    Reading 442 pre season preview and their Swindon fan says that, apart from Harrogate, they have beaten all other 91 league teams in a competitive fixture and are the only team to have done so.

    Got me thinking- how many have we not beaten? Clearly never played newcomers- Salford, Stevenage, Forest Green, Morecambe but there must be others we have never beaten (Arsenal spring to mind?)

    Any more to add to the list?

    My first thoughts were Newcastle or Everton, and I was wrong about those (I'm checking Soccerbase's head-to-head.)

    Crawley is one, I think. Played two, lost two.

    Edit: yep.

    to add to the OP - apart from the recent newcomers F Green, Salford, Stevenage are there any tams out of the 91 that Barnsley have never played?

    Thanks for responses. After an evenings research it appears to me the answer is :

    Never played- Harrogate, Forest Green, Salford, Stevenage

    Played but never beaten- Crawley

    I had forgotten the Morecambe cup games so ditch them. So 4 never played and a sole opponent we have played never beaten. Happy to be corrected
