Early chance for Joe Ironside just wide
-
Muchas gracias Dutch. I was starting to panic ...
Only got BBC online score updates. But slow
Bob
-
Big chance for Sbarra saved, and follow up for Gibson saved for corner
Anderson heads corner wide
Definitely on top early against a young Barnsley side
-
Should be 2-0 up already, sbarra with a sitter.
Cant see us not winning this
-
Sbarra misses one on one, then puts one of the best corner crosses I’ve seen in a long time to Tom who heads wide. Good play, poor finishing
-
Thought I'd at last get to see a match in Colombia this weekend. But no. Here in Bogota local side Millionarios are playing their city rivals Santa Fe this weekend. Not a ticket to be had....
Bob
-
We are getting a lot of joy against the Barnsley defence and are on top but seem to be wasting chances
-
Twas ever thus....
BobG
-
Good save from another Ironside shot
And Barnsley with a good break and a rare chance
-
All over them; got 3-0 all over it
-
Just a matter of time to Rovers going up.
-
All over them; got 3-0 all over it
I hope you mean 0-3.
-
Barnsley now more in the match, neat so far without a cutting edge
Barnsley cross headed out for a corner, defended OK
-
Looks and feels to casual to me - training ground feel to this.
-
Anderson, Nixon and Kelly standing out for me so far
Sbarra cross put behind for a corner, Anderson header easily saved
-
Looks and feels to casual to me - training ground feel to this.
Would agree with that
-
Good save from Lawlor as Barnsley create a central shooting position - we were very open
-
Massive let off then
-
A goal would be handy right now
-
We ought to be well up by now but our finishing could be better.
-
Really sloppy - starting to get annoyed.....
-
Looks and feels to casual to me - training ground feel to this.
Very tame game isn’t it. Needs a goal to liven it up
-
Doing what we normally do, build up is fine but the final ball isn’t great!
-
It's like a stroll in the park - no urgency and sooo frustrating.
-
Yes Joe! Great Header!
-
Joe Ironside header from good cross by Fleming 0-1 :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:
Edit: might have been Senior with the cross - far side, difficult to see
-
Goal
-
Bullet header by Joe!!!
-
Lovely bullet header from Ironside. Must boost his confidence no end. Well done Joe.
-
I got a stream just in time :)
Nice goal
BobG
-
Would you believe it good left footed cross and Joe plants it. But the goal shows what we are missing for Joe good crosses our two on Saturday and tonight have come from good crosses from the left.
Gibson not a left sided player Kelly poor but we are winning
-
Big Joe knocks grants son out the way to score
-
I was just about to say our cold blooded killers in front of goal seem to be showing mercy on our young Barnsley counterparts.
Maybe Ironside didn't fancy facing the firing squad at Half Time!
-
We cannot keep letting teams off the hook, we got away with missing chance after chance at the weekend, (just) but for anyone who cannot see tonight’s game, it could already be a cricket score without exaggeration.
-
Pretty good until the final shot i would say. Miles better than the young Barnsley team and with 20 changes that shows depth.

Not with you there and not sure where you watch cricket - we've been pretty toothless....
-

It was a good driven corner but it was exactly the same as the one at MKDons which Tom headed in for our goal.
-
That should have been advantage...
BobG
-
Bad referring benefits us - Anderson gives ball away, fouls, advantage not played as Barnsley player nets. Yellow for Anderson
-
Gibson is very selfish sometimes, should’ve pass there instead of going for goal.
-
It does seem to be a consistent theme, this season, where we get chance after chance and continue to be anything but ruthless.
I’ll bet GM & Co are doing quite a bit of homework for who we can bring in, come January. Miller would have been handy to have on the bench, tonight!
-
Gibbo not having a very good game tonight.
Lots of wrong decisions and poor passes.
-
Pass the fookin ball - shocking decisions being made.
-
Love watching Jack Senior defend
-
Love watching Jack Senior defend
He's having a good game again
-
That was soo close.. Great move
-
Very disappointed with Gibson. Some very poor play by him.
-
That was soo close.. Great move
The Barnsley youngsters looking good attacking on occasion
-
Think Grants son seems to be having a decent game for them.
-
Bailey on for Senior
-
We can be very incisive can't we?!
BobH
-
I dislike Barnsley FC with a passion (historical) but they appear to have a very promising set of youngsters on this evenings display so far.

Welcome to the forum BobH
-
Yes. Fleming dived in my eyes.
Bob
-
Fleming was past the defender there, clear shot on goal . Dick head
-
Getting sloppy, and not entirely convincing
Hurst, Yeboah and Clifton on for Gibson, Nixon and Sbarra
-
Clifton with a second
0-2
-
Just as I say - Clifton puts in a Hurst cross 0-2 :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:
-
Hurst with the assist again 2-0
-
Hurst on fire?
-
Nicely worked goal. Evening gents
-
We can look bloody good can't we? And we can look more sloppy than any team I can remember too...
BobG
-
Jesus Christ we are shit sometimes too!
-
Close showing why he doesn’t get picked, gave the ball away so many times in dangerous areas
-
I might be reading this wrong but can't see McCann being too happy he's had to bring on Bailey & Hurst.
-
1-2 :facepalm:
-
f**k 1-2
-
Moly on for Close, that should help
-
Bringing moly on now close off
-

Out of all the local sides I don’t mind Barnsley, obviously love to beat them but they’re a proper club supported by people from the tarn, unlike Leeds and the Sheffield clubs, who are massive and have worldwide followings.
2-1, here we go!
:chair:
-
I’m a Big Ben Close fan, I think he is one of the best ball playing midfielders in the league, but he is having a shocker in the second half - I’m certain he’s had a both teams to score bet
-
That was poor. We ain't good defensively are we?
-
Need to stop messing about at the back and run down the wings with the ball
-
Classic Lawlor. Doesn’t come for the cross and then too slow to even react, let alone dive for the shot.
-
McCann saves a certain goal - great shot from Hurst
-
Hurst 1-3
-
Get in subs sorted it out
1-3
-
1-3 Hurst :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:
-
Hurst, imagine if he had been in the team all season. Well impressed by him
-
Superb team goal
-
Hurst has gone from bit part player to main man in 10 days- every touch looks high class
-
Thanks for the updates. Currently in vegas playing poker and the guy sat next to me stinks of piss!
-
Good controlled finish by Kyle.
-
Thanks for the updates. Currently in vegas playing poker and the guy sat next to me stinks of piss!
Is his name Bob?
-
Could have scored another 3 since our 3rd
-

Colourful update!
-
I only got to turn it on with twenty minutes to go. In that time we have been brilliant. Battering them and still going for the throat with a minute to go.
-
Kelly’s looked good from what I’ve seen in this second half
-

Strange man....
-
Anybody else think Kelly has looked brilliant tonight. The way he carries the ball from deep to start counter attacks looks like we could be onto a gem if you keep him playing he'll only get better. Also had plenty of chances and unlucky not to put one away
-
Kelly needs to be told to pass the ball.
He is holding on to it for too long, trying to beat every Barnsley player instead of laying it off to team mates.
-
Ironside looked a lot better tonight
-
Yeah Kelly hasn’t got a lot of finesse but he did bring a lot of drive which I have not seen from him before- bodes well if he is growing in to the role
-
Which is what happened with Craig last season.
-
Just knocked him out thank God. Poker that is.
-
That score line massively flatters them! I don’t know their team, or if it was mainly youngsters but they ain’t good, against what is by no means our first team. They (Barnsley) did better in the second half, but it allowed more space for us.
-
Yes. I thought that Toastie.
BobG
-
Into the next round and more money, great to make so many changes and still win yeah first half was so so, 2nd half was even until we brought on some of the 1st team to wrap the game up, after the 3rd we should have got at least 2 more, hopefully grant and cliff will be happy and we now need to go beat barrow and win another cup game

Yes me too, I've been a big fan of him in the past but seems to be going backwards, done absolutely zero tonight to give McCann a headache. He made a run into the right side of the box early on & then nothing. Reverted back to type, playing in his little 5 yard zone generally passing back & playing us into trouble, one of which a poor pass to Anderson which led to his booking. Really needs to step up his game or he will be on the bench or out of the squad for the season.
