    I also can’t watch the game back. I’ve seen the penalty and sending off a couple of times but anything else? Nope, absolutely not.

    As soon as the Philips challenge went in I said red. Haven't really changed my mind watching it back. The penalty decision was just outrageous, but it went with the theme of that season, we just weren't getting them, especially at home. I've no doubt that everyone at the FA and EFL wanted Sheffield Wednesday to win that day. Weather that message was sent to the officials, we'll never know.

    I cant even talk about Connells miss. Worse than Odejayi's.

    The coach we got didn't have any air con and it was red hot that day. The coach was stook in traffic for about an hour trying to get into Wembley, in the end we sacked it off and walked the last mile. We then had the same issue on the way home after the game.

    Awful day. Probably the worst feeling I've ever had as a Barnsley fan.

    Because of his performances against them I’m sure they would have found a sneaky way to kick him out of the game early on, had he been fit.

    The disappointment was bad…. But the massives a hole delusional fans telling me how they deserved the win and were the better team, that it was definitely a sending off, etc. Still pains me to this day. Worst ever team to lose to as it just fuels their ridiculous superiority complex.

    That’s quite funny. Duff’s had two years of people trying to put down the job he did at Barnsley on here & their main criticism is him picking Tedic over Norwood & then you just drop that bit of info

    I had the complete opposite mate tbh. After the game and from those I worked with. You'll allus get wisecracks. Calling it large. But most fans I found complimentary towards us. Acknowledging we were the better team. Especially after the sending off.
    Got to admit. I can't think of a game more gut wrenching for me.
