    There's much true in what Fi wrote.
    I'm a fairly regular listener and there's no getting away from the fact that they do seem to be revelling in the gossip and rumour mongering or "Goings on ", at Oakwell as they refer to it !
    Maybe our hearts are biased (of course they are!) , but hearing them gloat and be overcome with glee at what they perceive as mass unrest from Barnsley fans , to them it's a journalist's dream!
    They're loving it!
    Hard to believe that they'd be using the same gleeful tone in their voices if it was one of the Sheffield clubs!
    As for people posting on this.
    Barnsley FC is emotive.
    It's responsible for a plethora of emotions.
    We all are different, maybe it's the need to talk about it, feel reassured, seek clarification or more, people will talk.
    Some just prefer to be silent and not make any comment.
    We all respond differently.
    We are all fans.
    I myself posted about Marley Watkins.
    My first instinct was "Oh no, not Marley, please!" , This was reflected in the title of my post.
    He's my favourite player, I don't want him to leave under any circumstances.
    Only later when I'd calmed down did I think about how RS were playing with my emotions and stirring unrest.
    Their source was 'The Independent', a very good source , so they said, very convincingly.
    They're playing us all like a fiddle !
    I hold them in utter contempt.
    My only concern now is the lack of response from the club.
    That is all that is needed and I await that with some trepidation and fear, but nevertheless, when it comes it will be welcome.
    We have to hold our nerve this next week.

    Why anyone would tune into that station is beyond me. It's ****.

    I don't mind it. Not as good as the Radio 1 Ten Minute Takeover at 6 pm but a decent 50 (nearer 48) minutes afterwards. If people don't like their coverage don't listen to it, unless of course you're being forced to with a gun to your head or something.

    Me too.

    We should be calling "Football Hell" and telling them that. We should be asking them why they are being so gleeful about what's happening to the club we love and support and reminding them that their remit is to serve the whole of South Yorkshire and North Derbyshire, not just the jumped-up has-beens and never-has-beens of the Wendies and Blunts.

    Appalling. Can you imagine their attitude if it had been a Wendy/Blunt player almost killed?

    Also agree, they get most of their information from here and then go on to sensationalise it.
    Lazy journalism in full action !

    journalists hate a vacuum -- whether the news is accurate or not is irrelevant, - often the most biased rubbish gets the attention. As long as they've something to say they're happy!

    The clues in the stations title. I can't think why you would listen to it any time of day it is absolutely garbage.

    Even since the Hourihane to Wednesday for £1 million debacle I've not believed anything they've said
