    Funny you should say that. He wants me to take him out in town once this is over. He doesn’t drink. But he’s one of those blokes who doesn’t need to. Lucky twât.

    Once I retire, it’s on the agenda. All proceeds to charity.

    I watched the programme as well. VI was interviewed and said that when the pandemic was over
    he looked forward to meeting some of our fans. Craig Sedgwick outlined the arrangements around
    the Club regarding the wearing of masks, social distancing and the fact that each player is responsible
    for washing their own kit.

    One of our fans, one Carlo Van de Watering also featured. One segment was from Wednesday night
    when we played Cardiff. The BBC reporter was Ian White who commented that our business plan
    had seen us through the pandemic thus far and Hon Sec Roushdie then had the last word.

    Must say, the ground looked very impressive from the shots taken from the North stand and I was chuffed
    that we had been selected for the feature instead of say Leeds or one of the Sheffield clubs.

    This is the greatest football club there is. Never forget that.

    In 12 days time, we'll show the world. Again.

    It certainly is. The feeling of friendliness, togetherness and belonging to a wider " family", is
    what attracted myself and my then impressionable thirteen year old son as we left Oakwell
    for the first time on that November 1988 teatime, after watching Allan Clarkes mighty Reds beat
    AFC Bournemouth 5-2 with David Currie scoring four times.

    I think it also helped that being South Yorkshire born and bred anyway and the fact that my wife's
    parents were both born in Wombwell before relocating to Doncaster helped, as we knew that unlike
    their counterparts in West Yorkshire who since our move to Wakefield we had hitherto found to be
    standoffish , Barnsley folk had " no edge" and were and still are, the salt of the earth.
