I've had a chat tonight with Ben Mansford..

    In an attempt to find out where we're at heading into the new season, to get the official line on Matt and Adam's departure from Barnsley Player, to ask plenty of questions about season ticket sales, matchday pricing, police bills, Mason Holgate, Ross Turnbull, Kyle Dempsey, Dale Jennings, the trialists, the upcoming friendlies, the new kits, Lee Johnson etc etc.

    I'll stick it on the blog, unlikely to get it uploaded tonight but will be on there at some point tomorrow evening at the latest, all being well.

    Before I'm given the usual "up his arse" stick, I'd like to point out that Ben's reply to my very angry and expletive ridden email (regards Matt Bailey) suggested a chat via the phone which I wasn't keen on initially. I don't do phone calls, with anyone much. And I'm still pissed off about that decision as well as a few other things. However, I reckoned folk on here and other places might fancy hearing what he had to say, so I'm merely playing pretend journo and trying to relay back news and information for other supporters. I made that clear to him before we spoke, that I would only be interested in doing it if I could share what was said. But I am up his arse n all. :)

    Cheers.

    As I said, unlikely to be up tonight, but I'm trying. So on that note, I'll piss off now and do my best.

    Ridiculous how our Chief Ex will phone up a fan to get his message out via his blog but doesn't make any statements officially via the clubs website etc.


    No disrespect to you Whitey , and fair play for sharing it.

    Been reading your blogs for a while and decided to finally sign up. The constant negativity from tykesmad gave me another reason to. I feel angry and bemused about the Matt Bailey sacking and having my say on here can maybe somehow help. Having read his interviews I'm still holding out some hope of the club seeing sense and doing a u-turn. Look forward to reading your blog when you get it up. cheers.

    Not as polished as I'd normally aim for, and will have forgot stuff rushing it, but here tha guz...

    I'm not going into whether he should be talking to me, whether I'm a tease, lovely person etc etc. I know why I do stuff that I do, would hope most folk do n all.

    Cheers.
