    Eyup everyone, i've not been on here for about 9/10 weeks now cause i've had some stuff going on but its all sorted now. I also went on holiday. Corfu. Sunny. Hot. Was nice.

    Anyway, what have I missed on here??

    Here Ponty Bar might be opening? Take over? where did this come from?

    Will someone fill me in a bit to get me up to speed. Just the important things form the last 10 week please!

    Thanks in advance!

    Gally organised for a meeting between fans and Don Rowing. At the meeting amongst other things that popped up was the issue of a bar in the ponty end. Don said that he had applied for a licence to open up a bar and that the police wouldn't be objecting against the application so at the moment it is all down to the council and whether they say yes or no. The bars in the rest of the ground now sell acorn brewery by the way.
    It was also asked for a new scoreboard and originally Don said that fans should try to raise money for it themselves but then the original one broke down (temporarily) and so the club announced that they were planning on buying their own which I believe was said to be installed this month though I imagine it will be like the solar panels and never happen.

    One of the papers claimed that we have had a couple of offers for take-overs, one from an italian consortium and one from another foreign lot (dont know who though). Don Rowing confirmed that we have had enquiries but no offers.

    We've been playing really well but when we go a goal behind we don't change our tactics and find it hard to break down teams so we still aren't gaining many points when we go a goal down but are hammering teams when we go in front.

    Oh yeah, and everybody thinks Barnsley town centre is ****, apart from Madmark who is trying to claim the town centre in a Braveheart-style.

    Ballax to your spelling knowledge, ST, it doesn't stop Hemsworth in his tracks!

    Everything i wanted to know really!!

    Glad they've finally got Acorn going in ground. They should have Ponty bar open, no good reason not to. Open it up a few hours before game with sky sports ont telly and they'd make a killing.

    Good news about the screen, we need a new one. It always annoys me going t well and having to look at that. Supposed to be a championship team not pub league.

    Iv'e been watching highlights when i can, and been asking my dad what every games been like. Loved the battering we gave Birmingham.

    Thanks for catching me up!

    Sky sports on telly. That's something I forgot to mention. Don said that as part of the plans for a new scoreboard and bar in the ponty end the TV screens in the concourses would go to be replaced by larger plasma's showing sky sports before every game and he was looking into showing live sky sports games on the scoreboard as well before games.

    Thats good news, should definitely happen.

    If we're not careful we might actually be a club in the 21st century!!
