Barnsley game 19:09 - Apr 7 with 2231 viewsBent_double

I know, I know, one game at a time, eh!

But this game has now gone from being a potentially tricky one a couple of weeks ago, when they were on fire, having just beaten their local rivals to something else entirely.

Now, it looks like top 2 is out of reach for them, so they will just be sorting out their position for the play-offs, maybe even resting a couple of key players, with the added bonus of helping keep SW out of top 2 if they lose to us.

We can win there anyway, but it looks like that phantom call-up for Leigh has helped us more than we could have hoped!

Poll: So what do we think will happen with MM and the Aston Villa job?

Spot on. There was always that possibility, and it is playing out as we had hoped.

I feel that Barnsley are out of the picture - they need to win all their games and hope we lose 2 and draw 1. That's a big ask.

Peterborough could be the tricky one. They will want to beat us regardless.

Particularly given that we're not going to lose again this season.

I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.

I agree, we should beat them, but they'll treat it like a derby match.

I'm still looking for revenge for that 7-1 humiliation all those years ago, grrrr.

If they win all the rest of theirs, that's a defeat for us already.

If they are out of the automatic picture by the time we play, they could still see it as an opportunity to get a win against a side they could then face in the play-offs. I think the only difference in playing them when we will is the form each side is on. Form does not always predict results anyway.

Barnsley had 20 shots to Burton’s 7, they had nine on target and scored only one while Burton had two shots on target and scored them both. That’s not very good but they will be a different prospect at Oakwell I suspect so I’m not discounting them just yet.

Not discounting them for top 2? They're effectively 7 points behind us, with just 7 games left, I would say they need to win all those games to be in with a shout - which they won't do - so it's play-offs for them.

Next 3 games are the important ones, if we can max out on those the last 4, which look tougher, will look after themselves.

Yup, this one is the one that has me bum twitching, just because they'll go with all out sh*thousery to foil us. Now though, I think we could mix it if needed. Sam and Massimo are a match for anyone, and we've got a lot more streetwise in the last month or so. I say let them(and me) worry, the lads will take care of business.
