I reckon @Konetheming is actually Alan Sm**h. Let it go Alan, we have.

Cheers @bluntphil - now I really have the collywobbles over Drysdale!
Re: Match Day Thread: Barnsley
Kone goes on deadline day, it’s the last game of the season and our strikers are out injured. All of them. We’ve sent a desperate plea out in the ads section of the BFP. Roy Essendoh answers. It’s written in the stars, he comes on with 5 to go. Our other deadline day signing, Aaron Morley, whips a delightful ball into the box. Up goes Roy for the header. His back gives way, we miss the chance, lose the play-offs to Peterborough and then spend another season in L1. Alan Swann is delighted.

@Erroll_Sims sounds like a sound chap. Likewise, I have just taken supper.

@Konetheming as a very wise old Scottish woman once told me "if you have nothing good to say, then say nothing" - a sentiment you might think about?
Re: Match Day Thread: Barnsley
I often wonder things like "who would I choose to score the goal that takes us up?"
I have come around to thinking I would like it to be Hartridge, coming on as an unexpected sub with a few minutes left away to Orient, finding himself in the box back to goal and scoring an overhead kick. That would be something! To say he has had a rough go of it here is an understatement.
Re: Match Day Thread: Barnsley
Low was out for 2 weeks with tonsilitis & played the full game on Saturday, suggest he wasn't 100% match fit & the sports science team have indicated the risk of playing again tonight is too much.
I would suggest that for similar reasons Anders isnt in tonight & why Westergard wasnt in the squad on Saturfday given their lack of recent games.
Hiding somewhere inside Hartridge is a decent L1 defender, he just needs to escape from the medicrity we have seen to date, having said that I would much rather have seen Skura in the squad.
