    Now that we've reached the P.O. Final we need someone to mark the occasion by writing us a cheesey song, as was once the custom for FA Cup finalists. Who can forget The Anfield Rap or Ossie's Dream, for instance?

    Roundsman would be the obvious choice to pen us a tune, if only he frequented the forum anymore.

    I've got a backing track for Depeche Mode's famous 80s hit 'Just Can't Get Enough' - I've re-written the original lyrics and come up with 'The Tykes Are Going Up!'
    I might just threaten to record it an'all, unless you all give some cash to Laura's Cystinosis & Geoff Thomas'leukaemia appeals.

    Where's the guy who did the Stairfoot Roundabout ditty? Perhaps he could come up with summat.

    At least Embrace didn't get to do Huddersfield's song though. ZZZzzzzzz.

    RE: What about asking

    Good idea. They could do Mardy Bum on the b-side & dedicate it to Peter Jackson.

    I think Ads should be commissioned to do one of his raps for the occasion.

    I'm waiting for the kids tea to cook, so here are the (crap) lyrics I've come up with. Yes, I'm always this sad folks.

    When I'm watching Barnsley I go outta my head
    The Tykes are going up (x2)
    Come on Ritchie's army come on you super reds
    The Tykes are going up (x2)
    We're the famous Barnsley FC Yorkshire's number one club
    And it's plain to see we're going up - oh

    The Tykes are going up (x4)

    We've got Disco Devaney Paul Reid & Steve McPhail
    The Tykes are going up (x2)
    With Nick Colgan between the posts this football club can't fail
    The Tykes are going up (x2)
    We're going to Cardiff and there'll be no slip ups
    'Cause BFC are going up - oh

    The Tykes are going up (x4)

    INSTRUMENTAL BREAK

    The Tykes are going up (x8)

    At the Millennium Stadium we'll shoot Swansea down
    The Tykes are going up (x2)
    Our fans will sing all afternoon in praise of their hometown
    The Tykes are going up (x2)
    We'll reach the Championship we'll make our own luck
    'Cause Barns-er-lee are going up - oh

    The Tykes are going up (REPEAT TO FADE)

    What about a Play-Off Final poem?

    Get Ian MacMillan to write one.
