Weirdly gyo took the ball. Looked at waghorn, dropped the ball and then picked it up again. It was odd. Waggy was giving him a bit of a keep calm talk as well. And i don't think our fans helped everyone ran to the front and started pounding the advertising boards.

Waghorn felt the need to clear up the shite on twitter. Fair play to him.

 

[robbiekeane]

Yeah that was the point

Yes…I’m agreeing with you…

 

[Skybluefaz]

Yes…I’m agreeing with you…

Apologies, thanks for the mansplain.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

I take it back on Waghorn...didn't know he was a set piece man. Apologies

 

[Skyblueweeman]

FFS, don't conflate elite and renowned in this instance. I'm not saying he's Roberto Carlos. Simply that I thought he was known for taking set pieces.

Genuinely wasn't aware...not a name I've heard about set plays before but fair dos 🤝🏻

Matched about 8 Barnsley birds on bumble. Not sure how many had their own teeth though

I blame the management it should have been made clear who was on penaltys before the game even started

It’s rather embarrassing that a player has to come out and defend himself after his third game for the club

Team captain told Waghorn to take it.

It is. Sometimes I think it's best to stay quiet. Social media is full of morons spouting shite but if you react to it, it becomes a story.

 

[Greggs]

Can’t stand losing to shit like that. Nobody to blame but City though.

We may have won it if we were a better team with better players.......

 

[Greggs]

Weirdly optimistic after that. Absolute gutter to lose 1-0 to a shite goal coming out of nowhere but with us hitting the bar, one-off the line and a penalty, we’d have 3 on another day and dominated Barnsley with 63% for most of the game.

We play that like we’ll be ok this season.
Just need to be more clinical in front of goal.

We'll be ok but we'll lose most matches that we should have won. Yes, very weird and optimistic

We played well but lost, it happens. We got a chance to get a draw and it was saved, it happens. We had chances, but didn’t test their keeper enough, they had one real chance and took it. It happens.
Just like the blame game on here where there are masters of hindsight, experts at every topic under the Sky Blue Sky and some worrying individuals who hope that their own players don’t score or play well.
There were some nasty characters amongst our support today, disappointing day.

There usually is. I don’t go to as many away games as I’d like due to some bad experiences with our own fans that have been very off-putting.

 

[Johhny Blue]

Sounds like we played well and players like Maatsen, and Hamer looked a lot better than last week. We will win games this season in the same manor we lost today

We only play in that Manor once a season

Players tweeting stuff like Waghorn and Dabo did after the second game of the season isn’t particularly encouraging really

Not when the fans and players have always had such a good connection,I don’t think it was negative and he said the fans were great etc

Basically you're crying and wanking at the same time?

Bit worrying that they read stuff On social media because it could really affect them mentally because there are a lot of idiots on there

Why? Shows the players have each other’s backs.

Too many of our fans have been talking absolute nonsense in relation to the penalty taker. Had Waghorn stepped and missed, people would be calling for Gyo to take the pen.

We missed a penalty, it is what it is. Overall, we played v well today and it’s a performance to build on.

Lets all put up matching avatars for the poor blokes, it must be so difficult for them......

I don’t think they should be reading it/reacting to it at all.

In fairness it’s probably Twitter and Waghorn probably being tagged in stuff

It’s pathetic. Always feels like we have a higher proportion of idiotic fans than other clubs.

Not a great endorsement or welcoming for Waghorn or Gyokeres if he was getting direct abuse from the stands after missing the pen.

Would advise any sane person to stay off Twitter. Even Barnsley fans on there saying the ref was against them, FFS.

Didn't hear any direct abuse from the stands to be fair, although I was away from the main crowd a bit. Was certainly clapped as he went down the tunnel.

I don’t think Robins will be best pleased with this. Club has quite a strong social media policy. I get he wants to protect himself and teammates from the annoying stuff being posted but you shouldn’t react. Dabo should know better.

We’ve played 2 league games and for some reason so called fans are creating agro with our new signings and they’re reacting.

This isn’t great.

People are asking why Waghorn didn’t take it he’s a set piece taker as we’ve seen and his record of 20 from 24 shows he is decent at pens as we seen against wolves,his posts are not negative or bad I don’t think and he’s said the fans were great.

 

[larry_david]

Barnsley received 8 yellow cards...EIGHT and their fans are adamant o hare is a diver. Incredible

They commented on Barnsley's tactics with O'Hare on the EFL show it was that ridiculous.

No it’s not. Even I think he should have taken it. It’s some of the below the belt comments from so called fans. Seriously I don’t get the character assassinations of our new players by some. It’s as if some want them to fail.

 

[larry_david]

Thought us away lot were okay today. There's morons at every game from every team and a few that were too pissed up to realise there was a minute silence but that was it. Some northern oik in the Barnsley end managed to break up the silence abruptly. Second half cov lot didn't stop singing, it was quite inspiring really

Nah mark,he dived for every single yellow card ya know. All 8 of em
