One of the biggest challenges tomorrow will be finding a shirt that doesn't have the name of an insolvent company on it. Are Viglen still in business? Someone I know still wears his Woolwich shirt.
Barnsley are clearly a well organised side who have got to fourth in the table. They are going around saying that that it's a big test against an ex Premiership side, clearly hoping for a draw and bragging rights. All this overlooks the fact that very few of the Premiership players are left.
Their main man seems to have been Brian Howard who's nabbed 6 goals from midfield this season, plus 4 yellow cards already. Unlike the Chicago Addick, I don't remember any really great games against the Tykes, although I seem to remember Sweaty Balmer getting sent off for a second yellow in one encounter.
Sam's suspension clearly poses a few problems, plus the fact that Ambrose may be injured. Given that we need width, it would seem to be a case for the recall of the sulky but talented Jerome Thomas. Matt Holland looked well up for it at Coventry and could be back in if Ambrose is not available. At any rate he should be available on the bench for a rough and tumble game.
It should be a 2-1 win for the Addicks, but I feel a bit uneasy about this one and it could be a 1-1 draw.

I think the 3-0 Mendonca Hatrick game was pretty memorable in the Championship winning season.

But not that memorable as the score was 3-1!
