Barnsley weren't great, had taken off their goalscorer Watters and also withdrew Cotter their right wingback with the massive throw. If we'd have continued with our tails up and gone for the win I think we would have got it.

Kind of a damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation. Had we been caught on the break while pushing for the win and lost Brady would have been absolutely lambasted for throwing away a potential hard earned point.

True, I’d just have preferred to see us keep going against a deflated and demoralised Tyke team! Risk and reward, and since the advent of 3 points for a win the reward is greater than the risk!

Another point….How little noise did their fans make?!

They were a bit quiet weren't they, even after they scored their first two?

A view from their lads, credit to "Barnsley on Tour".
£6.50 a pint though? No comment about Tescos prices..

 The catering is ridiculously expensive at Barnsley. £6.50 for a pint of barely drinkable slop and £5.50 for a Pukka pie. They're having a laugh. Funny thing about Callum Morton is that he only seems to play well for us. My wife's family are all Lincoln supporters and they didn't rate him at all while he was there. Likewise Salford if he's their fifth choice striker.

Salford have serious delusions of grandeur, and will soon come crashing down to their rightful non league place, when the class of 92 lose interest (and a lot of dollars), and pull the plug. We all saw a similar scenario take place just up the A45.

How does that compare to the fare at Sixfields?

£2.50 for a bottle of water at Sixfields!

We really should have free water refill stations.

In fairness, he’s said that he has pretty much been played out of position since he left. A ginger peg shoved in a brunette hole if you will? What’s more likely, some mysterious motivation washes over him when he turns off at 15A, or the other managers, all of which have been given the bullet are not quite at Brady’s level. It seems to me all that was required was to hand him the shirt and tell him he’s more than good enough.

Apparently there is a rule, the amount owners spend equates to league position. If that’s true, then isn’t it reasonable that fans should also be expected to pay prices relative to where they expect them to be in the ladder?

You’ve just asked us to get relegated you tít.
