That wor bloody mint. I was more bothered about the clean sheet than a 5th goal by the end. How the chuff did this side not beat Wimbledon?
Reporter on Sky who was at the game said " Barnsley are playing at 100 miles an hour. Totally outclassing Rochdale etc etc." Great to hear comments like that especially after the disappointment of last season.
I’ve not seen either game so difficult to comment but I guess it’s hard to play at pace if the opposition park the bus which I assume Wimbledon did? Will have to find a tactic at home to overcome that. Great victory tonight You reds!
Wimbledon shut up shop and were onto us every single time a red shirt had the ball - to their credit it worked and they came away with a point. Rochdale played more openly and we battered them, although unlike in the recent home game there were quality balls into the box which led to goals.
I was astonished how quick our movement was tonight, right up to the very end. The pace just didn't slacken all the way through. Why have we never had this level of fitness before?
