    I must’ve watched the game through a bathroom window then as we totally dominated them for the first 45 minutes and never looked threatened in the second half either, I’d it wasn’t for the penalty they could’ve still be playing now and not scored

    Sun reporter won’t have bothered to learn which Barnsley player was which so will just have randomly given out 5s and 6s. Par for the course.

    Agree with that, closely followed by Mowatt, thought they all played well. Shame about that last minute balls- up by Lindsay.

    It's no more than a comic and has been for as many years as I can remember.

    Really! I’m gutted. Always had huge respect for that Newspaper. I’m not one to say, ‘ what do you get if you mix a Sun reader with a pig?’ Thick Bacon.
    Or what to do call a Sun reader with half a brain? Gifted.
    No, you won’t hear me coming out with that kind of stuff.

    It's hardly surprising, they struggle not to call us Burnley most of the time. Personally I wouldn't waste my time reading what they have to say, especially about football.

    And registered higher scores for individual Barnsley players than those for Burnley.
    Quite a number of our lads scored 7's whilst several Burnley players were shown as 6's.
    As you say they rated McGeehan as MOM. He was scored as an 8.
