    The condescending plastic fans from the glory clubs asking me what division little old Barnsley are in and being fake surprised at the response.

    Sunderland had them this year.

    Neither Norwich or Sheffield United did.

    It’s not overly fair - but it’s not insurmountable. If we did get back to the premier league at any point, and ended up being relegated, we wouldn’t turn them down.

    Know what you mean about the view. This was the straight ahead view from my seat when we played Fulham a couple of years ago. [​IMG]

    Having to join the FA cup in round 3.
    So used to getting knocked out in the first round and then concentrating on the league.

    Often hesr people commend Fulham for keeping the old stands, that picture shows why for me it's better to build new.

    I appreciate they can be a pain for anyone travelling a distance, but am I alone in liking midweek games? One of the things I disliked about L1 was the lack of them. Tuesday night games under the Oakwell floodlights have always felt a bit special to me.

    TBF.. Barnsley is normally the ..Go too game.. For other clubs to slash their prices, cos we are, like it or not, a lot of clubs lowest gate of the season..

    Fun fact..

    Parachute payments are a bit wrong.
    Unless it's us, then it's perfectly fine...:)

    I must have been sitting just behind you as I had a similar view but about 8 rows back - in fact I think I might even have been a few seats further left. It was extremely annoying
    but not as annoying as the ref giving a penalty to them just because he can

    So at least seven teams will be getting them next season, possibly nine. Bloody annoying.

    But I take the point made by @troff that they're not the be all and end all. I guess we'll just have to do what Sheff Utd did.
