@tommy_lufc Perhaps the kindest thing you can say about that is our players faced a seriously stern challenge today & somehow came away with the vital three points. One to forget in every other sense. Arguably our worst performance under Bielsa. #lufc

@OlliB23 One. More. Singular. Point. A big win, that. Massive. GET IN BOYS #LUFC

@liamcollins97 Fair play to Barnsley. Easily our toughest game of the season. Don’t deserve to be where they are in the league. #lufc #barnsleyfc

@PBY88 It wasn’t pretty but it’s within touching distance. 16 years. There’s light at the end of the tunnel. #LUFC

@GOULG A win is a win sometimes they are lucky, we were poor, Barnsley were class, Leeds of old would have lost this game. BUT this team won! We're nearly there LEEDS LEEDS LEEDS #lufc

@SamL9455 My heart can’t take much more of this. GET IN!!! #lufc

@ianharte23 Another step in the right direction for @LUFC not pretty but who cares 3pts in the bag.

@EastStandUpper Hey, it's the points that count... and we've just beaten our highest ever three-points-for-a-win total. Nearly there. #lufc

@RITGK A win is a win but my god, that was a tough game to get the points.
