Barnsley (A) League One, Tuesday Oct 20th 7.45pm

[reedswood sadler]

Fear the worst hope for the best we always knew the testing time would be when hit by injuries or suspensions tonight will answer some of those questions.
I thought we struggled a bit with just o'conner missing tonight with etheridge and manson out plus possibly taylor and o'connor again I will be happy to take anything out of this game.

[chunkster]

this is very difficult to predict. because of our inconsistency against poor sides? i was thinking the other day. if there was a league for shots on goal. attacks and posts hit. then we would be the top of the prem :lol: . but it doesn't win games and it certainly doesn't get you promoted. there is no award or reward for being the best attacking football playing side in the lower leagues if you don't get results. if they are a footballing side then i think we will win; but we just can not play against a hoofing side, we can play football with the best of em. i would back us to win against any footballing side in our division. and some in the championship, but we just don't perform well against poorer footballing sides :(

[gerryhatrick]

Back tonight - by popular demand, Jordan Cook and seventeen others.

no,hes on the bench,evans and milan start

[Ancient Moaner]

Not a nice place to go, reckon we may benefit from it being a night game and will be determined to put last season's performance at Oakwell to bed.

Can`t agree with that. :wink:

Think a 1-1 draw for this one.

Yeah, whoulda thunk it that Wentworth House, Garden Centre & Village was actually in BARNSLEY eh!
Notice that on Jolly Jonny's prediction thread VERY few individuals were brave enough to predict a Walsall win! :oops:

[chunkster]

who the bloody hell is our reserve keeper jezeph??? :shock: never heard of him. and bakayoko is on the bench :shock:

[Welsh_Saddler]

Inside the first minute we have an early goal - Sheffield United 1 Fleetwood 0

Jezeph is the youth team keeper, I think.

Chesterfield 1 Southend United 0

[leics_saddler]

I must say I'm worried.
Their team looks like Scumbag Row.
Exactly the sort of team that would turn us over in previous years.

[Mrdollabill]

we must score early!

All right, all right....I was having a kip - it's my age, you know!!!

[Welsh_Saddler]

That's 2 attempts on goal we've had in the first 20 minutes, both from George Evans. And MacGillivray has saved from a header following a corner.

So far, so good.........

Colchester 1 Port Vale 0

Sloppies 1 Doncaster Rovers 1 now

[Welsh_Saddler]

Barnsley defender Wabara booked for a foul on Tom Bradshaw :D

Swindon Town 0 Oldham Athletic 1 (33 min) That puts Swindon in the bottom four, and lifts Blackpool out of that zone :shock:

Blackpool 0 Millwall 1 ..... spoke too soon!!

Chesterfield 2 Southend United 0 now (Ebanks-Blake (spit) )

We have our first corner.......and 46 seconds later Barnsley have a corner :?

New lad Evans goes into the ref's book.......... :(

Port Vale have equalised at Colchester - 1-1 now

[Welsh_Saddler]

0-0 at half-time.

The three teams that could overtake us tonight are all drawing, so no change at the top.

Very late edit - Bradford City 1 Bury 0 on the stroke of half-time.

[Welsh_Saddler]

Second half under way - Dean Smith staying with the starting XI, but Barnsley make a midfielder substitution.

We are somewhat under pressure - 2 Barnsley corners in the first five minutes of the second half........ :(

Another Barnsley yellow card - Scowen, for a foul on Romaine Sawyers.

It must be catching..... a third Barnsley yellow card (Pearson), a minute later......

[Welsh_Saddler]

Gillingham 0 Scunthorpe 1 :lol: :lol: :lol: (shouldn't laugh - Fleetwood did that and got hammered 5-1)

Bradford City 2 Bury 0 now (o.g.)

As it stands, one Walsall goal now would put us back on top of the table.

Barnsley have their 5th corner.......

[Welsh_Saddler]

Not our League - but Jamie Cureton has scored for Dag & Red at York.....I wasn't aware they allowed Zimmer frames on the pitch... :shock:

Gillingham 1 Scunthorpe 1 now

Peterborough have got one back - it's now Posh 1 Wigan Athletic 2

Barnsley make their 2nd substitution - a striker for a striker.

[SaddlerCrewe]

Gillingham 0 Scunthorpe 1 :lol: :lol: :lol: (shouldn't laugh - Fleetwood did that and got hammered 5-1)

As it stands, one Walsall goal now would put us back on top of the table.

Welsh, did you have to type that!

[leics_saddler]

YYYYYEEEESSSS !!!!!!

[saddla]

Get in there!!!! EVANS

[SaddlerCrewe]

1-0 to us.
Evans on his debut!
