Marshall F/H 6 S/H 7 he didn't really have much to do either half made a couple of good claims and dove on the ball to run down the clock a bit but fumbled a simple looking cross to conceed a corner in the first half
Camara F/H 7 S/H 7 as i say below had a good game, he kept the very lively campbell rice quiet and ploughed forward, the only real downer of his game today was him being a bit slow cos he's getting on
Shacks F/H 4 S/H 6 had a poor game, played a lot of suicidal balls in the first have and his hoofing and decisions didnt imporve too much in the second half
Doc F/H 5 S/H 7 like shacks gave the ball alway a lot but also made one or two great challenges that stopped the tykes big striker from going through, he's improved a lot recently but today we saw the old doc who gave away a lot of freekicks
Sammy F/H 4 S/H 7 he gave the ball away a lot and is clearly a confidence player, in the second half after the first goal he ploughed forward had the tykes winger in his pocket and gave the ball away far less
Bertrand F/H 5 S/H 6 had a good game considering its his debut, he's young and i'm sure will improve but he is very very weaky, he was being muscled off the ball by people who would have been intimidated by IED! he has a good touch but needs to develop his composure whcih im sure he will
Fotheringham F/H 4 S/H 8 he was momumental in the second half, scored a lucky goal but it was like he'd suddenly remembered how to pass and showed a bit of passion that you need in centre mid
Rusty F/H 3 S/H 7 he was woeful in the first half like most of the team, second wasmiles better got himself into goalscoring positions and maybe should have done better with his header and shot, played much better but again when he tires he tends to lunge and i can see him getting sent off soon
Croft F/H 4 S/H 6 i don;t think he had a good game, he looks overweight and only interested when going forward, he often passeed to a man who was marked out of the game or turned away from the ball when he had dispatched it, also until the second half he didn't take on his man once he always looks to cut inside to evans needs a word in his ear i think
Evans F/H 6 S/H 8 my MoTM he looked class and i'm sure will be in years to come, ran at the tykes causing them all kind of headahces, scored a good goal was the only one in the side who dared to shoot in the f/h and won a fair share of headers too!
Dion f/h 4 s/h 8 out of sorts in the first half gave the ball away a lot yes gave the ball away!!! but seemed to regain his composure in the sceond half and was back to shaming the younger members of the squad as he has all season!
Subs
Hucks - came on caused barnsley a lot of problems never really got out of second gear because he didnt need to, he didn't do much but why skin all the players you can when barnsley had given up to run the risk of getting hacked down and being injured?
Curerton - again didn't do too much but didn't need too he got into some good postions when i didn't think he would
Jarvis - was on for about a 5 minutes and ran as you'd expect his socks off! i have always liked him because he is skillful on the ball, didn't do much would have to see him for longer to comment on whether he can do a job for us!
finally the ref
dont know who he was but he was woeful for both sides, he booked camara when he meant to book bertrand let play carry on following blatent fould and pulled players up for nothing challenges
OTBC see you all at bury
