Tykes vs Trees (and it's live on SKY 7:45)

[Jamo]

Well, we've one win in 10 despite not really playing that poorly at all this season, Forest have just come off a crappy run and have their star striker back and firing so I'm wary of this game.

We've a decent record vs Forest at Oakwell and we've won our last 5 on Sky, but we've not won at Oakwell since August. I reckon we'll draw again.

Wonder what time the morons will start the "scab" chants . . .

Forest fans seem very confident after a quick scan of their main forum. I'm not surprised though, one win and your best striker fit and scoring is all it takes for any game to seem winnable again. Hopefully that optimism is misplaced.

Edit: "It's only Barnsley"

Still struggling to process what happened last night. How does a team dominate a game start to finish and lose 5-2? I think Forest only got into our half a dozen times in the entire game ffs, they set up for a point and yet came away with 3 and 5 goals to boot, which speaks volumes about how much we contributed to our own downfall.
Never come away from a game thinking we've deliberately thrown it but I don't know what to think after witnessing the goals we conceded.

I thought Forest looked a poor side, disjointed, constant long balls up to Velios and shaky at the back. I'm worried by the fact most teams we face at Oakwell will be better than Forest, and if we can't get the points (let alone get hammered) in a game like last night then what are we going to do for the rest of the season? First time I've had doubts about whether we'll stay up.
