    We didn't deserve anything from that game. Men against boys and our tactics were appalling ...

    If I was a Blunt(or even a Barnsley fan) I'd definitely want Pardew IN :)

    We didn't deserve to lose that game I agree with bl we had a fair few chances to score more so did they like he says two poor teams. Shouldn't have conceded the first goal defence was ball watching.

    Agree completely.

    Don't understand why, and this has happened pretty much every game we've gone behind at Oakwell, we go from playing with pace and trying to get balls in early to chipping hopeless balls onto opposition defenders' heads. Two huge, slow centre backs in Basham and Collins and we play to their strengths by doing exactly that. Disappointing performance but a welcome point, and I'd take that every single time over a good performance (like Tuesday) and 0 points.

    Yes we did deserve something and for me were tHe better of two poor teams. But we didn't win, we gave away another goal at home and we don't look settled or have a shape that suits. I lost count of the amount of 50yd diagonal or 30yard straight passes from the back to an opposition player and how slow we are at moving the ball up field.

    We deserved a point today for me too. It was a poor performance but we got what we deserved for a change. We've lost so many games this season we should have won, and our luck this afternoon was as bad as it's been. That referee was dire. Good point, got to pick up more though. We've not drawn anywhere near enough games.

    We absolutely did not deserve a damn thing from that game. A shameful performance from team and management.

    What world are you living on! It was a really even game and we definitely didn't deserve to lose.

    It was absolute tripe and if the Blunts had have been more clinical Johnson wouldn't be hanging on like his is now.

    I fully expect change this evening for the sake of the club

    Neither club was good but neither club equally could say that they deserved "if the Blunts had have been more clinical"... Maybe if Barnsley had been more clinical Adkins wouldn't be hanging on?

    Anyway it seems clear to me that if we can be bottom of the league and not sack him results aren't what are going to result in Johnson leaving the club. Simple as that. Its going to be as much of a rough second half of the season as the first half was I fear.

    It wasn't bad.

    The defence looks all over the shop, but we created enough chances to have buried the Rape Apologists.

    Hit the post, hit the bar, missed a penalty, Watkins missed from a position where you'd have expected a kitten to score.

    There's a lot of work to do, yeah, but four points from three games is an improvement when you've previously lost the last 4,000,000,000 league games and been knocked out of the FA Cup by The Red Lion. Hammill showed a great deal of passion. Perhaps too much. There were some brief outbreaks of what looked like football from the midfield. I'm encouraged that we kept going at the Prince Of Wales Road sharpened elbow scrubbers until the end: for a team in our position, missing that penalty could have made us fold but it didn't.

    I don't like Johnson, and I don't rate him. Clearly, however, there is no possibility of him being sacked and so we have no choice but to support him.

    Manor Top were mediocre. It was a game between two terrible sides, but at least they didn't beat us. On another day, we'd have sent them back to their City Road hovels with nothing at all. They're going absolutely nowhere positive under Jimmy Tarbuck. Hopefully - please, Footballing Gods - they'll get dragged down towards the relegation zone and we'll save ourselves at their expense. It's not impossible. (And I'd ******* love it.)
