Afternoon chaps.
Big 'un today. Looks like a strong line up though.
Typical Bank Holiday here - Freezing cold, wet and windy.

A rare game for me. Sitting in the north stand for the first time since going for 30 odd years and my 4 year olds first ever game. Been nice already watching him experience it all for the first time - just hope the result doesn’t let him down!

Thats a strong line-up, lets hope they do the biz
Enjoy your day RTW
Yup barring Happe that's pretty much our strongest starting XI right there

Keeley is weak as f*ck at crosses.
That's going to be the thing he's going to need to improve massively on if he wants to play at a higher level.
That goal has been coming, after a decent start we're getting overrun.

We're getting absolutely mullered. Have not shown up against a decent looking Barnsley side.

Our midfield arent showing anything, need to pick it up
Brown is too slow to react to loose balls, basically being carried by Pratley as per usual

Midfield is the problem again. Brown too slow on the ball, Pratley too slow off it. And Beckles looks way off the pace.
