The team just have to go for it in the 2nd leg. Surely we’ll manage to score against these this season? We’ll need at least 2!
A draw would have been a fair result, they nicked it with a bit of quality and some slack defending. A little bit of luck either way and we win or draw that.
Inexperience showed in too many. Occasion got to them. After drawing three blanks against them this season we will have to be very lucky to turn the tie around.
Heart breaking to lose that one. Nothing between the two teams, apart from a quality finish from Ayew and the crossbar. No lack of effort from the players, but we were a bit lacking in the final third. I though Morris made a big difference in the second half, though Brittain was my MOTM. This tie is not over by any stretch of the imagination, although I'd accept Swansea are now favourites. I'm still proud of these lads this season, they've done us proud.
I have no complaints about that display. At their throats for a lot of the second half. We just needed a bit of fortune. I've not given up hope by any means. Swansea didn't just turn up to make up the numbers - so we need to work out how to beat them, somehow or other. Great effort Barnsley.
We're still in this. We can have a right good go at them in the 2nd leg. We have to score against them sooner or later
I thought he should have lifted it off the floor. He could have even taken a touch and done an Ole on the Keeper and Defender. Small margins.
Mowatt looked to have tears in his eyes when he reached the tunnel at the end. Big Val put his arm around him, I bet that's his last game at Oakwell.
We know that we've got to score on Saturday whereas Swansea won't know wether to stick or twist, still all to play for like you say.
In to them next game only half time. They are ugly team to play against. Spend more time on the floor. Im still not counting us out yet Up the reds
Not a lot in it tonight watching as a neutral. Ayew is of course a class act and was the difference but from what I have seen of Dyke he could equally do that. Swansea may suffer from knowing whether to stick of bust. Swansea are no world beaters, just fairly compact. Definitely far from over for you. I see you have realeased five players, great that means Luton can now have a full team of ex Barnsley so we should make the play-offs next season
I don't think it's Val's fault. Things just didn't fall into place in the final third. Could've scored tonight just unlucky.
