South Welsh derby has been incredible currently 3-2 after 65 minutes just been an amazing match and atmosphere so far

Fox Sports 2. 6.45am - Tykes vs. Dee Daa Scum.

WATCH IT!!!

ANDERSON DA SILVA!!!! 1-0 to the Tykes, 53rd minute. ;D

Can hear the crowd from the house clear as day from across town - stunning.

 

[serious14]

1-1, penalty to the Dee Daa Scum.

 

[serious14]

2-2 at fulltime.  2 penalties to United.

Cheating f*ckers.

 

[bulldogmariner]

Both teams are struggling serious. I think the championship might be a two horse race between toon and west brom.

Why weren't you there supporting the locals ?

Oh yes I remember.

No arguments here - as long as Barnsley finish 21st or higher my housemates don't care. ;D


Arab - couldn't get tickets.

Complaint withdrawn.

P.S. They jacked up the price from 19 to 26 quid for that game... do many teams here do that for their "bigger" games??

We used to do it for the bigger European games (when we were good that is)......but the club ran a voucher system where if you were at the 2 or 3 home games before the big game you got a discount bringing the price back to normal.

Only the part timers and glory hunters had to fork out extra.

Pretty well all of them, Fulham do - fleece the glory hunters but Season ticket holders get it at usual price

 

[serious14]

Funnily enough United don't - hence my confusion.

Still, there was a full house at Oakwell (minus the required segregation) so I guess people don't mind??

Newcastle back on top after beating Preston NE 1-0 at Deepdale through Kevin Nolen on 74 mins.

I was hoping preston would win so West Brom stayed on top.

It looks like Newcastle and West Brom might start running away with it if they can keep their form going, both of them have been sitting top two almost all season and a gap is starting to appear as well

 

[serious14]

Barnsley's game at Plymouth abandoned in the 58th minute when they were leading 4-1 due to torrential rain. 

Much to the chagrin of my housemates, they won't count and the game will have to be replayed.

 

[bulldogmariner]

3-0 over Swansea means we still lead the league over West Brom by two points and 3rd is 8 points behind. Come on Xmas and more points. Maybe a cup run and secure promotion.

 

[bulldogmariner]

Newcastle lead 2-0 away at Coventry 10 mins left. Ameobi and Ranger the goal scorers. 7 straight wins first time since 1996 when we beat in that run Man Utd 5-0 in that famous game at ST James Park.

Newcastle now 7 points clear close to the half way point. Could we finally win a title?

Bring on Barnsley on Saturday.
