    good: completely outsinging the Ricoh graveyard until we were two or three down. That mexican wave that distracted a couple of people near me from the goal. The goal - a decent header I thought. Togwell's shot was good as well. Finally, I enjoyed the moment at 0-0 when everyone in the ground, including me thought they had scored and telling them all to sit down when Colgan scooped it up. The ground was nice too.

    bad: the rest. Reid, Heckingbottom and Austin all had terrible games, and with those around him Nyatanga couldn't possibly do well. The attack was completely unable to do anything becuase the defence couldn't win the ball afetr the first twenty minutes.

    "what the fook do you want, we're 4-0 darn yer silly *****!"

    ground is very plastic - one of these places where you think its ok for a one of trip but I'm glad it's not our ground - much prefer Oakwell.

    To be honest, I can't understand why they moved - there was not a lot wrong with Highfield Road IMO - it suited their needs.

    How many millions has it cost them to add a few extra thousand to their capacity with the new place, over what HR held?
