Season review

Events

League

Barnsley started the league with a 2–2 draw with Sheffield Wednesday. This was followed by defeats by Coventry City and Preston North End, this kept Barnsley in the relegation zone with just one point. Then a 3–1 defeat to Reading put Barnsley to the bottom of the table and subsequently saw manager Simon Davey relieved of his duties. Their first win of the season came when they beat Derby County 3–2. This was followed by a draw against Swansea City, then a 5–2 loss to Queens Park Rangers. They bounced back with a shocking scoreline as they beat West Bromwich Albion 3–1. Ipswich Town and Doncaster Rovers both suffered defeats against the Tykes. This was followed by a defeat against Nottingham Forest and then the Tykes lost 3–2 against Bristol City. They bounced back with a 2–1 win over Peterborough United at London Road this was followed with a 2–2 draw with Sheffield United. They Tykes then beat Cardiff City with Dickinson grabbing an injury time winner. On 28 November the Tykes took on Plymouth Argyle at Home Park, the Tykes were winning 4–1 before referee Gavin Ward called off the game in the 58th minute.[3] Following this unfortunate event the Tykes took on play-off contenders Blackpool who they beat 2–1, becoming the first side to take all three points from Bloomfield Road.[4] This was followed by three consecutive draws against Scunthorpe United, Newcastle United and Crystal Palace.

After their boxing day clash with Preston North End was postponed due to a frozen pitch at Deepdale, the Tykes took on Middlesbrough, who they beat 2–1, with two second half goals. Coventry City beat Barnsley 3–1 on the first league game of the New Year and then a 2–1 loss to Sheffield Wednesday but quickly bouncing back to back Leicester City.
