A short distance from Barnsley to Sheffield and there, Wednesday have just taken the lead against PNE, who are on City's tail, so that's good for us.

2-0 now! :chant6ez:

I think there’s no doubt that playing Fammy has changed our approach play - his goals return since coming back from injury is great but we were definitely playing better football with just Bobby up front. We really need to work out how to play more effectively with 2 up front. 

Paterson has been way less effective since he returned from that illness but I think it’s also because he has less of a free role since Fammy coming back in.

You could argue we started our downward trend almost a month before Fammy came back in. Then the first couple games were off the bench. So by the time he was back starting we would have had a bad 6-7 game stretch starting with Wolves at AG. Possibly fair assessment about Pato though as has been said he hasn’t been the same since his virus. Basically I do not think there is any one reason we have been poor. There have been numerous reasons that all come up around the same time.

Plymouth three up. Now there`s a Westcountry club who might realistically say they`re `coming for us`.

Rovers are 1 down at home to bottom place Bury, who look dead and buried according to the table, but don't worry, they're still coming g for us as these things take time...

Begins and ends with the one who picks the team and tactics, not the first time is it?

There is always a danger from our corners I feel; unfortunately that danger appears to be towards our goal rather than the oppositions :-(.

For years I've never been able to fathom why, when we have a corner or attacking free kick in and around the box, within a second or two the opposition are breaking on the edge of our penalty area, yet we never seem able to do the same when defending.

There is blame to be had for LJ. Probably the most as he just can’t turn teams around once they go bad. It isn’t all on him but his inability to motivate a down team is worrying. I wouldn’t suggest him leaving but those who think this could run into next season can’t be disregarded if we don’t pick up some form.

Gas losing to the bottom team, Ha Ha!

From their forum; Att: 9,030 (124 Shakes) and then; Ffs massively against the run of play too.

Then reality dawns; Well if it stays like this it's almost certainly the end of the season

Problem is Hegeler is poor in the air for such a big man

Hegeler is too weak.

Don’t necessarily disagree with either, but Wright on a yellow and having a poor game v Moore....a change might be worth it.

Really?

He turned the worst form in our history around into promotion contending form last season.
