Honestly, credit to whoever is going to pay hundreds to watch that shit next year. I cant even make it to the end of games when its free to watch on tv or listen on the radio, never mind paying. Dull, boring football, playing around the back, then giving it away, playing it round the back, then giving it away. It must be a long time since we had a structure from top to bottom as clueless as we do right now at this football club. I have never known a manager seemingly play for a point as much as we have attempted this season. He has pretty much thrown games away at Norwich and Bournemouth. His team selections, his tactics, his substitutions, his game plan are absolutely garbage. The players we continue to bring in by this joke of a director of football are going to ensure the football will only get worse. Then we have a chairman who seems that clueless that he gives his backing to it all. Does anyone honestly trust them to overhaul the squad this summer? Like, really? More shit, cheap signings, slower more monotonous football and another relegation battle (thats if we survive this season). No thank you. We didn't pass it around at the back tonight. For 80 mins we launched it and only tried to play after Eiting came on.

I thought we didnt play that badly. Barnsley have what we had under Wagner, they are sharp, so much sharper than us. I dont get what Duane Holmes adds. Eiting comes back and shows what we need, class. What did Barnsley have that we had under Wagner? The only thing I can think of is belief. Otherwise they were totally different styles. That, effort and momentum.

Describe that again town. I don't understand what you are on about The bloke that was chanting around the ground throughout the game... he was carrying on with who 2 be a terrier and one or two others after the final whistle, all supportive.... the screen when red but the ground noise was audible and Phat got on the ground microphone and told him "we've lost, why don't you just go home"... Why don't you just fuck off phat! Phat as in Hodgkinson ? If so thats a bit out of order

So after Forest the players are all crowing on Twitter with the club reposting. The post match show can not be put out quickly enough. Bet it’s quiet tonight. Still no post match show for Norwich. Keep your heads down lads.
Not sure the management understand what losing like this means to the fans. Do they even care?

I’m so glad we spent so long going after Aaron’s rather than focus on Rowe!!! Aarons has to be given a chance and a full pre-season. But, looking at him on the field he looks scared to death.

If we sign Sanogo, does anyone think he could possibly score 3 goals in a full season ?
We need to seriously overhaul this squad.

Why don't you just fuck off phat! Shut up you absolute bellend It was someone from the Barnsley media team who said that. It was a thick Barnsley accent. I very much doubt Phil says Tha instead of you

Are you 2 years old? Get a grip you wet wipe. Many many worse than him. However, he isn't Championship standard. I'd been told he was shite by a lad who supports Notts County. Couldn't believe he was our number 1 Said it before we need experience there for next season. John Ruddy warming the bench at Wolves. Someone of that ilk would be great. Especially for Schofield.

Poor result and performance but results gone our way largely Barnsley play Rotherham next who will leggy and without crooks We now face three sides on the beach and have a big points cushion - I’d have taken that at the start of the season If there is a beach, whoever wants to get on it will have to lever some of our lazy bastards out of the way to get on it. Until is impossible to be overtaken you wouldn't bet on these fuckers to give it their best shot to be.. Last game result, I dont think hogg and o brien can run enough for everyone else..the rest will be creamed up and speedos on.. Tell me who looked like they didn't TRY tonight....we lacked the quality and plan to counter Barnsley very effective tactics...I'll give you that but who didn't put the effort in? I saw mostly a 1980s style local Derby which lacked quality but was full on for every minute.

We competed for the most part. Good to see Eiting back, he looked a level about the rest. We should stay up, but I don’t have a clue what we are building towards next season. Just seems a complete lack of vision.

Apparently corberan is a arrogant wanka, he didn't even say hello to Danny grant for 6 weeks. Danny ward has told a friend of mine the players take no notice of him anymore because they don't know what he's saying

Energy, fitness and an in-your-face press. Surely you didn't miss that? Their pressing was absolutely nothing like what we did under Wagner. It was different yes....we pressed strategically and often played a slow measured game under wagner. Barnsley is much more old style 'get in their faces' but I think the similarities are there....smaller club, unexpected, momentum and confidence.

Honestly sometimes I feel like I watch different games to some on here. All the comments about effort and application....I thought we went toe to toe especially in the first half. Simply they are better than us at their gameplan and we aren't quite good enough to work a way around their limited plan. Barnsley remind me of us when we got promoted in some ways....completely in your face all game. Hats off to Barnsley....they could be a real dark horse in the play offs. I can understand the concern that a limited squad with a good plan and an excellent coach got the better of us but I couldn't fault the effort. Yes we need to improve for next season...obviously. But I can't castigate the players on this occasion...they left everything out there in my view. Eiting showed an interesting cameo of what we have missed whilst he's been injured this

If thats the case then Danny Ward needs to keep his gob shut and not slag the manager off behind his back. Whether we like/dislike the manager you can tell your mate that Danny Ward needs to concentrate on getting fit that gobbing off.

TBF I thought Barnsley were a lot better than they were at Oakwell. ....they remind me a fair bit of Wagner's promotion team. Great to see Eiting & Koroma back if they'd been about in 2021 there is NO WAY we'd be in the position we are now. Our full strength team (including Koroma, Eiting, Pipa & Toffolo) wins games like that despite how sh8*te we're supposed to be reading this board sometimes. Why does our full strength teams win games like that? And why do people keep going on about our strongest 11 as if they are world beaters and nobody else in the division suffers from injuries. Pay barnsley a bit more respect than that, they are a much better side than us this year.

CC probably hasn't even seen him never mind talked to him

As shite as Town were, Barnsley knew that 3pts tonight and Reading dropping points, would all but seal their place in the play-offs.
Probably a bit like our trip to Wolves late in the promotion season, 1-0 sealed that place mathematically and we were a different team for the last regular games.
They wanted it far more, but maybe the incentive was bigger?
Our 20th loss, their 22nd victory, big difference.
Such a contrast to Sat. If we'd have repeated the first 15 mins v Forest against Barnsley, they'd have been home & hosed by h/t.
We move on, we'll be OK, but some big problems to solve on the pitch for next season.

That, effort and momentum. OK fair enough, thought you were on about the football style. Their style is awful, but they work with what they have, and are worth more than the sum of their parts. Great management.

If we sign Sanogo, does anyone think he could possibly score 3 goals in a full season ? We need to seriously overhaul this squad. Holds the ball up well, but only occasionally. Certainly doesn't look to have a goal in him. BUT he's FREE (wonder why?).

Danny ward has told a friend of mine the players take no notice of him anymore because they don't know what he's saying I dont think Ward takes any notice of anyone judging by his clueless performances. If true, he would do better to keep his gob shut, and try and repay some of his wages by doing what he should be doing, you know, scoring goals?

I saw mostly a 1980s style local Derby which lacked quality but was full on for every minute. The effort was mostly there, although not when "defending" their goal. Not much effort shown in that instance. The lack of quality, and the inability to do the basics was alarming though. And our tactics were bizzare. Ineffective long ball football for the most part, launching the ball at Sanogo and relying on Holmes' pathetic attempts at long throws. And then when we needed to go a bit more direct, we decide to play a possession game? Only Eiting showed any quality today. Barnsley are a good, well-drilled side, who are difficult to play against. But that cannot be used to excuse our alarming difficiences - both defensively and offensively. We were so poor all over the park.

Effort is good but to realize that you are loosing and not have the branes to change it up and play it around aimlessly at the back just show how limited and leaderless we are. That is in the team as well as from the bench.
