Re: Three positives from the Barnsley game ?
We won...that's it really, though of course winning is the aim of the game, so it's a big 'it'.

Re: Three positives from the Barnsley game ?
1) There is a team worse than us
2) I couldn't get a stream to watch it so didn't have to watch a god awful game between a mediocre team and a team that is heading towards the same level of mediocrity
3) The performance was so poor that it should not have given anyone reason to seriously believe PH should be the manager next season.

I thought we played well in patches, enjoyed the game as always and there were a number of encouraging plus points ...

Re: Three positives from the Barnsley game ?
Taken from the comments on here - even those with the rose tinted spectacles are hardly over enthused with the performance. I watched the highlights, which admittedly aren't necessarily a true reflection of the game, and they showed Barnsley looking as likely as us to take the points from chances created.
Re: Three positives from the Barnsley game ?
Once again you blame the coach, we can't even have a positive topic without you dragging it down.....jeez give me strength !weasel wrote: ↑Sun Apr 22, 2018 12:53 pm 1) There is a team worse than us

Who put this frigging squad together ?
Alioski & Ekuban almost tripped up ar*e over tit by stepping on the ball as they tried to control it (twice each)
Alioski ran the ball into touch as mis-controlled a simple pass to him
Ekuban ran around like a headless chicken again
Pennington & Alioski collided for the same ball when it was easier to clear which cost us on the first goal
Saiz was too busy spitting his dummy out
Our attacking players created very little apart from the goals in an open game with oceans of space
Phillips spent too much time fiddling about with his new haircut
Worst set of players I've witnessed at ER in decades

Re: Three positives from the Barnsley game ?
I would say it was like a poor Christiansen performance. As everyone but Heckingbottom seems to know, 4-2-3-1 with Alioski, Saiz and Hernandez as the 3 in behind suits us best. Our most dangerous players got into dangerous positions and that was enough to make the difference against a struggling team.weasel wrote: ↑Sun Apr 22, 2018 2:40 pm Taken from the comments on here - even those with the rose tinted spectacles are hardly over enthused with the performance.

Barnsley looked better than when we played them at Oakwell. I wonder what's changed.

Alioski, Saiz & Ekuban have all been found out in the championship, all three shone that day, they haven't been that good since the 25th November 2017
Barnsley are still just as poor & are likely to be relegated.
Ironically enough the tykes were never in the bottom three under Hecky
