Just an immense win.

Bloody shame Godden did make it 3 with that open goal at the end but doesn’t take the gloss from another fighting performance from all.

So good to see the players playing for the shirt-in direct contrast to a few games this season.

Agree with nearly all that except McCallum was great last game too

This.

 

[ccfc92]

Absolutely fucking delighted ⚽️

 

[covcity4life]

Two clean sheets on the bounce as well, SOLID

With Wilson and da costa

Wilson especially can people stop pretending he is horrendous

 

[Greggs]

@Barnsley hiya

 

[Barnsley]

@Barnsley, shame you didn’t turn up today. Was expecting a really powerful performance and us to be played off the pitch. Shame Dike didn’t play, any ideas why?

We did turn up, you just did a job on us, it happens, in both games against us this season Robins as changed from his normal game plan, system, tactics, and it’s worked a treat. He got it spot on.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Reckon there is a good chance we finish 15th-16th now tbh. Feel like we’ll be more motivated to do well over the last 5 games than the likes of Bristol City, Preston and Forest.

 

[Grendel]

They’ll need one, if we get in the playoffs, the team we play won’t play like you did today, the problem we’ve got is the next 3 games as them 3 will play like you did.

As I say I’m not one to berate teams with a winning format but that was real Jurassic park football - high in the air, physical and brutal. No finesse or even an attempt at it. You’ll be found out next season - relegation battle again I think

'play like you did' - you mean 'better', it's okay you can say it

Yes I know our tactics aren't everyone simultaneously run towards the ball though...

Sorry for playing like we did. Tactics all wrong .

Hello 16th my old friend...

 

[Magwitch1]

I think it’s going to be out the price range but I think we will sell Hamer and see what funds we have - it is interesting as if you could avoid one of James and Ostigard I’d break the bank on Ostigard every time

Matty James is immense having him in the team has saved us from division one.

They’ll change their manager and half of their team again, it’s unsustainable

They ran about a lot and the manager smiled

 

[Danceswithhorses]

Huge result. Egg on my face right now... since Bristol MR has got it spot on. Proven me wrong, never been so happy to be wrong.

Well played City and well played Robins

It takes guts to admit you were wrong previously, so kudos.
Now we're all aboard the Championship bus 21/22

 

[Grendel]

I was just surprised how bad they were

We played the same as we did against the Rotherham. All the best for the rest of the season though. Genuinely hope you lot go up now.

Yeah they’ll be great in the premier league

 

[Evo1883]

Boring Mark has got it spot on tactically, as expected.
we’ll roll the dice at half time make two subs and see what that brings, but it’s not going to be a pretty second half football wise but it was never going to be, was always going to pan out like this.

The boring bastard took 4 points off you this season

Good luck for the playoffs regardless

PUSB

 

[hill83]

Will they have time to upgrade their ground to champions league standards?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

We have competed in nearly every game thisnseason. Maybe 2 or 3 we didn't

But instead of be encouraged our fans moaned and got angry about losing tonfine margins rather than be proud how well we stepped up tonchampionshop from the very get go.

People get angry because they care, they might not express it in the right way but the sentiment is well placed

 

[Northants Sky Blue]

Get in!! Wasn't expecting 3 today - sent the neighbours dogs bananas shouting after both goals.

Hoping we can see a bit of Reid etc now

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Yeah they’ll be great in the premier league

Great to watch when they are challenging for the title

 

[procdoc]

I was just surprised how bad they were

One dimensional, no plan B, just lumped it towards the big lad up top. Might have been an off day for them but I thought they were gash

 

[shmmeee]

Thought Barnsley looked much better earlier in the season ironically.

Was that the so called great Barnsley team? a bunch of cloggers who hoof it long to a a carthorse?

Revolutionary

I did say this to you earlier!

 

[Grendel]

Great to watch when they are challenging for the title

I guess the likes of Man City will play more open football which means they can high press and show their amazing possession skills

 

[covcity4life]

People get angry because they care, they might not express it in the right way but the sentiment is well placed

That's an excuse when you are a kid tbh

As an adult need to take a step back. I mean I told you were wrong but youndont listen. Now look covixty4life proven right again....yet again

It was but the correct tactics on that pitch trying to play pretty football on that would have been suicide.

 

[robbiethemole]

I make that 99 years unbeaten at Coventry by Barnsley now

Same. They played decent football in the last time I thought.
