    My favourite bit it

    "Yet does our enlightened manager see this? No, he instead waffles on about how we were unlucky, and the equal of Barnsley. Nonsense. Barnsley contained us at will, their Goalie didn’t make ONE difficult save and the simple fact is our opposition looked happy to play on third gear all game as that’s all they needed to do. I never felt we could score and I never thought Barnsley looked in trouble. Little obviously can’t tell the difference between a team containing with ease and playing within themselves, as our opposition did today, and a team struggling to deal with us. I’m sure had the need arose Barnsley could have taken us apart at will, but why, in a long season, take the chance of being caught on a counter or waste unneeded energy? A fully competent and professional performance from them I thought. "

    Pretty much spot on

    we dominated the first half, had greater possesion, defence was magnificent at times, they tried to come at us in the second half without really threatening at all, then in last 15-20 mins we could have had a few more goals, we ran at em and it did look easy at times,
