    The big problem for us was that we were put into administration by MM, which made us vulnerable to blackmail by the likes of the Efl and Gibson, they were able to take their actions by threatening the very existence of the club by holding up the sale.
    To be fair regarding the amortisation charge, it would have eventually caught up with us in later years anyway, unless they coincided with the relaxations because of covid.

    Poor formation for an away day breakfast plate imho; sausage should be between the defensive beans and rotated to prevent the midfield scrambled egg being encumbered with defensive duties. Egg should be deployed further forward and ahead of the hash-browns, with the mushrooms out wide but given license to cut in and play as a number 10. Really don’t believe the combination of fried & scrambled eggs ever works; they’re just too similar. At least one of the slices of toast should’ve been given a starting position to give added structure to the team, supporting the bacon which appears somewhat isolated and awkwardly placed in the way of the hashbrowns. Bizarrely part of the beans seem to currently be deployed as a wing-back…I can’t see that working at all. I’m liking the look of the fresh orange on the bench but not sure it’s got enough in the tank to last the whole 90 minutes. Just don’t think that line-up is going to cut the mustard today. Really need the lad Brown on there too, just to spice it up a bit.

    Hopefully, this will dent Barnsley's confidence a little. Lately, everything has been going their way, but tonight they were 2 up and cruising, then fell back to earth.
    Every Barnsley fan and player will be feeling gutted atm.

    Not necessarily, only time will tell.
    A draw allows Barnsley one more possible point than us, but a defeat puts us level with them, with us currently been ahead on goal difference.
    A Bolton win also allows Bolton to finish on the same points as Derby, assuming Derby win their match between Bolton, with us being ahead on goal difference.
    Barnsley being on a better run at the moment, also need to be pulled back, whereas Bolton even with a good victory behind them, have got some challenging games to finish off the season.

    Are we likely to want to continue to go ahead with the Northampton game if possible, rather than have to squeeze in an unnecessary midweek match before the end of the season?
    NML is staying, Washington and Nyambe probably won't be fit anyway.
    However, Collins and Fozzy will likely have recovered for any rearranged game.

    Shared a journalist’s tweet about this in the away tickets thread earlier but figure it’s worth sharing here too, especially with this coming direct from the man himself. NML has asked to be stood down from the upcoming internationals so he can focus on Derby and the run in, top man 👏

    Hopefully, we've got 4 key players to add to the mix in the next couple of weeks, Gayle getting up to speed, CBT likewise, with Fozzy and Waggy returning. All good players who should add something to the squad.

    With the new tv deal, there will be only 7x 3pm games  in the championship and a total of 19 games out of 24 in Lg1 and Lg2 combined.
    Whichever league we're in, there will be quite a few none 3pm matches.

    Actually I can! 😂 Infact it's too big! When I was younger I used to like wearing tops that were baggy and oversized. Now I'm, ahem, more mature, it just looks ridiculous! To be fair it probably looked ridiculous back then too, but I guess I thought I looked the bee's knees!

    I thought that all 3 goals were down to poor defending.
    Bradley had just shown what he could do, only seconds before, but was given too much space.
    Their first was a fortunate break from Adam's tackle, but then we stood off their players allowing an easy cross, followed by a weak free headed clearance which just happened to fall perfectly for their striker, if it had gone 3ft to the left or right, he would have had to control it and get closed down. It was a good strike though, I was right in line with it and as soon as the ball sat up for him, I feared the worse.
    For their second goal, we were very sloppy in the lead up to the corner.

    I find this hard to believe. 
    Out of a crowd of 24,719, you're claiming that there were only 14k home fans with probably 1,000 or so away fans, so that works out at around 18k empty seats or giveaways? It also means that around 6-7,000 season ticket holders didn't turn up for the game.
    The club have previously stated that ticket holder no shows are no longer included in match day attendances.
