    According to legend, the 90's indie band Shed 7 were so called because the drummer allegedly lost his virginity in a shed, aged 7. Perhaps there is a similar story behind this one?

    That site is a lost cause. I've given up on it finally.

    Yes, agree. Makes your eyes hurt. Actually I can't really think of a fans forum I've seen that is as good as ours to read in terms of function and layout etc . I'm sure they are out there, just haven't seen one.

    Shed I occasionally read the Tykesmad board. No issues with ads using my pc with an ad blocker installed. Could be a different matter if viewing via your mobile.

    The adverts are only half of The issue. There's more delusion in there than their is on here. Not tryingbto cause that daft divide again but they're always bbs bashing.

    I've never had any issues with Tykesmad. They're just Barnsley fans like us, who simply use a different message board.

    I have to say this forum is very functional these days, apart from us posters!
    Good work by Gally I believe.

    They seem fine to me though I find it unusable due to adverts and layout.

    It's been a few years since I posted on there, old mate, but when I did, they were extremely welcoming and friendly. As far as I'm concerned they're simply a decent bunch of fellow Barnsley fans posting on another forum. It was on Tykesmad that I first started chatting with Arabian Ian and am proud to be able to call him a friend.

    I find it unusable too. More often than not the posts are very similar to what we see on the BBS so I don't bother with TM any more.

    Hey up Shed. Yes the ads on Footymad are annoying, but it's on every teams board not just Tykesmad.
    If you get used to posting and how to create new threads etc, then it gets much easier of course.

    They all seem decent enough but let's be honest here they don't have me on there so by default it's a far weaker board. Not that I'm big headed or anything
