    I am absolutely, totally and utterly gutted that I wasn't able to be there for today's amazing win, but the fact that at least I was able to watch it live on TV meant I and others shared in the ecstasy of seeing that goal go in rather than hear it on radio or whatever...

    Yes I'm disappointed I couldn't get a ticket but watching that at Oakwell at least partly made up for it.

    Amazing performance Barnsley.

    Just gonna watch Sky Sports News all night until MOTD :)

    I echo your sentiments. Wonder how many fans took advantage of the chance to watch the match on the screen?

    I was very disappointed when I didn't get a ticket. None of my family did either, so we all went to the beam back yesterday. We just went for the once in lifetime experience type of thing, not expecting it to be anything particularly special. And when we got there it all seemed a bit surreal, but as the game went on we really got in to it, as it seemed did the rest of the Barnsley fans down there. The atmosphere was electric. The songs from the Barnsley fans over at Anfield filled our ears and we all started to join in. I don't claim for a minute it was better than being there, but when Howard's goal went in we all went equally as mental and experienced all the same emotions as the fans at Anfield. It was a fantastic day and I'll remember it for the rest of my life. Thank you to those at BFC who brought in the big screen, which allowed those of us who missed out on tickets to have a fantastic afternoon.

    I'm genuinely glad those who didn't get tickets were still able to saviour such a moment in Barnsley FC's history. In an ideal world we would all have been packed into Anfield, but that's life.

    I still can't quite believe we actually won that game, luck was definitely on our side.
