Yet another game against a side struggling for survival, I expect nothing less than a convincing win today . COYJB .
KEEP THE HOME FIRES BURNING , BARNSLEY OUR VISITORS TODAY
- Thread starter The Blobster
- Start date
We should win this PROVIDING the players haven't gone on their hols. If we do we'd be setting some kind of record for consecutive wins I think.

Dare I tempt fate and state it but ... if we win all of our remaining matches and those in the play-off zone play at 50% or less in terms of points (reasonable assumption), we make the play-offs. We make the playoffs, we'll make the final. We make the final, we get promoted.
It's literally all to play for. When we do what we can do with purpose and finish we are one of the top teams in the division. But when we suck, do we ever suck. Martin's job between now and the end is to keep them playing at their best level .... and the rest should take care of itself. We seem to have found a fit and finish in terms of players in the right roles, the right roles in the right system, the system producing control and an attacking threat with a real sharp tip at the end of the spear. It's all to play for. One game at a time, one half at a time, one 15 minute period at a time. Just do what we do with no slop and laziness and it can happen.

Early goal and we'll romp this one .
Great to see Naughts has signed a new contract

Scrappy start , no movement , no penetration
Comms saying there's plenty of sloppy defending. Some of them had better get their minds back from the beach! Small consolation is that Cardiff are already 2 down at Hull.

Barnsley look more likely to score than we do !

Barnsley have little possession but all the chances
Ian Walsh saying we're not good enough, not progressive enough and the game seems like a 5 a side. He deplores our lack of intent and the inability to change things when it's needed. He's not impressed!!

Could this game be any more boring

I'd like to see a count of how often Hannes Wolfe is dispossessed trying to get by his man. Pretty often I'm afraid.

Piroe is anonymous, as is Christie, and Paterson is mr reverse pass again and again
Comms reckon "we're riding our luck". Martin had better give this bunch a right rocket (comms just saying a kick up the backside!) because they seem to be phoning it in right now. This annoys me so much. 
They are professional footballers who are very well paid just to play football and seemingly can't be bothered. They are fucking lucky they don't have to face me in the dressing room at half time I can tell you!!

I'm looking for a more exciting second half. So I'm headed to the bus stop to read the timetable. Yawn.
