From Barnsley Star By Neil Goulding 3rd May 2013 Tykes assistant boss gave his thoughts before tomorrow's crunch relegation battle. "We want to go to Huddersfield and win, we don't want to come away with any sour grapes. For me, Flicker and Scotty, this team is the apple of our eyes, and we'll be crushed if we don't get the result we want. Yes, we have a game plan, we are going to squeeze the midfield areas, and try and pip the opposition to the second balls. There will not be much juice on the pitch so we won't be able to zip it about as usual. However, if we can play the way we did against Hull, we are sure that style will bear fruit. "Someone will be the stars tomorrow, and someone will be the lemons, but we are confident of plantain ourselves in the Championship for another season. We are going out to berry the opposition, be it from a rasping drive, or a slice into the net, we just want to avoid slipping up on a banana skin. "These lads have given everything, and whatever happens, we will be stopping at The Cherry Tree at High Hoyland for a few pints on the way home. It's a small pub, so it might be a bit of a squash". (for Keith Hills Jacket)
Re: You pipped me to it Ahhhhhhhhh brilliant as always, just what we needed to lighten the mood. You missed a good chance to say "We have a fully fit strong core to the team"
Re: You pipped me to it I just hope it doesn't go all pear-shaped tomorrow or we could see Bobbins attempting to cherry pick our best players in the close season. That would really upset the apple cart.
Got about 1/3 of way down before i clicked lol!! Hey mate u stil got the pub in farnley tyas?? Do u run it or is it managed? Was thinking of stopping off there today.
Yes mate, it's The Golden **** and it will be open from 11am if you fancy a pint and/or an bacon sarnie. My business partner runs it but I'll be there with a few mates.
