We've got a taxi booked for 3 PM Tomorrow afternoon and heading to Wakefield city centre for a few drinks before our Grand Final against Toulouse so I won't be tuning in tomorrow .
Hopefully we can play better than of late and come back with at least a point .
The Blackpool game last season was the last straw for the very unfortunate Neil Collins , could history repeat itself with a very poor performance and a drubbing ? .
Can't see owt changing in terms of performance. Blacky in their honeymoon period under Bruce. It all points to another defeat
I can see us wiping floor with them if we're fit enough and more direct. Then I woke up.Quote:

Regarding us, I really hope these 2 weeks of training will help our performance levels. Blackpool away today and then Charlton Tuesday, if they’re 2 more poor, nothing performances then Clarke will be under serious pressure I would’ve thought.
The Tinker Man has struck again , lets hope todays tinkering does the business but my first thoughts are not positive , hopefully my muted reaction to the team is unfounded and we romp home.
Yep - the potential is there to do just that.Quote:

One striker.
Supported by Dunn and Phillips coming from midfield.
Hopefully Connell and Russell will be playing side by side anchoring the middle.
I can see Yoga getting some game time today.
No Cosgrove or Tap Watter today.
Which ain’t a bad thing.
Again showing the weakness we have up front.
I was hoping we might have seen the return of Watters , he started the season reasonably well and you could see his confidence was returning, he is arguably our quickest player and we sadly lack pace , we have no out and out striker on the bench and our options look limited , he hasn"t played since getting injured at Crawley but no info or updates on his recovery or current situation are forthcoming , why am I not surprised !!
1st Half
I haven’t a clue what I’ve just watched.
Most of the time - especially defending - we look like a bottom 6 team.
But then there’s glimpses when we knock the ball about like a top 2 team.
Winning 0-1.
But the score line could have been owt.

Potential is clearly there - but Barnsley still looking very unorganised.
Uninspiring.
Good in patches, bad in patches but somebody has got to get that defense organized.
I thought O,Keefe had a decent game but the player I can’t weigh up is Earl, I’m not say I don’t like the lad but he’s neither a central defender or a wing back?
At time he can look good when he’s on a charge, a bit like kitchen but then can remain static when defending
