    Match Thread - Barnsley (FA Cup)

    Things must be bleak if nobody has set a match thread up before now.

    Currently 0-0 after 23 minutes.

    "Cancelled due to lack of interest!!"

    According to HK in pre-match interview on Radio Nottm - "we are taking the FA Cup seriously and go to Barnsley with a strong team and intend to play "our style of football" - HK deluded?

    Indeed. After Tuesday night, on top of the rest of the season, the lack of interest isn't too surprising.

    Same starting XI but hanging in so far, 2 up front, which is a bonus! If we can go to Barnsley with that formation why not "risk" it at home?

    Even better news - England are 15 - 0 up against the All Blacks!

    OK so far.

    I don't mind the team selection. Turley over Tootle will make us stronger, literally. A voice on the pitch too.
    We know what Brisly can/can't do. No problem seeing him back for this away game.
    We also know Milsom and Hewitt can do an OK job. That was the pairing that saved us in 2016/17 after all.
    Dennis has to be given a chance, a run of games to find form (if it's there - but we have to know). This is it.
    My main issue is Thomas - a waste of a shirt IMO

    The team is just about all we have, given the injuries - no doubt about that.

    There is a footballer in Thomas but we just haven't seen much of it yet in my view! He has a decent touch, (Tues night apart, when he was pretty poor all night tbh), and he is strong on the ball, prepared to go forward and occasionally shows a touch of creativity. He certainly hasn't been on the same wavelength as his team mates as yet & some of his long range passes and crosses appear to be speculative and inaccurate, at best. He needs to have an injection of confidence and do something special to start winning over his critics, otherwise he may disappear down the pan like too many others in recent years.

    A much better half than expected but the stats are still slightly worrying as Barnsley have had 11 shots and 5 on target. We have not had 1 at shot at all on target. lets hope for the same in the second half and get a replay.

    Correction, 2 - 0!

    Game over, I'm afraid.
