    Just donated £30k to Children's Heart Foundation.

    Still a b*stard for wearing a Sheff Utd tie at Bramall Lane though eh?

    Fair play to him.... A lot of folk dont like him for whatever reason. Michael Parkinson gets some stick as well which ive never understood every time ive heard either talk about barnsley its always been in a good way.

    I'll acknowledge that this is a brilliant gesture.

    Though I'm still allowed to think he is a tit.

    One can't fault him for donating so much to charity, he's been extremely generous. Yes he does seem to expect a photo and a handshake when doing so but hey ho.

    Oh for goodness sake, if the guy wants to do this and is able to do it then give him the good grace to actually do it.
    What a set of old farts and curmudgeons we have on here.

    Couldn’t he just have stashed it away offshore if it was for tax reasons - he gave 120k to YCCC as well for the new player’s balcony

    I really don't understand the animosity towards Dicky, he's been a Reds fan since he was a nipper, played for the youth teams but wasn't quite good or big enough so opted for Cricket. He's always lived in Barnsley and has never to my knowledge said a bad word about it. Give him a break.

    Aye and pays for his own season ticket as well - seen him at Oakwell on a number of occasions, not just the glamourous games.
