I miss him every second

 

Apart from that Leeds game. And Leicester away. And Derby at home.

That's when it got ****.

 

Show's how good a player Drinkwater is that.

Anyway, what about Leeds New Year's Day? My favourite ever Reds performance.

 

Me too.

Me too.

 

Second half against Derby was crap. As was the second half against Peterbro and the whole of the Blackpool game.

 

You have a joyless soul. Peterborough was my favourite ever Barnsley game.

Tell me the last time we scored a goal as good as that Davies one.

 

Did you start watching Barnsley when Nigel Spackman was in charge?

 

I hope we are as baba as we were against Posh, Leeds, Leicester and Derby during that run, when we take on Boro, Wednesday, Ipswich and Doncaster in our upcoming run.

 

That Peterborough game had everything. Goals, great goals, individual performances, optimism, drama. The lot.

Perfect.

 

For anyone wondering why footballers lack 'loyalty' - just read this thread.

If we'd have allowed him to join Crystal Palace (who eventually went up that season), he might be a Premier League player right now. He might have shown what those managers have seen in him and made a fortune. Even if he didn't, he'd have still had a 3 year contract with good wages.

Instead, he's back in League 2 playing for Rochdale. I hope he keeps playing well for them and gets his chance again.

 

We? It was Keef who said no.

 

You get the point though. Footballers jump at the opportunity if it comes up because their career might do a nosedive if they don't.

 

And rightly so.

 

Pboro away was a classic game of footy.

 

It was a fantastic game. I'll give you that one Keef.

 

you poor soul

 

Yes, I know! I have been warned! But I grew up on Athersley, so that should stand me in good stead.

 

You'll be able to read it on your phone, mate. And commiserations re the Bradford trip.

 

Thanks, Whitey.

I'm looking forward to reading the blog, but not to the drive.
