Bit of kick in the bollocks to lose last night, especially in the manner we lost it. Players looked dead on their feet and couple that with a last minute goal to lose it, confidence might have taken a bit of a hit.
Tempting to make some changes to freshen things up, but not sure who and where. Maybe put Turton into midfield at the expense of Jones and bring Baillie in. But I don't think you can drop any of the others, so we might well have to keep it the same. If LDV's injury is semi serious, it may step up our search for a striker.
As for Barnsley, it'll be interesting to see if they make an appointment before Saturday. Doesn't look like it, but things may change over the next 2 days. Also be interesting to see how they react from their hammering at Crawley. Their home record bar the Fleetwood defeat is pretty good of late, having won 4 and drawn 1 of their last 5 league games at Oakwell. Got a number of decent players which could do us some damage, but we have to be somewhat confident of getting chances against a defence that has let in just 5 fewer goals than we have this season.
After losing last night, there is a bit of pressure on this game to get a result as we don't want to be going into a tough run of fixtures after Saturday off the back of 2 defeats. Hopefully we can bounce back and I think we might. 2-2 draw, Ajose and Haber to score.
