VictoryBell Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Just now, Ever the pessimist said: I wish: 10 months into a year’s abstinence. Picked wrong season for it didn’t I? Nah - not at all! Save the electric soup (I've got a lovely bottle of English Nye Timber "Champagne" a-waiting) for next season - that's when we'll be celebrating!

It will be backs to the wall today but we've shown against the pigs and last weekend that even down to 10 men we haven't thrown the towel in. So, if the team doesn't why are people on here giving it the white flag? Your wrong... i wanted him gone after 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twolaptops Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Looking at the terrible weather conditions at present.........and thinking what sort of player I would not want to be playing against when skill may be secondary to awkwardness & big pain in the ar£e opponent............it's Dave time.

Fuzzy logics Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Despite the number of injuries we have we should still have too much quality for Barnsley, especially in attack (Wallace, Boyd, Reach, Joao, Rhodes). Jos needs to get the maximum out of them today. If he does we will win, if not...worrying signs indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We go again. As to Barnsley, I bumped into a former colleague at Sheffield station the other day who hails from that strange town (see below). He oozed pessimism. i oozed it back. But having forecast us to lose last week, I feel cautiously optimistic this. Cautiously. On Barnsley, a friend got a job as head of science in a secondary school there. He came back well supplied with....anecdotes. Parents evenings were not like parents evenings elsewhere. And here we have the populace in action. It is not quite what John Stuart Mill had in mind. To be fair mate I'm not sure many British people could name one EU official never mind three. And as for John Stuart Mill.... who does he play for? (Only messin...) As for the game.... a very hopeful and optimistic 2 nowt us... Edited February 10, 2018 by Bleeder Spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazzamk2 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 We need some positivity today, kickass away support will be there to sing the boys to VICTORY! Thanks for the OMDT mi'lud, best thread of the week by a country mile as always. 1-3 today, with 2 for Juwow and a confidence breeding diving header from 'our' Jordan. UP THE OWLS!!!!!!!

Dylan93 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 The line up in the reverse fixture. Westwood Hunt* Lees Van Aken Pudil* Reach* Lee Bannan Wallace Fletcher Hooper *Current fit players Barring FF and Hutch, we wasn’t far off our best side. We was awful that day with Reach scoring a flukey goal. So forget injuries. We need to get behind the boys and be the 12th man. We still have more quality than Barnsley with young lads chomping at the bit. Massive game, we really need 3 points! UTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigthinrob Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Excellent as usual. Extremely well written & insightful. Some very interesting & thought provoking observations, especially about our 'fans' and the lunacy of the 'criticism' regarding Jos after all of a handful of games. We have to wonder sometimes (even allowing for the current 'situation'), whether we are becoming are own worst enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remind me, I may be wrong, but did not the majority of the country as a whole agree with the comments quoted in your attempt to ridicule the Barnsley 'populace'. If I have misinterpreted your comments, I apologise in advance, if not, stop assuming that it was only 'numpties' who voted Leave and anyone of 'superior understanding' voted alongside the chattering classes of Islington & the City to keep the non elected status quo. Not entirely sure why you threw it in anyway other than to presumably make the Dingles look stupid (Failed), but not necessary, come on Wednesday and as Snoots said, "Get off certain players backs" and support the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

striker Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 We're short on defenders now, would like to see 4 at the back and another body further up the pitch. A winnable game which we need 3 points from. Hopeful, but not overly optimistic. If we go 5 at the back expect another 0-0, but be more attacking and we might sneak it by the odd goal.

Unless he plays two of the academy lads in the back three with Fred , which may be too risky , then i think it will be a back four today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
