    I found the M'Voto thing funny myself when did we lose the ability to laugh at ourselves and our team? I used to write pieces called Oakwell Zeros about the less than great Barnsley players. Did one on Julian Broddle then met him afterwards said it had pride of place in his football stuff and that it was hilarious. Footballers are just like us able to laugh at themselves. Big Jean probably realises he's not Lionel Messi.

    Aye, I'm fully aware now that it was perhaps the wrong time to do it. But the reaction was 90% positive so I could have just ignored the negativity and admitted nowt.

    But I'm nice like that. I shan't be creating owt of that nature again. I'll stick to the positive and uplifting videos I'm used to making.

    Thanks for putting your opinion over without being abusive though.

    As I explained last night, someone on twitter referred to the Jimmy Dean classic 'Big Bad John' and because we were all discussing how bad he'd been, I thought I'd try making a quick video. It's only a video showing photos of him, and him getting done for/away with his clumsiness. The last bit of Danny looking on aghast, then Flicker smiling, knowingly, I thought it was amusing.

    Many others agreed, a fair few didn't.



    But I've seen posts on here from a few of those who don't like the video, tearing into Big John and his displays this season. So I'm a bit confused by that. I also put a video together last season of Keith's reign going tits up, nobody had issues with that. I think (I know) some like to be offended.


    That's my honest opinion ^^^^

    But, I'm not a total lovely person and so I've taken the negative comments (the constructive ones) into consideration and won't share owt of this nature on here in future. Can't say fairer than that. But I won't be apologising or owt.

    Not having a go like, I just think there's a difference between a piss take article in a fanzine for example, and something put out for the world to see that shows us mocking one of our own - in his 1st season with us where he's struggled to adapt.

    Not partic bothered, live and let live and all that

    Aye, I can see that view. As I said yesterday, I think second sometimes. We live and learn.
