Not_Hemsworth-Tyke Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 A great game to watch from a neutrals point of view, very stretched in the second half, end to end stuff. We played really well and can be proud of our performance, but unfortunately for us you were the better side at scoring goals, and that's what counts. After your first goal, which had a hint of good fortune about it, we lost our heads a bit and the half time whistle was a relief. 2nd half i felt we stretched the game and looked like grabbing the deserved equaliser, but your boys dug in, and your keeper made a couple of match winning saves. After your second goal, that was it, game over. The red card was harsh, and after watching it back it would have been harsh had Hutchinson had been sent off. Two different types of ball winning challenges, one from an attacker trying to retain possession and create an attack and the other from a defender trying win the ball any way possible. A typical derby challenge. Unfortunately the referee was a disgrace, but its nothing we're not used to this season. I'm not blaming the referee for the result though, you scored two goals, and defended well, so fair play. Anyway, best of luck for the rest of season, we'll see you at Oakwell in a couple of months.

mozzy85 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Sorry but the sending off was justified. Two footed tackle with both feet off ground, it could have been a nasty injury to our Sam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANDY Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Barnsley played very well. We did to you what Reading/Fulham/Brum etc did to us, put the goal chances away. I dont think youll have anything to worry about. You'll not go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutch wins the ball and clears it out of play - as intended by the way he went into the tackle. Care to explain what Hammil was planning to do by lunging 2 feet together down towards the top of the ball, getting none of it and fortunately not injuring Hutchinson? No way is that how you tackle to 'try and retain possession'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan27 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Think both challenges could easily be a yellow or sending off. Be best just to say each one was iffy so do nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ash60s Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Hamill in the wrong on two counts - both feet & the shove afterwards - he'll learn (pity ref hasn't) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
