Re: Match Day Thread: Barnsley
Absolutely tremendous. Great to see and well done to everyone tonight. Management team, players and fans all superb. What a night!
Re: Match Day Thread: Barnsley
10 goals ahead of the nearest scorers, Birmingham and Peterborough. Incredible stuff!
Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
Agreed. Sam is a top fella but best kept where he's strongest.
Your take on the thin line between highs and lows over the last game is really spot on. In the delight at the winner it's very easy to forget how a mad 2min of pen and red card absolutely opened that game up.
Re: Match Day Thread: Barnsley
I've just rewatched the highlights on Youtube and its got me all pumped up for the day!
One thing I've noticed, that I didn't see last night, how quickly Bradley appeared at the referee's side for the Red Card to try and influence the decision but then goes to hug / console the player?
Re: Match Day Thread: Barnsley
Excellent summary. This forum has been a shade toxic of late but we can all agree that we follow a very special football club irrespective of who is in charge on the touch line or in the boardroom. The Wycombe spirit will always shine through.
Re: Match Day Thread: Barnsley
I don't like the whole "welcoming" idea either. Makes us seem soft. I'd prefer "Wycombe line up in full armour at the battlements, pouring scorn and ridicule upon the approaching Barnsley hordes."
Re: Match Day Thread: Barnsley
Last night is why we go to football. Our players gave EVERYTHING for that result and the celebrations to a man showed to everyone that regardless of recent changes there is a certain magic that is running through this club and this squad that won't go away.
Kone's goals will always get the headlines but he is the talisman of so much more. He battles for everything. He inspires. 12 months ago we had just signed him. 12 months.
Barnsley can spin whatever they want out of last night but we absolutely battered them. Their clumsy number 5 was all excited when he blocked a shot in the box near the end. That was their mentality, hanging on by a thread and thinking they were heroes for doing so. We destroyed them. We were irresistible.
With five days to go until that window closes we will see a defining period for our club.
