Barnsley Away 12th Jan

Red card chicksen.

 

Good. Connor Wood will get a chance.

 

Has Hopkin been nobbled....?
Strange team selection and tactics, don't change a winning team, happens time and time again.....

 

Barnsley and Stockport were the two sides I hated and never seemed to beat back in the 70's.

 

Well, the disappointing thing for me today is we started with the wrong formation. If we'd gone in with the formation of the last couple of games I'd be more accepting but as it is it feels a bit disappointing

I hope Hopkin accepts his poor starting formation in the post match interview or I'll be even more disappointed.

 

bbc sport saying no shots on target, this is very poor City.

 

Barnsley 3 - 0 city.

 

About giving NKP that new contract and needing a new CB...

 

Especially when we take that away following.

 

Comprehensively beaten. It's a relegation battle we are in and it's going to take a lot to get out of it.

 

Didnt expect anything today, but a return to the shite served up pre December is not good, A big wake up call today

 

We were fine for 30 mins and then never in it after they scored
Just brush it off. They’re much better than us and for what we need this season, not being able to compete against a side like that isn’t a problem.

Home to Southend next week, who’ve been smashed today too. Ideal game.

Maybe add a player or two this week as well.

No point analysing this game.

 

I said this break would be no good for us. Never mind players resting, came at totally the wrong time and ruined the momentum.

 

I’m not sure about that. I just think we were beaten by a better side.

 

2 attempts at goal the whole game is disgusting and pathetic tactics. It’s seriously bad. It’s Barnsley not Barcelona.

 

Payne cannot perform against top sides.

Chicksen's suspension is a disaster, Wood getting rinsed constantly when he came in does not want to become a theme - new left back required.

Doyle is poor without everyone doing the hard yards for him, much prefer Miller.

Caddis only at right back or right wing back, shows how badly we need to replace Jim O'brien, come on City, back on it against Southend, let's get out of that drop zone and never look back.

 

Will I ever get out this car park behind The North Stand?

 

Very disappointed with today's result and after the way we've been the last few games I'm not prepared to use the 'beaten by a better team excuse'! I've seen what this team can do and expect more. Not saying I expected us to necessarily get anything from today but to offer nothing and get turned over so easily and offer nothing in the second half when we could've had a proper go, is a backwards step.

Sounds like we were handicapped by strange team selection and formation. Hopkin has to take responsibility for that. Mcgowan should never, ever be out on the right either as wingback or fullback when caddis is available. It makes no sense at all.

 

That comment might back fire!
