    There's a Hot Air hand dryer in the WestStandBogs; it wasn't there last time I went in,plus the vegetation has been removed.

    It was clear as day above the west stand.

    Looks very tacky.

    Very basic and looks like something that is temporary. Don’t think it is though.

    Looks bloody awful and indicative of other stuff that’s happened in the past . Hopefully we’ll be dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century with the new owners . Still got fingers crossed for an appointment to get some excitement going and some of the stay aways back to Oakwell UTR

    That’s proper barnsley that

    We really are an embarrassment when it comes to improvements

    Scoreboard makes me laugh every time I look at it .

    I'm still astonished that we paid a professional company to refurbish the gantry and that is the best they could do. It looks 10 times worse after repairs than it did before. It looks a disgrace.

    £100 says the stand is gone within 18 months

    Is that it? :) I thought from the OP it might have been painted in big letters along the back of the roof

    That’s proper shabby... I love it, Barnsley FC trying hard but always just getting it slightly wrong!

    Eeeee, where are we again? I've forgotten...... Ah yes, thank goodness for that naff looking sign on the shonky gantry. We'll never have temporary amnesia of our whereabouts again.
