All Barnsley now. We simply don't dictate games

Typical, we get worse after scoring, they get better.

They lost 19 players?? Bloody hell.

I know, I thought I had heard that wrong. It will take Bruce some time to think up an excuse if we don't beat these.

It's all a bit predictable this.

We score, they immediately start to run the game whilst we drop back more and more.

Jittery, but for the first time in years, finally following the successful MON formula. 442, right footed left winger, 2 upfront incl 1 target man, play on the counter.

Now we are sitting back. This is unwise.

Look forward to seeing how that works at home, mind

And our attacking presence gets less and less.

We've settled into our usual pattern of letting the opposition dictate the game with our 19% of the the play.

No pressing! Whelan is so slow! Swap him for Onomah.

Sitting too deep and can't keep hold of the ball when we get it.
