    Well, to the players of Barnsley Football Club - what a day! A Hot, sunny and The Wembley Stadium. You were facing the MASSIVE Sheffield Wednesday and all of the Sky Sports pundits had already written "little old Barnsley" OFF before the kick off-"a team of No hopers, chancers, losers". "Wednesday are Massive".

    Well they weren't were they? As a team they are pretty good and scored 96 points I think..

    A totally justifiable Penalty that was denied to little old Barnsley and a Red Card that was totally unjustified that was awarded against Barnsley nearly Fúcked us over. But from 49 mins onwards you showed the Wendies they weren't that great. Grit, determination and belief that you could win served you well.

    What a great team you are and we love your spirit and fire. Please stay with Barnsley and enjoy next season with us.

    Bert the pen was a 50/50 decision but did the ref consult var?
    The red was unfortunately a red.
    Off the ground and not in control is a red these days.
    I’m gutted at the outcome and the fk League got the result they wanted.

    The penalty was never 50/50, Kitching gets the ball first and then gets booted by their player with that much force it turns his leg. I'm not sure how anyone can say that was a 50/50 decision?

    50/50 on first viewing which the the ref saw.
    But did he consult video evidence?

    How come every one of the pundits, ex players and commentators thought it was a yellow at most which says in my opinion the ref should have gone to the screen and looked at it and then made a decision.And as for the penalty,it was nearly as bad a decision as the Burton one.
