I'd be looking at a couple of Barnsley players after that. Yep, it was, and always will be their cup final, but their movement and speed gave our old timers a reality check. I thought we were poor tactically and didn't follow the pattern of previous away days i.e. bore the sh*te out of the game in the first half, then slowly apply the pressure. We were far too open, meaning the misplaced passes, and there were many, immediately caused us problems. Coyle did look weak, but he was so exposed. Not a disaster in terms of the League, but a reality check which could have seen us concede half a dozen. Poor tactics though for once, but may be a good thing for Monk too?
