Romared Match Thoughts Barnsley v Lincoln City

We scored some great goals today and I?m really pleased for Watters as I wasn?t sure he had that in him. I was sure, as he was carrying the ball forward, that he?d pass out wide. Cracking run and finish.

DKD?s goal was class too. What a player.

Yet again we made it nervy for ourselves though with shoddy defending.

Lembikisa scares me to death defensively. I hope Gent is back for Tuesday.

3 wins in a row so only positives from me and after fearing the season was over after the Huddersfield defeat, I?m now starting to wonder. I still don?t think we are good enough to go up, especially defensively but at least it looks like we should be fighting for something for the rest of the season.

I hope all the critics of Connel were at Oakwell today where it was crystal clear that he was badly missed , not one of our midfield today were ball winners, they might occasionally make decent contributions with decent passes but when we want to break up play or simply compete in the tackle they are all hapless , its a job that Connell does week in and week out and today we badly missed him , as Lincoln pressed late in the game they just strolled through the middle with ease and we simply invited pressure on , none of them can do the job he does , in the end we just got away with it , thank goodness there wasn"t another 5 minutes more to play otherwise I fear we would have blown it .

Some decent finishing from us and some diabolical defending .

The story of the season in my opinion , when the chances go begging we are always going to concede which is why we are having the up and down season we've had .

The question is can the finishing hold up until game 46 ?
