I like to read up on opposing fans forums before and after playing them so I would like to share with you what I found.
Pre game:
1. Barnsley fans worried about playing us as their record against us is poor - apparently not beaten us away from Oakwell since 1929. Also they seem to think we will be challenging promotion.
2. On the flip side of point 1, they thought they would hold an advantage of having good away support against an empty stadium with a poor attendance of homes fans ( They do understand the situation)
Post Game
1. They all agree that for the first 25 mins we were all over them, overan the midfield, were quick and could have been out of site. 2nd half they were better, had more goalmouth opportunities but admit the last 10 they were hanging on and were lucky.
2. The Young ginger out wide (Haynes) was decent, had the ball alot and whipped in about 10 crosses (only 1 or 2 were good)
3. Thought we were unlucky to concede a goal 3 minutes into stoppage time as the board went up 2 (although apparently when they board goes up say 2 mins, it means minimum 2 mins not precisely)
4. Thought Reda Johnson was the best player, him and Webster a constant threat at set pieces
5. All thought a draw was a fair result and are happy with that due to point 1.
My own thought, How the fuck did Reda miss that header at the end. Should of scored it.
