David Perkins on 09:46 - May 20 with 3211 views | AtThePeake | One of my first non-Dale games was that game at Gigg Lane where Phillips scored a hat-trick and Sunderland won the league/promotion? Think it finished 5-2, Phillips scored one of his goals while the Bury fans were still celebrating a goal of theirs. | |

David Perkins on 11:17 - May 20 with 3092 views | TomRAFC | If he can still put a tackle in then he is definitely worth having with us. We need an experienced head in front of the back four. I'll trust Hilly's judgement on whether he's still got it. | |
| |
David Perkins on 11:32 - May 20 with 3074 views | AtThePeake | He hasn't really played in front of the back four though. Personally I think we should stick with Bennett there. If he can find some consistency in that position he could be one of our key men next season. | |

David Perkins on 11:54 - May 20 with 3045 views | RotherhamDale | I've heard it all now. We capitulated after RNL had gone off... We were shite anyway, and so is he. Every time he gets in a good wide position, he does nothing clever with it, he just blasts it into the area and hopes for the best. | |

David Perkins on 12:23 - May 20 with 2984 views | WhiteyBFC | I was taking the piss. He wasn't great, but he wasn't as bad as most of them were. Allen was the standout player when on the pitch. But as you say, it was the inability to defend set pieces that did for you that afternoon, where TK was beaten by 5 foot dwarf Josh Scowen. | | | |
David Perkins on 12:25 - May 20 with 2979 views | WhiteyBFC | No. He was shit, mate. | | | |
David Perkins on 12:29 - May 20 with 2970 views | WhiteyBFC | You clearly haven't read any of my posts in the last two years then. We've had a handful of decent lads mixed together with a raft of endless shite. Last season we had more good than bad, but getting them all fit and working as a unit proved difficult. Changing managers doesn't help. I don't see how my criticism of former players who weren't very good for us means I'm saying BFC are full of world class players. We were full of shite ex Daleys. | | | |
David Perkins on 12:39 - May 20 with 2950 views | WhiteyBFC | Exactly that. i'm giving my fair assessment of them on what I've seen, and in all honesty I think I've only really given Wiseman lots of stick on here. I've always praised Daggers, COGba, Done. I've always said I liked TK in a back three, but that at LB he was beyond bad. I always say that Dawson was our most consistent player in his first 7 months under Keith, but became worse after the first injury and never looked the same player. And I always loved Perkins until it became clear that the one true advantage he had over others, his main asset (his legs/stamina etc) had gone. I'm friendly with Reuben, as I've said before so you should take my comments on him with a pinch of salt. But I do truly believe he's talented. Just needs to sort out his head, he could thrive if he had that Daws/Perks endeavour. Hell, Matty Done endeavour. Because he's got more skill than they have. All graft and no skill or no graft and all skill, not going to happen. Marry the two. Quids in. Laughing. But yeah, pinch of salt. As for us next season, LJ's remit is top six. The fanbase expect top six. But with what looks like another rebuild of sorts, you never know which way it will go. But I know we're top six in budgetary terms so he'll be backed and given the tools to achieve the stated aim. Up to him to deliver. I hope he does, because this division is awful and I quite like the bloke. | | | |

David Perkins on 13:28 - May 20 with 2825 views | milly | Just cos certain player/s does not perform well at Barnsley does not automatically mean he is not good.Plenty of players have been deemed rubbish at one club then excel at another.A certain Joseph (Kevin) Keegan springs to mind from years ago.Doncaster said he would never ever on this earth become a league footballer. | | | |
David Perkins on 13:37 - May 20 with 2795 views | PaulHeymanGuy | Do you post this much tripe on your own forum? | | | |
David Perkins on 13:55 - May 20 with 2734 views | tazzydjr | You won't be anywhere near that top 6 next season for the simple fact your first managerial sacking will happen at Christmas because your fans would of got fed up of the back to back losses, your fans will use their bullying tactics on the little southerner which will only add more pressure. Then bring more losses which will follow you sacking him by Christmas. Sitting near bottom of the table you'll appoint LJ's assistant which will bring some win's followed by draw's and losses. Then you'll sack him then be hunting one of next season's actual top 6 for your 3rd Managerial appointment of the campaign. It's typical barnsley logic you should know the script by now whitey | |

David Perkins on 14:48 - May 20 with 2650 views | WhiteyBFC | Unlike Ginola, tha not worth it. | | | |
David Perkins on 14:49 - May 20 with 2533 views | WhiteyBFC | I'm aware of that, and nowhere have I claimed different. | | | |
David Perkins on 14:49 - May 20 with 2531 views | WhiteyBFC | Yep. But I don't watch wrestling... | | | |
David Perkins on 15:02 - May 20 with 2509 views | WhiteyBFC | You might be somewhere near the truth there, Tazzy, except the bits about our fans using bullying tactics. The last two managerial changes came AGAINST fan opinion. I'm looking forward to supporting my club as usual next season, what will be will be. But I do have hopes for the top six, based purely on the size of our club, our gates, our budget and our fantastic young players coming through. These things are an advantage over the majority of clubs at this level, such as yourself. However, without good management and a united front at the club they mean little. It's time for our board to back their latest manager. | | | |
David Perkins on 15:05 - May 20 with 2501 views | milly | Well,its very rare you praise ex Barnsley players.You normally say they were not good enough. | | | |
David Perkins on 15:09 - May 20 with 2489 views | milly | Listen Whitey,i remember the Division 4 Barnsley.You then had a few great years but,in my opinion,L1 is your true level.You just over-achieved in your seasons in the top 2 leagues. [Post edited 20 May 2015 15:09]

David Perkins on 15:20 - May 20 with 2456 views | aleanddale | Away from Barnsley !!! Agree ATP hope bennett makes that position his own next season... | | | |
David Perkins on 15:25 - May 20 with 2453 views | WhiteyBFC | For the sixty eighth time this week - COG, Daggers, TK (at centre half), Done, Perkins (for most of his time here) and Dawson (for half of his time here) were all between okay and good for us. Some more than others. But of the lot of them, I was only disappointed to lose Daggers at the time of their respective departures. We got out at the right time regards the others. You have to appreciate I saw these sort of lads at Championship level. Which is a massive step up in quality. You'll have to trust me on that seeing as you wouldn't know.. Wiseman was horrendous. | | | |
David Perkins on 15:28 - May 20 with 2447 views | WhiteyBFC | We overachieved for 74 seasons then, aye? http://www.european-football-statistics.co.uk/attnclub/bars.htm The second tier is our true level historically. There isn't one thing you can point to that would prove otherwise. But I have no idea why you've gone down this route of debate in a thread discussing the merits of David Perkins who is currently in talks with Wigan. You know, that club who are historically a non league club? | | | |
David Perkins on 15:29 - May 20 with 2445 views | milly | Maybe thats true about the championship but,you are L1 now and most of those players would be good enough for you at this standard.You cant expect to attract decent championship/premier players to your club whilst in this league. | | | |
David Perkins on 15:33 - May 20 with 2425 views | 442Dale | Apart from a spell during the second half of 12/13. | |
