pete 318 Posted March 11, 2021 Barnsley fail to keep their winning run of 7 wins going after being held by lowly Derby. Have they become the latest of those teams hovering around the Play Offs to seemingly finding the rigours of a long Championship season too much. Swansea, Reading, and Bournemouth finding their form deserting them towards seasons end. This has not seemed to have affected City, whose entire squad are now fit and firing but a reverse at the very poor Sheff Wed may show the the exertions are taking its toil. Certainly there have been no signs of late and hopefully a week without a fixture will be beneficial before another run of 3 fixture in 6 days. 3 wins against some of the divisions under achievers should rubber stamp our promotion push onto champions. Not interested in second place whatever a few others would take. How many points clear will we be in 3 games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
All the Germans 1,070 Posted March 11, 2021 Everybody drops points. Everybody. If you offered 22 points out of 24 to any team, with any run of fixtures, in any league, they'd take it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you'll be very interested in second place if there's a danger we'll finish third 😀 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly, it's like the people who still claim Spurs 'bottled' the Premier League in 2015/16. They failed to win any of their final four, but were never in a strong position to actually win the league and did very well in the second half of the season to at least put pressure on Leicester.

cambridgeshire canary 6,514 Posted March 12, 2021 Honestly quite like them, hopefuly they at least make the playoffs. Would not mind seeing Barnsley make it back to the top after so long away from it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pete 318 Posted March 12, 2021 A poor display against Derby after 7 impressive results and performances indicative of fall of in form. Could be the end of the dream for Barnsley will see tomorrow if Tykes falling off and contenders are all losing form at a vital time. Latest results will be interesting Barnsley have one of the uppermost teams to play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
