Barnsley entertain Bolton hoping to bounce back from a 5 – 3 defeat at Bristol City. Bolton have just won back to back games to go from relegation candidates to the top half of the table.
Get behind em
Barnsley are without Scott Goldbourne and Stephen Dawson while Kelvin Etuhu could make a return to the squad.
Ryan Tunnicliffe is set for a home debut.
If Flicker fails to land a left wing back in time then I am hearing noises that he will play 4-4-2 rather than the 3-5-2 that has served us so well in recent weeks.
I personally would persevere with 3-5-2 regardless but assuming no left wing back is signed the team I am hearing will be:
GK Steele
RB Delap
CB Cranie
CB McNulty
LB Kennedy
RM O`Brien
CM Tunnicliffe
CM Perkins
LM O`Grady
ST Dagnall
ST Harewood
Subs
Alnwick
Scotland
Cywka
Mellis
Etuhu
Foster
Wiseman
First chance to see the Man Utd player for most fans.
Bolton are sweating on Chris Eagles, Tyrone Mears and Mark Davies.
Craig Davies returns to Oakwell for the first time since leaving in January.
I can picture him scoring now. I just hope he doesn`t.
This is Bolton`s first visit to Oakwell for 12 years when Michael Ricketts scored to fire Bolton to victory against the ten men of Barnsley.
Craig Davies scored for Barnsley in the 1 – 1 draw at the Reebok.
The reds last victory against Bolton was in the top flight in August 2007 when Eric Tinkler and Georgi Hristov scored for Wilson`s men.
There hasn`t been a goalless draw between the two sides for over a century.
Also Barnsley are yet to be involved in a 0 – 0 this season.
Let`s have your predictions.
Away at Burnley on Tuesday. Let`s take a decent following to that one and get behind the super reds.
