This is interesting. Quite a gamble by a team who are rated as second favourites to win the division next season.

They were probably impressed how he got a bang average team into the play offs It is a gamble though to hope he can go a step further with better players.

Indeed. I can't say that I was impressed by Barnsley when I saw them. Little footballing quality to them at all.

I’d imagine being a Yorkshire club, they’d probably have a “Would you take Neil Warnock” thread.

We went up with that tactic , it does work in short bursts , it is also includes a lot of commitment ,team togetherness , desire , physical strength and fitness

I don't disagree, but the thing about their play that made the biggest impression on me was the high press and very high energy levels. They maintained that by Valerian using all his subs early in the second half of games. He ran his midfield and forwards into the ground, and when they were dead on their feet he changed them (five subs helped him). We didn't - not under Harris and even less under Mick.
