I’ll be honest I had forgotten that Ben Marshall existed till I saw the previous page. At least he looks like he’s using his talents again.

Joao came off the bench today and got an assist and a goal - he’s a nuisance from the bench

So the villa game is the 16th - is that at Ewood? Hopefully a few people will get down for it

As someone who’s had doubts about the manager at times this is great to hear: "For me he's a really good man manager, he speaks to his players all the time and lets us know what's going on and you can also go to him with any problems," said Armstrong. "On the training pitch he's very intense and, like I said, it seems to be working. He gets his thoughts across well and we all understand what he wants. Everyone is working hard for him and the fans. "Obviously I know him from Coventry but I've come here and I'm playing games and doing well and that's the main thing. A lot of people forget I'm still only 21, so the amount of games I've already played is massive for me going forward in my career.

Nice to see young Barnes get on - would be lovely to have another local lad come through

Didn’t he play a pre season game out of nowhere a couple years back?

Currently 3-0 up away at Wolves, Tomlinson, Magloire and Nuttall with the goals Will go 7 points clear with 3 to play although a I think the team in second has 4 left

He’s actually only had one good season to date I’d take him though it would be unlikely to happen

Rhodes being moved on from Wednesday according to Nixon, could see Bolton going for him finally completing a Nixon wet dream! Mahoney again an unused sub for Barnsley at weekend as was Lowe at Brum whilst Akpan is starting for Burton. All three of the above teams in or around the drop zone

That’s the last we’ll see of him as a Rovers player but you have to worry for his career now. For some players pace and hamstrings just don’t go well together

Is he the lad with the terrible socks?

Brilliant finishing recently, deadly with his pace to get him into the positions

Recently watched Damned (ch4 comedy) and Save Me (sky atlantic drama) For me both british tv at its best, taking painful subjects and making them hilarious or enthralling!

Some promising emerging talents in the youths tonight: Byrne, Travis, Caddis, Downing, Bell, Antonsson, Tomlinson, Whittingham, Conway, Samuel, Nuttall

For Lucas Joao - who scored! Mahoney an unused sub again for Barnsley, genuinely think a season here would have done him a lot of good

The club has been pretty consitent with pricing, still representing good value even in this league. Although Chaddy has said he'd pay £2.3k for a season ticket so I'm glad fans don't have an input!

If he has any impact at all I'll be pleased - tough injury to come back from and may take him a while. Hopefully we don't need him in the play offs!

A 1-0 win today with Okera Simmonds with the goal. Based on no personal knowledge and purely on stats the lad seems a talent

Seems like Te-Jay joined the academy in 2016 but in 2017 was playing for Rochdale youth Mariner is a Samoan that apparently left Brisbane Strikers in May 2016 to come here So not sure if either are still here edit - seems Mariner never joined due to visa issues

It's ridiculous - I love it!

Suppose it's not seen as cost effective for a youth game Wonder what the upstairs / downstairs business was about Every game my the floor around my seat at the back of the JW lower is drenched, I always wonder if it's water from the roof or it's hosed down, it will be a death trap Sunday if it's the same!

That really is a good interview, well said Tony

No Mahoney in the Barnsley squad tonight, is he injured?

Rudy has been getting some stick recently from Boro fans - he's just bagged a couple tonight Delighted for him

I think that part of the offside rule is fine myself, if a cross comes in and just before it's struck a striker has flung himself anticipating a diving header and his top half beyond the last defender and he scores I think it's right that he's offside even though his feet may not be. For me the Mata goal was rightfully ruled out but the messy way it was proven needs work. Out of curiosity you say you aren't a fan of any technology in football, how about goal line technology?
