No change! Dire to watch! It's as if Collins is wearing a Devaney skin suit!

[Russ_1982]

Barnsley are playing right into their hands. Kane and Cole looking they are running in mud. No overlapping runs when the ball is played out wide.

[perkytyke]

Surely the tactical talk should have been play around them, Cole and McAtee are 2 of the quickest L1 strikers, but no! Loft balls in to the man mountain at the back?

[POGGYWELL]

Not much in it they’ve put two good balls in and scored once and that was when Cole was still off the pitch. The ref should have allowed him back on.
Crying out for some good wide play against their CBs and Cadden just not up to it.

[perkytyke]

I was hoping Devaney would change things a bit, but it's exactly the same as Collins.....

[EthelRed]

It was offside too

[perkytyke]

Defensive sh1te yet again...

[perkytyke]

25 mins to go, no shots on target yet Devaney changes nothing!
