We looked like a Championship team playing against League 1/2. Our whole team looked a class above Fleetwood. How we didn't run out 3-0 winners at least I'll never know. But if you dont kill team off thats what happens and credit to Fleetwood for stopping us in that final third. Like the last few games against Swindon, Bradford, Rochdale, Shrewsbury the only way I could see us conceding was from a set piece or individual error. I think thats a massive credit to LJ that as a team we look so solid. In fact I haven't seen a Barnsley side look so good as a collective unit for years. Cant wait for Sunday now. Come on you reds!
Winnall could have had another hattrick, 2 stonewall pens not given, one that should have been red card for last man, flus fletchers sitter at the end... I'd have taken 7-1... But score don't matter. We are going to Wembley!
We did miss being clinical in the final third, but our play was a cut above. We looked a very good side.
The problem being, we need everyone to have a 8/10 game more often if we're going to, not only get promoted, but become and established championship side again. I'd say that's the best I've seen, Hourihane, Browning, Long, Mawson and Bree, play for us. It was a big game situation. They pulled out a performance. This isn't a criticism, more an observation. If they turned out a performance like that week in week out, they wouldn't be playing in League 1 that's for sure. Sent from my I-Microwave using the internets
