Who was missing?Illness apparently
Tend to agreeA flat atmosphere overall bar spells but not surprising. A draw would have been fair in the end but we didn't take our chances.
I get people chanting for KR to go but the "Super Matty Taylor" chant aimed at him after the final whistle was laughable. Many have been complaining that MT has been starting ahead GO'D so fantastic revisionism there.
Seriously what is the point of GF and TW being here other than stealing a wage? What are they for?!Agree with all of this.
Tim Williams is risking our League One status by being too weak and/or frit to make the right decision for both KR and the club.
It’s torturous for everyone concerned to carry on like this and I know of literally no one who is having fun in the stadium. It’s been like this for getting on for a year now.
As a CEO he needs to read the mood of the club better. He refers to us as customers because his background is in finance. But football isn’t just about numbers on a spreadsheet, no matter how much compensation he might need to pay to KR.
The club is a sleepwalking and our CEO is looking the least likely of anyone to wake up and smell the coffee.
Sidelined by the petulant idiot. KR is obviously bigger than the club!Agree on Findlay - not pretty, but we look so much more solid at the back when he is playing. Says so much about the manager that he has been sidelined (seems like far too many seem to be).
Spot on.I’m confused as to why the players are being praised for not giving up, when that should be a given, i mean, they’re professional footballers for god sake, and they’re always gonna try, this isn’t Sunday league, although we do play like a Sunday league team.
Another awful display, people can desperately clutch at straws all the want, and claim we had a good 15 minute spell after the goal, but we didn’t, we just upped our intensity a little bit, while Barnsley’s surprisingly shite defence had a little wobble, and we still couldn’t score!
We looked shite from start to finish, we’re simply awful, a team of individuals, and I can honestly say there isn’t one single player in our current squad that I’d want here next season, with the exception of Brannagan (just) although he’s been utter shite this season, regardless of the goals he’s scored.
It’s time we accepted that we’re just not very good, in all departments, on and off the pitch, and until some big changes are made, including the communication between the club and fans, then this is all gonna end in tears.
Our board need to stop being such weak little cowards, and take the club by the scruff of the neck, and shake things up with the necessary changes needed, before too much damage is done, and it’s too late.
They were ill. Some sort of sickness bug, apparently.Can't be bothered to go through the 33 pages, sorry if its been mentioned but anyone notice or know where LBS and WB were yesterday? I know WB posted something on social media on Monday from Cornwall
It was always going to happen. If anybody other than KR had let him go it would’ve been a progressive move. Instead, it’s a catastrophe.Tend to agree
When Matt Taylor did play there were often chants for O'Donkor and very few for Taylor
Herbie Kane & Nicky Cadden were Barnsley’s best players.
What could’ve been; hey.

I wouldn’t have let him go until the end of the season but then again I also wouldn’t fall out with my best players and go to bed on an argument every day of the season.
The point is Taylor was ineffective in the way we’re approaching games. Yesterday was no different but you can see already that Tyler Smith is expecting it and his movement is clever. He gave Barnsley a headache. The ball over the top won Leicester city the premier league, but you need someone who will go after them (Vardy) on the off chance one falls right in to his lap or a defender makes a mistake. Taylor isn’t that player. You could say he was wasted on us, in the end, as we don’t play any football anymore in forward areas.
Spot on. Barnsley were aggressive and well-drilled. Bit dodgy at the back but ultimately, whether you like it or not, every player knew what their job was and put the graft in. Just as Wycombe do.I thought Wycombe and Barnsley showed what could be achieved with effective team play and with players effectively carrying out their roles. They looked like proper teams, whilst we still play like a team of individuals.
I don't think either team were stand out teams, but they had a coordinated team approach which ground out results. I thought Wycombe were more in control of the game than Barnsley. Both had stand out players (Wycombe had Mehmeti, and Kane ran it for Barnsley), but the stand out for me was that their teams were greater than the sum of their parts. The only summary can be that those teams are more effectively coached, and have more balanced teams.

Robinson doesn’t really build teams. He generally gathers a load of individuals and then throws them together in the hope that it clicks or someone produces a bit of magic. If he has to play all ten outfield players ever so slightly out of position to shoehorn them all in, that’s what he will do. As I said recently, he’s like a kid who throws all his favourite foods into a mixing bowl. He likes pizza and chips and chocolate, so that’s what he’s putting in the cake.
Whether it be a more robust and aggressive side like Barnsley or Wycombe, or a more slick and polished one like Ipswich, the best teams in this and any other division are exactly that - teams.
Was that SSU, blocks 9-10? There was a hell of a backlog getting in which nearly caused me to s**t my pants. As an aside apologies to anyone who used the toilets after me.Anyone experience the farce of season ticket not being found when scanning through turnstiles last night? Had to go to the ticket office where they printed out tickets to scan.
