NorthCarolinaYellow 197 Posted January 23, 2021 Absolutely f*cking criminal. Shameful. Worst I've seen in years from a "big" EFL side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dylanisabaddog 4,729 Posted January 23, 2021 The one at Cheltenham is significantly better. No excuse for it really Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 3,598 Posted January 23, 2021 Not the best but I’m sure Barnsley themselves would prefer it to be better; it’s the same for both sides and it didn’t really impact our play that much -Tettey and Rupp were poor, Onel, Dowell and Placheta not a lot better.

I think it made a massive difference. Controlling the ball is so much harder when it's bobbling around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surfer 1,547 Posted January 23, 2021 Didn't seem to affect Barnsley's ability to instantly control the ball, put in pin point crosses and generally win every challenge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Making Plans 929 Posted January 23, 2021 I guess the simpleton's view is that the vast amount of rain they had in those parts this week was nothing to do with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kick it off 1,927 Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) Don't think we can blame the pitch for our performance. I think the groundsmen did their best with it - it had clearly been freshly ploughed at least. Edited January 23, 2021 by kick it off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
