I live in Barnsley, so just had an idea how to fill my day. Go down to oakwell and watch Barnsley play Rochdale. Just had a look at ticket prices. £26 to watch 3rd division football and that's the cheapest. I forgot how lucky we are to have an owner who wants to fill the ground. Which also brings up the thought of what will happen if Dean does sell up?

The tv money’s not the best on league one. I believe the figure is within the hundreds of thousands rather than the millions in the championships/premier league so they have to get their money in some how.

Better get used to it, some of the Championship admission prices will make us pine for the Premier League next season. Save your money and use it as a downpayment towards next year's trip to Swillsborough.

apart from everyones backward. People say barnsley folk are 10 years behind everyone else as a joke, but they actually are. Best thing i ever did was leave that shithole and back to the motherland that is wakey. Living in barnsley makes you appreciate your own shithole more. I believe ive mentioned it before on here, but my best barnsley moment was two mothers effing and jeffing at each other infront of their young kids over whos carrying whos pasties in the greggs bag. It carried on for a few minutes before tensions peaked and they both broke into tears and smashed each others pasties over the floor. Poor kids have to be raised by them scumbags. No one battered a eyelid apart from me. It was normal. |

Bored in Barnsley? Surely not...... A trip round Barnsley market is enough to keep anyone entertained for an hour or two. Some of the stuff they sell on the butcher's counters there would contravene just about every European law going. Thank God for Brexit. Chitterlings anyone? |

I decided enough was enough when a middle aged woman sped into the school playground on a pink childs petrol quad to pick up her daughter with a young staffie in a rucksack.
Again, no one battered a eyelid.

Which also brings up the thought of what will happen if Dean does sell up? I went to that game as fairly local and thought it would make a nice change to see some goals  (which I did tbf) but I was a little underwhelmed with Barnsley. I thought they would have taken struggling Rochdale to the cleaners but they made heavy weather of it. It did make me realise just how good the atmosphere is at that the JSS these days (on the whole ...). Not much singing from Barnsley just a lot of moaning and groaning with every misplaced pass. Dimitri Cavare (a former trialist of ours) played as a wing back for them, but was a bit hit and miss. Pace to burn but a number of misplaced passes or bad touches. Their best(and most creative) player was Alex Mowatt who our dear neighbours let go a few years back. |

Another thing about barnsley folk is they always wear bluetooth headsets. Theres four blokes from barnsley at work, always can identify them because of the headsets

I remember being charged £25 at Oakwell for our game New Years Eve 2005. Think it was 1-1 an Adnan Ahmed rocket for us.

Hope they do it justice.

For health and safety reasons, they are bulking up and painting a budgie to play the title role. A pigeon is the understudy. |
