Play Off Semi Final 1st Leg Barnsley v Swansea City Match Thoughts

Thought first aif there was nowt in it. Ayew with a quality goal.

2nd aif we put the pressure on but couldn't score unfortunately. Good effort by our boys who gave it their all as always but credit to Swansea too. They're a good, organized outfit who showed plenty of heart and fight. Stood toe to toe with us.

This tie isn't over, not by a long chalk. We proved we can cause them problems but we need to take our chances at the liberty stadium when they come. If we can take our chances then we can edge this tie.

Whatever happens on Setdy we should be proud of our efforts this season.

Al tell thi summat though, we can still get promotion.

Swansea's mind set in the second leg may well be on keeping a clean sheet which could be dangerous. Our away record is reight up theer with the best. Am looking forrad to it.

Remember the 'pointless' 2nd leg at home to Birmingham, where we had a 4 goal lead to defend. That was a weird feeling that night just wanting the game to be played and to be out of the way.

Surely Val will be more disappointed than pleased at how we've maybe failed to do the right things in good areas tonight, and I really hope he has them up for it. They shouldn't need motivation, but I'm sure he will do so. And who knows, maybe we should start practising penalties this week. :p
