The last two weeks have been a disaster, and you could easily claim that Cardiff isn't the place to go after that. We have just lost three in a row, and those losses have come in a spiritless fassion. Even worse has been our away form, where we have lost 5 of the last 6. It [...]

Yesterday's match report was my 100th post, and after that amount of time it's time this blog evolved a bit. I'm working on moving to a new domain, which is now under beta testing. I've moved the entire archive over, and all posts are now going up on there too. The address is www.barnsleyblog.com. Within a few [.

3 losses in a row, our worst run since Davey. That's awful. Although I don't actually think this was so, so bad; certainly nothing on Plymouth. It wasn't good enough though. The player mostly managed to do their individual jobs respectably. The problem came in the teamwork. No two players were on the same wavelength, [.

I said Reading was the worst we played under Robins, but it is no longer. This was truly useless. On Friday I said that nothing less than a win would acceptable, and I stand by that. Perhaps I didn't even go far enough. As the 4-1 early this season and also Plymouths league record show, [...]

Expectation, it can be quite the burden. The question is, how much of it can we reasonably lumber our squad with now. This isn't really a conscious or logical decision, it's just from the heart. Despite the result on Tuesday, I, and Mark Robins, have, on reflection, come to take positives. We did things right against a good [.

As Stephen Franks said on the Facebook Page, we can't win 'em all. I'm prepared to call off day on this one. There was certainly a lot wrong with us, but nothing too elementary. In general it was just a collection of very average individual performances, pitted against a Boro team who were immensely different to the team we [.

www.soccerpro.com Soccerpro.com is a website selling excellent football gear, ranging from cheap deals to highest quality, from professional gear to casual wear, from boots to T-Shirts. Whatever you want they've got it, it's well worth a look here. With the World Cup dominating my life this summer, I'm gunna assume it's kind of important to you as well.

"An Emil Hallfredsson strike fired Barnsley to a second straight win as the Tykes closed in on a play-off spot." So reads the opening line of the BBC's usually conservative match report from Saturday. Sounds good, doesn't it? The belief around Oakwell that Mark Robins is not just content with survival is rapidly becoming tangible.

We went into this game sporting, predictably, the same set up and personnel who thrashed Preston's hide. It didn't work out that way again because Watford came to try and end a losing run, and they closed us down quickly in their half, something Preston didn't do. But, we did all we needed to do [.

So, following on from the performance of the season on Tuesday, we have the hugely important mission of carrying that forwards and to try and build up some good form. We did so much right against Preston, the main thing of which was the attack. Robins said "It was not about a formation. It was all about the [.

Darren Moore could quite feasibly be described as an enigma at the moment. He has a towering and even terrifying presence, partnered with what must feel like decades of experience. He is a megalith, holding the record number of promotions to the Premiership. There can be no doubt that Davey was right to sign him at face value, [.

How the hell we can lose 4 out of 5, and then produce the best performance of the season I'll never know for sure, but hell, do we care? It was electrifying from the Reds last night, and we deserved every goal we got, and more. Later I will say differently, but the real Man of [...]

It's definitely a welcome distraction, however. Normally we are as active as Dimitar Berbatov, but not today. Following rumour, report and now confirmation by Burnley, we have signed 20 Year old Striker Jay Rodriguez on a 1 month loan. He is known as a great prospect, and would be in and around the first team at Turfmoor, however he [.

It's kind of hard to express quite how disappointing this was after the improvements against Leicester. It was back to how we were against Wednesday, just this time the defence couldn't play either. We never put two passes together, and we didn't even try many long balls, we just lost it again and again.
