He went onto say that even whilst SToke City FC had departed the pitch and boarding the team bus, it would be 'unlikely' that Barnsley FC would put together any 'meaningful, penetrating moves'

He added ' we see no point in rearranging this fixture yet again as all we are doing is delaying and denying Stoke City 3 crucial points in their push for a play off place, the sooner they get these added, the better as far as we are concerned'. They felt it was in the 'best interests' of Barnsley FC to have a 0-1 defeat chalked on their card as the likelihood is the scoreline 'would be greater'
