Another away game, another on sale day.  Tomorrow at 10am, 3200 initial allocation. Depending on the next couple of weeks this could be a huge game.

To be fair, Barnsley are nothing like they were last season. They're a bit direct on throws and set pieces, but they're miles more open than nowadays.

The Home game against them was really end to end and a good pace about it too. 

 

The defensive solidity they had last season has escaped them. As I mentioned in a previous post, whilst they have scored in their last 16 games, they've also only managed 1 clean sheet in the same period

I think they’re a bit tighter since January after they signed Josh Earl and this Pines kid, who’s pretty tall I believe, have come in but I’m sure we’ll get chances and it’s just whether we can take them? Hopefully we will.

Lets hope Evatt showed the players the Arsenal first half last night, thats how to start a game!

Great idea. "Just play like Arsenal, lads. It's not rocket science 🤷‍♂️"

Im usually a bit of a pessimist about t'Wanderers results , after being kicked in the bollocks so many times over the last 40 odd years , but I feel really good about tonight.

It maybe that Ive already started on the Knights cider but I reckon 0-2 that could have been 6 .

That of course means we get a complete tatterin, sorry .

It’d work except you’d also need to convince Barnsley they need to play like t’blades!

Hope Toal gives cosgrove a battering

Show them the Blackpool game then!

Barnsley seem to be wanking themselves silly over Josh Earl. Have they signed a different Josh Earl than the shit one that used to play for us ?

Discipline, quality and effort.

Time to show we’re championship material.

Is Ashworth injured ?

Happy with that 

Always feel we're better with Dempsey in the team 

Tough game, but the best footballing team in the divison will show it tonight. 0-2 Dempsey and Collins.

Dont think so , but 4th in the pecking order is very harsh.

Well I don’t think so. For me Ashworth is easily our fourth choice on the left with Nat, Randell and even Iredale before him.

Matter of opinion .

Just seen Barnsley’s team Kane starts so Sheehan will be kicked all over the place and Cosgrove on the bench. 

I do like the look of Ogbeta down the left hand side. Rough around the edges but Skillfull fast and tries the unexpected.

Obviously he'll score an own goal and get sent off now 

1-1

Williams doesn't hold a candle to Iredale and Ashworth defensively. 

He's also scored a couple of goals recently and put in some decent crosses.

Id play ashworth and maghoma, in place of dempsey and ogbeta but its marginal so lets go

Take a point

I’d agree on Iredale defensively but sorry not seen anything from Ashworth to suggest he’s better than Randell or Nat and certainly not going forward. As was said earlier it’s a matter of opinion and I seem to agree with IE. 🙂

Ashworth has a goal and three assists I think in his last 5 games. He's played well since Luton in the cup at home.

Williams is quick but for me he bottles it in 50/50 balls and defensively he’s poor but as previously just an opinion.
