    are the result of inviting pressure onto yourself.

    I'm convinced that if we take a more positive approach to away games we wouldn't concede as many late goals.

    Paul D have you got stats for late goals socred / conceded under Davey?

    3 Strikers - how more a positive approach do you want?

    A dubious 1st and a spawny second - we were unlucky - plain and simple. Did enough to earn a draw.

    What some ppl forget is we are Barnsley not Real Madrid!

    yes, 2 of the 3 strikers are struggling to score regulalrly but if there's nobody available then we have to, as SD says "go with what we've got" if we play like that in our next 2 games we'll win em both for sure.

    I appreciate we played well yesterday mate

    but in general, away from home, we tend to invite pressure on to ourselves too much.

    As I say, it would be good to see how many late goals we have conceded.

    In general, our away tactics are too negative and our away form under Davey is appalling.

    I think Davey is the right man for the job, I like him, if he manages to get our away form to just average, we will be on the cusp of a play off challenge.

    I am not talking about yesterday as an isolated incident, but our away form and tactics under Davey for the last few years.

    I disagree, thought we were the better side 2nd half and could have easily won it so I don't think we were negative tbh. We sat back off them a few times but all they did was pass the ball backwards and sidewards whereas if we had gone chasing it they would have found more holes in the defence and he would get blame for being too attacking.

    Totally agree, dunt no why we sat back becasue we were the better team for the biggest part and should have had at least a draw.
