Dan Robin Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 (edited) It was a bit stressful, wasn't it? In the second half we struggled, conceding many chances (some huge ones), we had to face an irritating one-way refereeing (that had an impact on our goal chances too), but...WE WON! The team's effort and the support were great. Both deserved a joy, after so many disappointing - and sometimes undeserved - results. Hopefully this win will restore some confidence and make the team play with lese pressure. COYR!!!

WessexPest Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Holy Toledo! That was sphincter-clenching stuff at the end. I was convinced their keeper was going to score. And how that chance at the end stayed out is beyond me. Spent two years in Barnsley as a student in the 90s so after propping up the local hospitality economy the beggars owed me a favour. Another underwhelming performance against a side on a wretched run of form, but that’s for another day. For now let’s just savour the first home win since trilobites swam in the Avon.

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Not exactly sure how we held on for the win. I was nervous every time they got a corner. We could have made it easier for ourselves particularly if Bakinson showed more strength given his size and if Wells had threatened the goal more than he did the south stand Heineken sign but perhaps winning a game in this manner is just what we need. Massengo the Magnificent gets the nod for Mom for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offside Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Phew. What a great feeling to get that win. The scenes after the final whistle were memorable and I thought the crowd got behind the team superbly in those last few minutes. City were mainly poor and did the usual thing in the last part of the game where we invited pressure and failed to keep hold of the ball, but at least we can enjoy a Saturday night after a home match again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I want to watch footy on a Saturday I will probably just walk down to watch Wombwell Town such is my complete apathy towards my beloved Reds. Never felt like this in nearly nearly 35 years of following Barnsley. Hopefully Barnsley, under new owners. Maybe Bradford Park Avenue if I go back to grass roots.

WessexPest Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 As pleased as I was with our victory, the fact Barnsley fans are so unhappy with their lot really puts that performance in perspective. I can stomach being taken apart by Bournemouth and WBA but not dominated by Barnsley at home, and for periods yesterday that’s exactly what happened.
