The Tykes Thread

[thebish]

We'll get banjo'd three nowt and Dougie's stock will come crashing down to earth under a crescendo of boo's. a thousand 'just in case' "I told you so Dickheads" banners will appear from nowhere and all the vibes from the players will go from "yeah everything's great" to "aye, he's shit.. None of it were my responsibility".

You know what? feck it, I'm not bothering. I'm staying in 'Spoons drinking my £1.90 500ml bottle of Baltika. Pretending I've missed the bus. Which has gone up to £3!!! RETURN!!! THAT'S FECKIN' DOUBLE!

Boooooooooooooooo

Happy Christmas!

It's nice not to be worrying about the defence as much and thinking of our multiple attacking options instead

Really? I still am.

Well I am as well but not as much as I used too

[officer_dibble]

We'll shit em

(to quantify I cant recall ever seeing us beat baaaaarnsley)

[Lord Kangana]

I was interested enough to check that out dibble, as I recall the same. We beat them twice in 2000/01, and before that once in '95. I'm pretty sure I was at least 2 (if not all three) of those games. But my memory only stretches to the 3-0 dicking at Oakwell in 94/95 and the 1-1 in which Gudni scored.

Bastards have a psychological hold over us!

[David Lee's Hair]

Depressing place Oakwell... always reminds me of the ground in ID when they get pelted with darts...

[Lord Kangana]

Thats actually whatever they're calling Valley Parade, isn't it?

[David Lee's Hair]

I though it was actually Millmoor... Meh, it all South Yorkshire, whish is all a shit hole at the end of the day

Aye.. Walking past that Van Damme stand or whatever it's called is a real throwback

[PC1978]

I am going for 2-1 to the whites. Nervy start and then nicking one, going in 1-0 up at half time before scoring another one. Then defending for about half an hour chewing my fingernails down to the elbow as they nick one back and lay siege to our goal!

Don't fail me crystal ball!! We need 3 points!

So far Dougie has come up against 3 of the biggest clubs in the division, all of them promotion contenders. Barnsley are relegation contenders. Our squad is leaps and bounds ahead of theres, its at the Bok, we are unbeaten under Dougie.

This is the sort of game that we should feel confident about. There is absolutely no reason why we shouldn't win comfortably tomorrow, Dougie will know that and I really hope the players do too.

[thebish]

if we don't win this - Eddie and Garty should sack Dougie before it is too late...

[boltonboris]

Gartside should go now, because he's a shit tactician and fails to motivate the cheerleaders.

[Harry Genshaw]

We do seem to have a pretty poor record against this lot. Weren't they the first team to ever beat us on a Sunday? Last game of the season about 1994 (lost 2-3). I have a vague memory of Richie Sneekes scoring in a 2-1 win at Burnden but I might have dreamt it.

That 0-3 at Oakwell was a dreadful day but not quite as bad as when we lost 1-3 in the FA cup. I spent 10 minutes under the arm of a copper while he punched me in the face several times

Right. already replied to this once (or so i thought).

95 - in the league?
went to oakwell in 96 when we shit the league, 1-1 with the ref scoring for them! and went the year after, beardsley played his first game for us? we lost i think

remember the gudni goal

and thats about it

the yorkshire bastards

Yes we should win be dont expect us to hammer them. They will keep it tight and being in a corner will scrap.Their last 4 aways have been 0 1, theyre not getting pasted inspite of their position . They are low on confidence but their problem is scoring. Infact they just took someone on loan to try and sort it.
