By Simon Meeks Barnsley HUNGARIAN duo Peter Rajczi and Istvan Ferenczi are poised to lead Barnsley's attack in tonight's relegation six-pointer with Hull at Oakwell. Barnsley are missing Daniel Nardiello, who begins a three-match ban. Out- of-favour Paul Hayes has been ruled out of making a comeback, having suffered a dose of flu. Ferenczi is set to retain his place in the team after scoring on his debut at Southampton. Rajczi has recovered from illness. Barnsley manager Simon Davey's other attacking option is Marc Richards, who is a target man and too similar to Ferenzci to play alongside him. Davey has to find cover for another flu victim, Dwayne Mattis, in midfield. He will hand the role to fit-again Grant McCann, Ritchie Jones or Kyel Reid. Paul Heckingbottom is set to replace Adam Eckersley at left-back again as Eckersley has been ruled out with a groin problem. There is also a slight doubt about skipper Paul Reid's fitness. He skipped training with sore feet, Davey reported. Barnsley decided not to appeal against Nardiello's red card at Southampton. There was no clear video of the incident between the Barnsley striker and defender Chris Baird. If the FA ruled against Barnsley, they could increase the punishment from a three -match ban to four. "We're 100 per cent sure he is innocent, but 99 per cent certain we would lose the appeal," Davey explained. It's third from bottom v fourth from bottom tonight. Both clubs have 32 points. Said Davey: "It is very important that we win every game, especially against the teams around us. "If you look at previous seasons, about 50 points gets you safe. I don't think that it will take that. "The clock is ticking for everyone. The teams down there have stayed the same, Leeds, Barnsley, Southend and Hull. We have pulled QPR and Luton into it. There are a few teams above with around 40 points. I don't think they're safe either. "I'm sure it will go to the wire. We know that the finishing line is May 6." Barnsley from Colgan, Hassell, P Reid, Nyatanga, Hecking-bottom, Devaney, Togwell, Howard, K Reid, Rajczi, Ferenczi, Lucas, Atkinson, McCann, Richards, Austin, Coulson.
the star make me chuckle kyel reid in centre of midfield? "SKIPPER Paul Reid's fitness. He SKIPPED training" - the teachers teach you not to use similar words so close together when ya in your 1st year at high school (blagger)
The teachers probably advise you not to do that and I think you'll find it's using words that are the same not spelt similarly but have totally different meanings. Unless I am mistaken, Paul Reid is not someone who skips a lot, he is our captain. Get a bloody life!
RE: the star make me chuckle Perhaps the training session included skipping. So the skipper skipped skipping!
