Matchday megathread, Barnsley v Wrexham

It's hard to tell though, Hourihane was a near ever present in a promoted team last season, but now he's virtually bed ridden, apparently.

 

Eh? I must have missed that one?

Great result, battled for 2nd half with some great last ditch saves and defending. Rode our luck and it held out. Killip deserved the MOM as he had his best game for us and saved us a few times.

 

Lol, chill art, weren’t offensive what I said and weren’t as laughable as how you treating it, give me your address and I’ll send thi another dummy!

 

Happy new year to both of you. Just saying for context....

 

Thank you, but obviously he don’t like criticism yet criticism of Clarke he was willing to wrongly give, Happy new year to you mate

 

Don't know about your family and friends, but mine come out with all sorts of theories. I have never, and will never, address them as being laughable. I've never even said that to you despite you misjudging Watters for years and trying to make out I don't know what I'm talking about because I've come out against the general consensus and claimed him to be a good player. Which he clearly is.

 

Like I said previously, when you want to act like a decent human being, I'll answer you. Obviously you don't want to yet.

 

I hope you are right. But we absolutely put them under the cosh for nearly the entire game at their place. Swings and roundabouts and all that. Fekk em.

 

I can see why mangers like to pass it out from the back when you have him kicking it over the East Stand touchline over and over again!

 

You mean for Wrexham right? The worst of our defenders by a country mile today, went on an idiotic cavalry charge and got caught up field for one of their rare chances in the first half, gave away half a dozen corners needlessly after Wrexham mis-controls gifted the ball to him, spent the majority of the second half out of position, was lucky not to give away two penalties and if Mullin's finishing had been anything like would have been on the hook for two to three goals. There's not of the rare things he didn't do erroneously today that I wouldn't have expected a youth team player to do.

Funny, but I wouldn't give anyone MotM because they 'gave everything and battled' - I'd expect that of every player as a minimum. He gets over-praised for doing things that are second nature and absolute basics to most other EFL defenders. And why his nationality has to come into it is totally baffling - are you insinuating that the French as a whole don't give everything and therefore he should be singled out for, in your view, bucking this trend? If so, that is just weird.

It was telling that the defence didn't look the same once Earl had gone off and only the saves by Killip and misses by Wrexham kept the lead.

Great win btw and I'm happy with the three points.

21 seconds until he fell over

Seconded They had their chances and didn't take them, we took ours and deserved that win! Proper enjoyed it today at Oakwell, glad they've decided to try something other than Hey Jude as well!

 

I say, your post weren’t the best admit it, we all get it wrong now and again, it happens mate, now if me saying it was laughable upsets you that much then I am sorry, But you must be a very touchy person indeed to be aggrieved at that, and I am a decent human being whether you want to hear it or not......Happy New Year

 

Happy New Year

 

Yes, even from goal kicks. His general goalkeeping is good enough for this level (a few good saves today) but his distribution is a tad under par. Goalkeeping coach take note.

 

Mwah

 

I thought he was really good today. Not sure how you thought he was worse than Pines, who was literally all over the shop.

 

Agreed.

Second half wasn't a great watch, but knowing our home record they were probably nervy.

Now they can push on.
