Boro Punished 'Too Slow Out Of The Blocks' Tykes

Barnsley boss Mark Robins admitted his side were too slow coming out of the blocks, and Boro punished them for it. Mark Robins: "We've given them two goals - simple as that. "The second half was a little bit of a transformation. "We've created a few more chances, got the ball into the penalty area more and really could have taken something from the game. "I'll accept that it's probably been a bit of a feature with us - and too much of a feature - that we perform better in the second half than we do in the first half. "Sometimes it doesn't cost us, here it has. You've got to play for 90 minutes and not give teams goals. "It's just elementary things that we're not doing right and if we do them right we end up being more successful than we were here. "I thought the second goal was offside. "It looked two yards offside to me from where I was stood but I've not seen a replay. "You've got to be careful what you say about officials and I'll not say too much, but we certainly didn't get any decisions, no doubt about that."
