Barnsley vs Leyton Orient fun fact.

Both goalkeepers are on loan from Middlesbrough.

 

Got a wealth of talent in the goalkeeping department. then.

 

We won.

 

The ref still looking for whatever he lost

 

Another fun fact. We’ve had a red card in each of our last 4 games against them.

And another. When we last played them at home, before yesterday, we beat them 2-0 in 2014. Our goal scorers that day were Conor Hourihane and…Devante Cole!,

 

Really? I thought it was odd that when the teams changed ends, they ignored each other, when I expected at least a handshake or summat. Clearly not a "fun" fact for them.

 

Here's that match from 10 years ago.
It looked harsh with the red card, but what was he doing rushing out like that.
Two nicely taken goals on the day from Connor and Devante.

 

Here’s another odd connection about that game. It was Ross Turnbull who got sent off, ANOTHER ex- Middlesbrough keeper.

 

I don't know if I've got it wrong, but look at the difference in how our two scorers celebrated. Maybe that's why a lot of us didn't quite take to Devante in that first spell.

 

Not harsh at all. He was sent off for deliberately handling the ball outside the box

 

So was it handball then. I thought with their player flopping down like he did, that they were claiming he'd brought him down.
