    It meant a lot to supporters and players on Leeds United to beat us didn't it

    I thought they'd won the champions league the way they were celebrating

    and if we had won......

    we would have done exactly the same.

    A Yorkshire derby , 3 points away from home, go above the Pigs, 1 point from the play-offs, one of our better starts to a season.


    Yes indeed fella had we won then we would have done exactly the same.

    Strange one that thought it was our cup final.... apparently leeds don't care about us we are just a small town in south Yorkshire....they have less than 15k season ticket holders and over 24k leeds fans were there to see the barnsley.... Just shows how far we have come in the past 12.months too

    I live amongst them and they're nervous when they play us. Don't let anyone kid you that they're not bothered about us.

    They will have been greatly relieved to hold on for the win yesterday and have a bit of respite until they come to ours.

    We've handed them some real football lessons over the years and they hate that.

    At my sons footy match yesterday some of the comments were laughable

    1 guy said they battered us even though he had only listened on radio Leeds, even asked what game I'd been watching when I disagreed. I said I'd watched that game at Elland road not the one on radio bias

    then someone else who had been agreed with him that they absolutely battered us.

    Another dad was telling everyone that Leeds were fantastic and had 70% possession

    It's their Cup final. Always has been. Oakwell usually the only away end they sell out all season.

    Some of their fans on the forums were really happy at how they played. They scored both goals against the run of play, had less possession than us, and we're hanging on desperately at the end.

    For a supposedly large, established championship club that counts Chelsea and Man United as their rivals, they have pretty low standards if they think they played well on Saturday.
