Barnsley manager Keith Hill saw his team subside to a gruelling 2-1 defeat at Watford and admitted it was a bad advert for football and more like rugby.
Hill joked that he was tempted to leave after just 10 minutes, but he stayed on to see John Eustace score twice and Barnsley manage only a late consolation from substitute Scott Golbourne.
Hill had no complaints about the result, but said of the game: "It was very boring and not great to watch. I thought about getting on the motorway to avoid the storm after 10 minutes. That's how bad it was.
"I like my football but that resembled rugby. We lost the game and maybe that was down to Watford. They stopped us playing and have plenty of quality.
"We controlled possession but didn't do enough of it.
"Their first goal summed up the game. There was an air shot, two mis-hits and then the goal. The cardinal sin was to concede the second goal like we did."
