Barnsley (h) - the Cauldron Of Hate part 2?

[Exiled in Toronto]

No excuses for Rothwell today. Dack, Holtby with Bell on the overlap against the bottom team, he should rip them apart and create/score goals

I'll hazard a guess that his English is better than your Spanish though.

I'd have put Graham up front but with Rothwell, Holtby and Dack behind Gally should get good service and when combined with the opposition quality if he can't score against them he really should give up. 

Our full backs look weak, very weak and that could cause us some problems. A defensive injury would also cause us a lot of peoblems. Travis has a lot to do as the only defence minded midfielder. That said we're at home verses the divisions weakest team so a fair bit of attacking flair is no bad thing. 

Still think a home banker. Up the Rovers.

He usually gets a bit of bad press. Nice to see he still has fans. ??

Unable to put any defenders on the bench, but Mowbray reckons we recruited just fine defensively ? oh well.

Good to see Rothwell starting in a match he should be able to influence. 

And really neither player should be anywhere near full back. Fortunately these are the only outfield players that look horrendously weak. The rest of the team looks decent.

Absolutely.

I  was just trying to be helpful to the lad, I like his passion on here and FB.

It doesen't matter how black skyes cpuld be I'm always going to wish and think about a victory for MY TEAM. 

Your team? You need to walk a mile in our shoes before calling any of us “shet supporters”. We’ve invested a hell of a lot more in this club that you - emotionally and financially.

[davulsukur]

Only minutes away from what feels like a huge, huge game in our season.

I can't shake the dread of the new manager bounce for them.

2-2.

[Husky]

It appears that even Tony isn't afraid of Barnsley's teenage reserve sweeper.

That's how bad they are.

Seems an odd atmosphere around, struggling to explain it but feels somehow muted 

[philipl]

Armstrong up top and Gallagher right wing. He's just sent Rothwell to the chippy and Walton is starting in McDonald's

He’ll never stop with this Gallagher wide nonsense will he. Does my bloody head in.

[Tom]

This lot look awful if we don’t batter them there are huge issues here 

[philipl]

blatant penalty not given for foul on Holtby

[Wegerleswiggle]

Stuck at a kids party ATM.. how are we playing?

So you're saying it's following the pattern of every other home game! 

[philipl]

Barnsley having the better of possession and this is dire.

Rovers twitter with just 1 update since the game started.

Well good to see we’ve come racing out of the traps after another international break. Jesus Christ.

[bluebruce]

Come on Armstrong, you're not Benni McCarthy, stop being offside. 3 times already.

[Stuart]

Gallagher our wide, Armstrong centre forward.

Arma picked for his pace already caught offside twice receiving the ball to feet. Meanwhile Barnsley aren’t afraid, playing a high line despite his supposed speed. Either swap Arma and Gally over or bring on Graham.

Imagine Garner out wide crossing to Sellars!
