    No, not nativity, although given the performance you'd be forgiven for thinking panto season had arrived at Oakwell.

    So, so frustrating to watch tonight. At 2-1 there was something sticking in the back of my throat and it wasn't the Goodfellas pizza I'd just hungrily devoured after racing home from work, hungrier still to watch the Reds in action for the first time since the Villa game.

    It has to be a huge blip? Surely. We haven't played, defended and worked like that in other games pray tell. That was hugely uncharacteristic and hugely humiliating. I really wish I hadn't watched.

    Positives:

    + Brees attacking threat
    + Winnall looked lively

    Negatives:

    - Davies looked anything like his assured self
    - Hourihane, Armstrong, Scowen, Hammill - all key players and all hugely ineffective.
    - Watkins - what are you even doing there? Killed the game good and proper
    - Workrate and defensive capabilities - pub league stuff.
