Surely we can’t play as bad as that second half

    Abysmal.
    And same old story - rushed final pass going astray.

    I don't think we have played bad. Would you rather we just hoofed it upheld and hoped for the best.

    Yer watching a different game to me.
    It’s shockingly poor.

    Genuinely, Nudge - I find that bizarre. Apart from our inability to hit the target, we've played really well today. The pace with which we sweep forward is a joy to watch. I know it's all about opinions, but I'm genuinely baffled that anyone could deem that first half 'bad' or, even worse, 'abysmal'.

    I agree with you today Nudge, we never really looked we were going to score a goal in that half.

    For once, you're right. I think most of us are watching a different game to you.

    Maybe you should get down oakwell and give stendel a few tips. Not sure how it's shocking only one team in it untill the sending off even then we were still going forward. Pinnock saved us at end granted but not sure how it was shocking as you say.

    We aren't playing in this league for the benefit of other teams to roll over and have us win.

    We've been the better team first half, which for years whenever we've played away has been hard to regularly say.

    I was going to say ‘oh **** off man’ but I won’t. Wouldn’t add to the ‘debate’

    If we all put Nudger on ignore do you think he’d argue against himself?

    Our overall play has been good, possession wise it's like a home game. Poor final ball though, as has been the case recently.

    I get that but they were poor efforts, I mean when the opposition keeper is making top saves or desperate blocks ect. Some good build up play but nothing to show for it.

    Ironically we have scored after a bit of good fortune and a excellent finish of course.

    I think the commentator said something in the second-half like there can’t be a man in the entire country who would be able to argue that this isn’t an excellent performance from Barnsley

    Obviously doesn’t know you, Nudge!
