed in a morning!
It's easy to make cheap jibes; most of us don't care what you say or think!
Ginner, got it in one; if you weren't there, fermez la bouche.

Yes, confused by 'third division' and, in my defence, after pub, LOL. I tend to ignore WUM's, but some of our fans wind me up, and I have a bad habit of responding on here to things I've read elsewhere.
Without getting carried away there were some positive signs in yesterday's game, but as usual some were watching a different game, but then, you could write their assessments of individual players before the game!
