Romared Match Thoughts: Barnsley-v-Cheltenham

[POGGYWELL]

Another frustrating game at home but credit to Cheltenham defending well without parking the bus.

Just got to make sure we hold on to that play off place now , one of those days today .

Cheltenham were resolute and it's a good point for them .

JAQ moaning about fans booing at the end. Wait until she realises many were booing her and the Board

If we’d have scored in the first 10 minutes when, on another day, we could have had 2 or 3 goals, I reckon it would have been a comfortable result.

As it turns out, it was a frustrating game.

Connell looks lost without Kane! Muscled off the ball too much today, thank god Kane’s ban is done now.
1 glaring miss by Cole 2nd half, with all the room he had, why oh why did he choose to go with a diving header rather than taking it down and hitting it?
Russell had a good game to be fair, Cheltenham battled really hard and defended excellently, but that is definitely 2 points dropped.
Think that has put paid to any hope of automatics.
I believe we will make the play off’s but as I said after the 5-1 drubbing at home, god help us if we meet Lincoln in them! They are absolutely flying, their 5-0 win today is the first time a 3rd tier club have won 3 games on the bounce by scoring 5 goals or more since Southend in 1954!!!!
They are now 1 point off the play off’s and are looking frightening, where we are looking like we are stumbling over the line.

Surely they can’t keep this up until the end of the season and playoffs though? Reckon it’ll be us and Bolton at Wembley.

The danger is Lincoln could come in to the play offs with considerable momentum .

There's a bit to go yet and they may have peaked too soon .

As for ourselves it's difficult to know exactly where we are at , it's just a very weird season in my opinion .

Ffs!, if ever a 0-0 home draw felt as bad as a defeat, then this is it today.
Very very poor by the sounds of it, and I had that niggling feeling that the ref was even going to gift them a late pen. 😟

Travelled back from Devon for this one. Have to say, like others that Cheltenham worked very hard for their point.
I think that we will hit the play offs, and fail in the semis, as we havent got a killer instinct in us. Its just not there. Ive read some absolute boll Ox on twitter as regards “lets take the positives”…. Posted by idiots… but to be frank, we cant kill a game.
Just did it against Derby, …Just.
Couldn’t kill it off at 2-0 agen Bolton, hung on against Carlisle….and just huffed and puffed today. Not fustrating, just delivering at home what we have all season.
Mediocrity.

As for JAQ……….” shut ya mouth lady”. You think this is our first rodeo love? Get used to it if your here for the long term……. You cant paint the sistine chapel,with a yard brush……

Well Jules you had better tell me to " shut my mouth " as well because I am also baffled as to why fans boo their team they are supposed to support , it was a frustrating performance & as the match went on it was clear that we had run out of ideas & are simply were not good enough on the day to take the points , I believe we had a good goal wrongly chalked off & had enough chances to win the match comfortably but we didn"t & the longer it went we struggled and ultimately failed but I do not get the booing at all , they tried the whole match and thats all I ever ask for , the old saying that you cannot make a silk purse etc comes to mind , we are an average third division side & if fans expect us to win every time we turn out then they are going to be disappointed , it aint going to happen.
