Let’s see if we can perform better in the second Half, Charlie nearly had a brace.
Mowatt very dangerous for visitors

I didn't think so. Barnsley are the better team but their first was our poor defending, their second came from a foul that never was (all be it a superbly taken free kick) |

No we havnt been that bad Harry, Charlie hit the woodwork early on , Dykes missed with his chance which is pretty standard. We can still turn it around but Barnsley on a good run of wins at the minute. |

No Willock no Adomah screaming out for a sub here, when will he add one of these on the pitch ....

Took him until 70 minutes but finally a treble change, should have happened a long time ago that.
Field added with the 2 mentioned above.

Lol, MW will never be any good for this club. Oh well back to normal, without Charlie we would be bottom 3.

Best team won, different class to us.
Big game for us next Tuesday we need 3 points in that one for sure, not feeling confident at Bristol City at all on last two showings.

Disappointing game and result. I had seen Barnsley play on TV recently and their game plan is simple but effective - high press and the ball over the top + set pieces.
Seems like we knew that and yet got suckered into it from the first minute and never learnt anything in the 90.
It is daft to think that you can beat Barnsley playing their game - maybe we were forced into it, but we never tried to defuse thei high energy, we just tried to match it.
Seny was not at his best last night, but he is excused more than one off game. I think he will be disappointed to have at least not got closer, for the goals and the third went through his legs, but by then it was one on one because Cameron completely lost his man, looking so leggy.
Cameron is the captain, but he looks to me to be a liabilty, cruelly exposed for pace, asnd yet pushing the line up high.
If the team were not carrying out the coaching staff's instructions, he is the best one to enforce it on the pitch rather than back in the dressing room when we have lost.
Poor Dykes, I feel for him. Does so much right but then...... I can see him being a success, but whether or not it will be with QPR remains s to be seen.
Bonne as an option hardly thrills me and I guees Kelman is still raw.
Wallace struggled, but Kane had a better game going forward, but still stands off when defending. If we are not going to play Field in midfield, I would not mind seeing him at left back - because apparently he can play there.
But Barnsley are on a roll, and sadly we fell for their tactics.
We are still not far from a decent side. We need Austin, Johannsen and Field to stay next season.
We need to part with Cameron and Wallace and find decent replacements - including a captain who leads.

Barnsley do the double over us ( there first double this season ) for the second consecutive season 🙄
Still say it, Wycombe is a game we need to win.
Whilst Rotherham’s fixture list looks tough over the next two weeks with Brentford away Saturday and Luton away Tuesday and Watford also this month, they have what they would feel a very good run of fixtures in April , including Wycombe at Home, QPR at home, Birmingham at home, Huddersfield away etc.
I still think we need three more wins at least to be on the safe side.
We looked a very tired team against Preston and Birmingham and Barnsley both deserved the points, no complaints from me, we didn’t deserve much out the last three games.
Still think M Warburton brought on subs far to late yesterday, he needed to change earlier, poor coaching anyone could see it, still we move on to Saturday.

Players looked very tired the guy from Hull should start Saturday as Cameron is a spent force at the minute but it comes down to finding the net and chsrlie is doing it single handedly we would have been in shit by know I hope he stays fit until we are safe I agree with harr about poor coaching but that's been the case for a good few years now

Well I'm glad it is just the manager that is the problem - nothing to do with the players not doing their jobs or the squad being over stretched or maybe some other teams being better than us. Charlie scored last night and on Saturday but we did not get any points from either game and we are not in the bottom 3. Logic tells me something there but what influence does logic have on supporters who love to hate any manager we have. Still enough of that - we may win on Saturday and silence will return. |

The whole team seemed pretty spent in the last 2 games. Maybe we should accept that Saturday will be a step too far and really shake things up for one game. Start Kelman and Willock and Bettache , the new man from Hull and a few others l could suggest to give the others a rest. Who knows they might do better than we think. This is the first time I have looked forward to an international break but then again I expect Dykes will be run into the ground by Scotland Bonne probably flying off somewhere but any rest would be welcome at the moment.

Still think M Warburton brought on subs far to late yesterday, he needed to change earlier, poor coaching anyone could see it, still we move on to Saturday. Warburton and his substitutions is an interesting debate. Yesterday we saw Barnsley execute their plan to perfection. Three sets of fresh legs to run at our back three as we pushed forward (and looked leggy). The third goal was one of the poorest we have conceded all season. I am not a manager basher - and do not want change. This board knows that. However, I agree that his substitutions are often late and not always effective - but how could they reasonably be? Earlier in the season, his bench was pretty weak and so late substitutions were more understandable. But fans have received an education from the manager this last week about the science behind fitness and how certain players are struggling. So I was surprised that yesterday he did not make more changes or earlier substitutions - there are some decent options on the bench now. But also, as we were losing out tactically, why not some lengthy injuries to slow the game and get fresh instructions out there, or substitutions that arrive with instructions to change things. Perhaps, I am being harsh, but once the third goal went in, it was game over and Barnsley managed the game out. We did not worry them and it was a long passive second half. But I will keep the faith. |

Now it seems MW blaming social media for Dykes etc being crepe, you could not make it up. So why play him ?

Anyone with logic can see we have ridden our luck for a few games recently. |

Dykes is certainly becoming the new Connor Washington, his goal scoring record is actually probably worse than Washingtons now? 2 Million was quite a chunk of our budget, so far with not much return ..... |

In Scotland he was mainly an assist merchant. His actual goal scoring record wasn’t great, but his link up play and assist potential was superb. It’s a bit like Roberto Firmino, although obviously not in his class, a lot of his work gets under appreciated by many because what he does doesn’t show up on the scoresheets. I’m not expecting goals from him, because that’s not really my understanding of what his game is really all about. But, he plays an important part in the side. The slide was to be expected, though. This happens to most Championship sides, they put good mini runs together then lose a few on the bounce. But that nice run should see us safe now. I genuinely cannot see us going down this season, so anything else is a bonus for me. Roll on next season, when hopefully the fans can safely return to matches in their thousands and it will be a completely different ball game. |

Anyone with logic can see we have ridden our luck for a few games recently. Only 55 years - give it another 9 and you will catch up with me. My logic tells me we had a run where we tightened the defence (when the manager changed formation) and have hit a wall as the 3 game a week routine has taken it's toll, especially on our older players. Luck when we win, bad manager when we lose? Not logical. |
