How was he after that ?Quote:

He was fine mate. The size of his head I'm surprised he didn't crack the concrete! In all seriousness he was a lucky boy but he did lose his cp company jacket which had to be cut off in the hospital. :hehe:
A mixture of rebrand and his missus putting her foot down has stopped him going down so regularly now. He coaches at local level at the moment.
Apart from witnessing their nutters fighting with our nutters up and down at Mary Street a few years back , I have a lot of time for teams like Barnsley
Just down the road to the Sheffield clubs , just up the road to the Leeds scum yet they have a hardcore of 10000 that back the club , from a town with a small population
A real working class old school football club , I love it when sides like that beat the likes of Leeds
Hopefully we will beat them tonight but for the rest of the season , like Brentford , I wish them well
Thank god for thatQuote:

Anyone know if it's pay on the gate for us tonight?
Yes it is. Cash only.Quote:

I used to work with a fair few Barnsley fans and they were all Mick McCarthy clones. Down to earth. Plain speaking. No illusions. Liked their football.

I thought he was dead , he was standing in front of me arms spread wide singing or giving it large and just disappeared over the edge.Quote:

Rough lot.
I was amazed when it turned out he was fine.
Didn't they surprise Cardiff a few years back.Quote:

They were met at Cardiff central by the police who put them in that pub opposite the old same bar .......you would have thought 100 fans would be easy for south Wales police to control but they cocked it right upQuote:

I came out of burger king on Westgate Street onto at Mary Street to be greeted by two sets of nutters laying into each other , it was potty
At the ground , where no more than 300 Barnsley fans were gathered , the police still couldn't control them and they nearly broke out of the ground
South Wales police like to think they are experts at crowd control but they were next to useless that day
The story goes that they have one away day every year in rememberance of one of their lads who had passed away. It just happened to fall on Cardiff away that year.
They sound a good old fashioned racist crew , well done on them .Quote:
