Yuns goal was superb. Goal of the season contender and completely unexpected.
A good day out all round. Col Donaldson's complete family sat behind us. I thought the lad started shakily but grew in confidence and at the end was playing well. Hes a tall lad, Crouchie mkII.
Sadly I missed the first 2 goals as nipped down to get my lad a pie before the half time rush......
The second was one of those moments of comedy slapstick when the Barnsley defender and Charlie Austin both went for a ball that Doyle passed from the right hand edge of the box for Charlie to run on to. The defender and Steele confused each other and it bobbled in off the defender. From what I saw nobody actually got a good touch on it.
It's a pity you missed the first because it was a swift attack from deep in our own half with several players passing to players who had run into space culminating in Charlie Austin finding himself clear in the box to put it away directly in front of us. The pace of the move showed that we too can do it if we want to.
Is it too much to hope that we will be adventurous again on Friday night? I can't help thinking that Wigan will expect us to play our usual slow passing possession game. Watching them play with purpose and desire makes such a difference.
