BARNSLEY SACK HEAD COACH NEIL COLLINS!/ Instant Reaction! 

Pompey fan here. Cruel firing the coach with one game to go. Hard to get over that. But if you win the playoff final it will be genius. Good luck on Saturday. Thanks for the great vlogs this year. Your enthusiasm and unbiased opinions got you my subscription. Thanks👍🏻

This is why football is the best game ever. We’ve been to Wembley 5 times and The Millennium Stadium as well. We’ve beaten Liverpool and Chelsea and seen promotion from bottom place at Xmas. We endured Covid because our team was doing so well and all in recent times, and now we’ve sacked our manager just before bursting into the play offs. This video is superb by the way. Don’t worry, be happy.

I agree with your view. Timing is very bizarre. Barnsley are still in a good position to reach the play offs. Last game at home v Northampton. The players need to do their job and the fans need to get behind the players and be the 12th man!

Well put young man. If they were going to sack the poor chap it should have been done earlier. The team now must show character and play with pride on Saturday - show the fans what you are made of!!!

Mads Anderson to Luton here's his replacement Sheppard from Pontefract colliery work some magic son

It doesnt surprise me that he has gone, but the timing seems crazy.-that said, sometimes interim managers can give that short-term boost that's needed in a time like this. From an imp.

Just want to say your videos are class mate. I can see us beating Northampton but flopping in the playoffs but stay hopeful! COYR!

I went to school with Neill and played with him at Troon thistle as a kid. I’m sad to see this . I don’t understand why 5th was that bad , I thought he done well for his first job here .

That hes left whilst we were in playoff places, looks better for his cv. As opposed to being sacked on.last game when we'll probably drop out of playoff position I've thought for weeks since January, that I think there's problems behind scenes , and I don't think it's just losing the dressing room by the coach etc..but the twits we've in charge of the club. Its all guessing, but there's history as we all know with them and players ... summats not right at mill ..

Lisa's husband, Andy here. I agree with everything you say. The timing is bizarre, surely the time for proper assessment would be when the season is over. Anyway COYR.

Lack of enthusiasm regarding season ticket sales, board spooked

An absolutely daft decision. Yes, they've not being doing very well lately - but all teams go through bad spells. What clubs in general can't grasp is that things take time to build - Revie, Shankly, Ferguson to name but three are proof of that. He should have been allowed to finish the season. For what it's worth I attended the open training session with my grandson Leo - Collins was lovely with him. I liked the bloke.

Panic button turned on watch that Duff comes back soon

Im confused more than anything. Timing is the bizarre thing but it boils down to 1 of several reason. 1 would be they have someone lined up with a remit to achieve promotion by end of next season and a bonus if they do it via playoffs this season. It could be that he lost the dressing room and something kicked off that made his position untenable or alternatively it simply could be that Oakwell would become very hostile on Saturday if we dont win/ scrape through with a draw and devaney is given a free hit because fans wont turn on him if we fail at the last hurdle. Either way as fans we owe it to ourselves to make Oakwell rock Saturday and finish the season on a high. If everyone inside is singing at 2:59pm im sure the lads will feel a weight lifted off their shoulders and play like they did 1st half vs Derby, vs Pompey for 80 mins or the last 35 mins Vs Blackpool. If we dont go through chalk this season off and pressure the board constantly to put some intelligence behind their next appointment and next seasons signing.

Timing of it to me was wrong 1 game to go it's crazy now we've got davo as interim but not the experience for play offs just hope they get someone with league experience

Your the goat like Barnsley ❤❤❤❤

Can you expect the board to pick a good manager, these are the ones who picked Collins.

Lets see if Disco can lift them to win their last game & hopefully back to wembley. COYR !!!💪

Although to outsiders, it looks like strange timing but I don't think many Barnsley fans were surprised.

I think it had to happen if you look at are form we need to win against Northampton to secure playoffs

Timing not good, should have gone a few ago. MD to see us to end of season and I like to try and get Michael Skubala from Lincoln

I agree it's not all Collins fault. No one reaĺlly expects us to win on Saturday. It stops a riot after the game. If we do go into the playoffs by some miracle, we are not going to Wembly. I don't think any manager can change this. The board can focus on next season, the new manager & squad. Feel like there is something they are not telling us.

Keep it up fella... bitter sweet sad day today

I am going to apply for the position. I promise I will take us to the next level. I come cheap, and I will only ask 1M per year. C'mon you Reds!

In my opinion after the Bolton game I think he said some nasties to the players in the dressing room and they stopped playing for him.

What??!!! Must have lost the players support. Need a big reaction for the remaining game (s). Never a dull moment.

wow im shocked great vid

Yay

Barnsley looked decent at fratton park but the timing is very odd you should win Saturday then free hit in the playoffs. Unless you have someone lined up

Great video bro right decision just made to late

I think he's lost the dressing room pal and the board are probably planning for the future early?

Looks like the owners have just hit the panic button, but how is this going to help reduce the panic that has set in ?? Sheer Madness!! I blame the players for not turning up week after week, not Collins, even though long term I don't think he was the right fit for us.

Think Collins has used up all his motivational talks earlier in season, Number of times we turned defeat into wins was good, Sad that it didn't work out but from the outside, Some players downed tools?

Collins can be blamed for some of the poor results, but the players need to step up. reasons for sacking, 8 points form last 10 games and low season tickets sales for next season.

Lose the faith from the fans and you're in big trouble and maybe lost the faith from the players too

Should have waited until after the play offs..

Understand as fans you may be happy just feel maybe a little bit early it’s not like you haven’t got anymore games?? I mentioned the other day as a team you have dropped off?

Darren Moore will be after another pay off lol

pointless imo, might aswell play Northampton and if we lose then sack. Would've liked to see how he would have coped into he playoffs.

He should have gone ages ago, should have never brought what was in my opinion a non league level manager in which he came from a league where league 2 and non league teams could have beaten, the club need to grow some bollocks on and off the pitch and get someone who is well know (league 1,2 or even Scotland or someone who is out of a job that is a well respected manager) preferably I would go either duff or old Cambridge United manager Mark bonner

Your performance at Pompey was great, you were unlucky. Seems strange timing but like you say there is now a chance you won't make playoffs. Brave or stupid, who knows?

He should have been sacked weeks ago… Completely out of his depth, no players under him have improved His interviews, and football was just drab!!! Schopp Mk2 - glad he’s gone!

Just bizarre, from a neutral

Stupid move , I would think, at this point in time

Collins asked for it. Boring football. Players out of position and a few players don't want to be there
