Shrews' three-game unbeaten run came to an abrupt halt on a wet night in Yorkshire after a 3-0 defeat at Oakwell.

But the game was not without incidents, as Simon Mather harshly awarded a penalty to the hosts after it struck Carl Winchester on the arm from close range - and Barnsley took the lead from it.

He then failed to award Town one for a foul on Mal Benning and the Tykes went straight up the other end and doubled their lead.

The boss was clearly frustrated by the officiating on the night.
