This game is awful. Not helped either by Sky’s atmosphere less coverage and tediously repetitive commentator.

I know it's only 3 days since the last game, but that followed a 2 week break. We shouldn't be fatigued. Our propensity for a horror show is hard to explain.

Why oh why are we so poor away midweek (Exeter excepted)?

Savage not too far wide from 20 yards. He was stretching to hit it.

Disappointing that’s been our best chance of the half (unless I’ve forgotten something).

No atmosphere. No plan. No desire. Just pleased I didn't travel

Glad that half is over. Luckily we’re only 1-0 down.

Only positive is that the game isn't gone already

Glad it`s only 1-0 at HT, it could have been a whole lot worse.

Wing looks fcuking awful. Misses challenges, caught on the ball and wayward passing.

This is the difference between Posh not really pressing us, and Barnsley pressing us well.

Against Posh we were resolute and broke through their lines easily, taking advantage of their poor back line. Meanwhile, Barnsley are giving us nothing to play with and we can't handle it.

Reminds me of Northern midweek away games of yore. Powder puff southern softies who don’t travel well, combined with a homer ref. We looked like there were signs of life from us in the last 15 minutes or so though. Smith’s showing some nice hold up play and touches. I’d be tempted to bring on Camara for Campbell with half an hour to go.

Hadn’t really noticed Knibbs until the last five minutes and even then that two fouls.

Yeah, not sure it's Campbell's game... more for someone who goes hard and a bit unpredictable. Although that's more Akande than Camara.

Garcia for Dorsett at half-time. Not sure how much difference that will make tbh.
