Time to up the ante on the chasing duo of Swindon and MK Dons, we play three times before Swindon play their majestic double header against MKD and then Bristol City, points on the board are priceless at this time of the season.
Barnsley on Saturday are on the kind of run Peterborough were on when they played us last Tueday. New manager syndrome still working for them unbeaten in five and have rocketed up the table to be just outside the play off zone, which is exactly were they should be. Johnson proving he is going to be a decent manager which will in time mean he will manage Yeovil. Not be easy at Oakwell but we have sold close to 2500 tickets so we will be making plenty of noise, will be there so match summary possibly Saturday night.

Hate to say it but there is part of me that wants the dingles to win this one!! It all stems form my loathing of the Blunts and if Barnsley win it could really put pressure on a team already struggling. But I really do want you guys to get an auto spot, so a tough one for me!!!

3000 away following for North End's annual gentry day to honour all those who have left this world in the past 12 months, saw the yellows and Barnsley share the points in a good hard contest that ended up with the right result.
The Oakwell ground is one of those traditional football stadiums that I always enjoy going to, never lost there and today kept up that record. Three large stands plus the old main stand which has been there since 1543 just after Dickie Bird was born. First of all I saw something unique today two professional footballer's caught short during the pre match warm up, I'll not name them but is emptying your bladder in view of some football fans a sackable offence.
As for the game Barnsley started quickly hit a post and had a shot that hit the side netting whilst Garner forced Davis to pull off a first class save. Barnsley went close again before North End started to up the pace and it wasn't long before the visitors took the lead, neat work down the left hand side led to Garner firing home from close range. North End had chances notably Clarke but he failed to t the target when well place.
Barnsley were dominant in the second half as North End struggled to get into the game Stewart missed a sitter and a header went over the top from close range. North End were being exposed down the flanks and sure enough 11 minutes from time Iberhre headed home from close range after a good cross from Holgate. Thought the home side would press on for victory but North End finally and belatedly woke up and spent the last few minutes going for the winner, a Wright header was easily saved by Davis and with it went the two extra points.
No complaints about the result good point in my view.
Barnsley 1 Preston North End 1 Att 12000

Yes, that is a good point away at one of the form teams, puts another point between you and Swindon and keeps the unbeaten run going!!

Had a mini bus full of PNE in our local prematch, all in good spirits and wearing bowler hats for some strange reason.
