Boss agrees with red card and rues second half errors
Conor Hourihane thought Mael de Gevigney deserved to be sent off in the 6-2 loss at Birmingham City then, after being proud of his team’s first half display, was frustrated by the second half defending.

Hourihane explains dropping Connell and Phillips
Conor Hourihane says he dropped midfield regulars Luca Connell and Adam Phillips because they have not been ‘up to scratch’ and did not bring Phillips off the bench because he had turned up late to a team meeting. The pair have been almost ever-presents when available since signing in 2022 with Connell captain while Phillips has ten goals for a third successive season. But neither started in Saturday’s 1-1 draw at Wigan Athletic with Connell...

COMMENT: What is left to play for this season?
WITH promotion now not even being discussed by the most diehard positivity merchants, what is there for Barnsley to play for this season? There is always professional pride at stake as well as providing positivity for disgruntled fans. They simply must improve their abject home record, with four out of six games in April at Oakwell. Individual players are also playing for their futures, either at Oakwell or elsewhere, but there is a worry that...
