    Absolutely bottled the perfect chance to make up ground on the top 2. No-one looked bothered in the second half. Pathetic mentality.

    Other than the first 15 minutes it felt like i was watching a mid table team with nothing to play for, that last minute Bolton penalty seems to have knocked any belief out of us.

    Second half felt like a non event really.

    First half though we could’ve easily been 2 or 3 up after 15 minutes.

    Also give a little credit to Cheltenham, ran their blood to water.

    Absolutely, however as far as teams go, they were one of the poorest I've seen at Oakwell this season. I don't mean that disrespectfully. Just incredibly passive all over the pitch and very little quality of note. We were unable to break them down, and seemed to run out of ideas after 50 minutes. IMO today says far more about us than them.

    If we'd got the early goal it could have been a thrashing but the longer the game went on it gave Cheltenham something to hang on to and we didn't have the answer.

    I agree but it just shows you what can be achieved if we roll our sleeves up & battle to the end, although for different reasons. We have to win, if winning ugly means success then so be it.

    The changes weren't positive enough for me. I'd have brought on Cole to compliment Mcatee and Cosgrove and taken Phillips off. I thought Russell was having having a good game. I wouldn't have brought Marsh on either.

    The lack of urgency second half bothered me. Slowing down throw ins, passing backwards etc.
