Nice, I don't remember Rochdale playing quite like that last season. I recall Keith Hill being very complimentary about our football last year.
Never mind Barnsley, let's hope we have got the players to make it work this season!

The team they are playing have stripes on the back of their shirts.

"Culture" and "Barnsley" - two words not often seen in the same sentence.
What does it say about British football, and the mentality therein.
It almost appears, esp lower down the league, but sadly not exclusively, the sudden realisation that you keep the ball until you've drawn enough of the opposition forward, then hit them with a quick break when you have the defence stretched, is a good thing.
It's a shame 2022 World Cup is in Qatar, we might have actually been able to compete beyond the quarters.
Sadly someone will work out that long ball, 1 lump up from will be the way to go, in those conditions.

Good video but we've come to expect football like that in the Gus era. We've truly been spoilt and hopefully Barnsley will do well playing their way and take some points off our top half competition. Can see them being safe themselves despite no star players if they stick to that style of footie. Thought Hill was a good manager last season and Barnslet like Burnley will do well because of their good British managers. Can't say that in the Prem too often these days but good to see in the Championship.

That's something that my children say frequently! (Both of whom are Barnsley born and bred, but are Albion fans).
