Thanks, that confirms it so. You think someone would update the Events Calendar. That's not too hard to do when many Fans are booking time off work or Booking Travel to games etc.

To be fair even without those two, two away wins on the bounce with two weeks recovery/training time and games against Peterborough and Doncaster at home is a massive opportunity to build proper momentum, kind of turned into a bit of a decent run for us with Barnsley having a game tm and having had a few shockers, think this will be the stretch that decides Martin’s future

Yes if we can beat Barnsley then we have a few weeks ro rest the players, But also more time for Russell to work with them before the next  couple of games.

If we kept the momentum going we could easily be up around the top of the Table. That would be a huge boost for everyone including the Fans.

0-3 Riis to bag again

 

Wont suddenly have found our defensive ability, I just think Barnsley will be just like MK Dons and offer nothing 

[Leicesterpool]

1-1 draw i think, Riis to score an equaliser in the second half. Leicester may boss the game, but only come away with a point.

Barnsley will bully us and win 2-1

 

however I hope naturally that I am wrong and we win

[Vindaloo FOX]

2-2 

[FoxinNotts]

0-4 Riis hat trick 

 

rest of the league shits themselves

 

 

[filbertway]

If they play the same grim style as Russ then probability says we are more likely to beat them than not. Purely because of our better players. If they wise up then id expect a draw or loss.

[Pliskin]

0-4….. I’m being positive.

Barnsley 2

Leicester City 3 (Coatsworth 2, Walsh)

[Leicesterpool]

Last time i went Barnsley was the 1-1 under Sven. Beckford was making his debut... wasnt amazing i remember took off at half time. Kingy scored the equaliser. Remember fans chanting "4-4-2" to sven.

The other time there under Sven was one of the most one sided wins I’ve seen from us away. We were class and King got the second to wrap it up.

5-0 loss.   5 defensive mistakes. 

 

[HoustonFox]

2-2 and then I get the flu for a week. Basing this purely on the game in 1995 when I was at uni in Sheffield and watched in the pouring rain and didn't get "Fresher's Flu" the fun way.

Meant to be a sensational fry up from Barnsley market cafe.

[Tommy G]

2-0 to Barnsley, Riis cruciate, a new strain of covid develops and an AI supercomputer hacks everyone's savings. 

[Spudulike]

We'll win if we get the luck that we got last week and the Barnsley strikers are as good at finishing as Stockport. Hoping that McCarthy has been practicing where to position himself for free-kicks.

[Pita]

I feel a lot more confident after scoring a few goals let’s hope it continues 1-0 to Leicester

Egg, bacon and sausage torpedo from Oakwell Sandwich shop is the one 👌 

[Foxmeister]

Oakwell was a grim place before the tv money. There wasn’t even a roof on the toilets.

[Muzzy_no7]

2-2.

 

Macfarlane for McaThomas.

[TheGoldenGod]

A rub a dub dub - 1-3 win!

Just spotted this when looking for the parking. Although any idea which Cafe it is as there's two that look like rivals
