    Peculiar incident in the first half when attacking - Wilks leapt and dropped dramatically to the sodden turf.

    From my angle it seemed as though there was no contact. And it looked like a scene from Simulation City.

    Ref gave no foul.

    Can anyone shed any light?

    Yes...blatant cheating dive, those around me all said the same

    I was very disappointed to see that from a Barnsley player

    Yeah yeah plenty will say all teams do it but it don't sit easy with me.

    Stop it Wilks, you are good enough without resorting to cheating

    It was definitely a dive. Disappointing. Hope Stendel picks up on that

    Me too. Seeing opposition players cheat really frustrates me and it's no different when it's one of our own players. Stop it.

    Aye totally agree. The only thing I found disappointing in his performance today.

    Hopefully he’s shown the incident a few times over the coming days and finds it as embarrassing as we do.
