Hadn't realised it was so good till I read this in the Yorkshire Post: "Given the eye-catching research that he has undertaken on his new club, it may not have escaped Schmidt’s attention that Barnsley will be heading to a favourable venue in St Andrew’s. It was, in fact, the scene of their last away victory at this level – a 2-0 success achieved thanks to an Oli McBurnie double in February 2018 in what constituted a rare moment to savour for Jose Morais during his ill-fated tenure. All told, the Reds are unbeaten on their last five visits to the Blues’ home and have won on three of their last four trips."
It has to be the most fruitful away ground in my time watching us. We drew there on our way to the Premiership and there was the play-off win too. Even the Rochdale Numpty managed a staggering result there!
I think the performance on that occasion was even more staggering than the result! I've never quite worked out whether we were especially good or the Brummies especially bad. Sadly, King Keith never got them to repeat it!
I've been 4 times, all our last 4 visits 12/13: 5-0 win 13/14: 1-1 draw 16/17: 3-0 win 17/18: 2-0 win More of the same tonight please.
I wonder if the Brummies are seeing us as their bogey team? Nice to think that they have a QPR or a Weds.
This thread reminds me of the ITV racing coverage when they talk about some hotpot favourite that invariably gets turned over at short odds.
I remember going when we got hammered 4 nil and got a brick thru bus window for good measure. Then few months later we battered them in playoffs..
