    The beauty of the Tracky Buses in the 60s was that there was a cubby 'ole where the clippy used to store their spare rolls of paper for their ticket machines. We used to twoc some on the way to t'Tarn (we were from Athersley so such behaviour was to be expected) and duly lobbed them on to the pitch as the team came on to the pitch. Those from posher parts used to lob bog rolls!

    I don't recall that, but I do recall Aston Villa doing it, September 1970.

    I seem to remember Villa did, ten minutes before the end of the game as the Ponte End emptied and the Barnsley fans waited on the Jumble Lane bridge to lob missiles at the Villa fans making their way to the Train Station.

    Evening games at half time was an aroma of pipe smoke and Albert Hirst pork pies, with Don’t Cry For Me Argentina, by Julie Covington, blurting out to a sparse crowd.

    Looking at old photos there seem to be very few women in the crowd - also did children stand at the front?

    What did we used to do at half time Micky? Stand around chatting and waiting for the second half is all I can remember.

    Harry Roberts is our friend ....he kills coppers .....
    Then there was zigger zagger bill with his long greasey hair, no teeth so named has he was always shouting out zigger zagger zigger zagger ohi ohi ohi chant
    Give us a B ...bb gives us an A...aa all the way through to Y.....can't remember the ending lol....remember the special train ..the old carriages that set off with wall lights with fancy shades and came back without them or wall lights lol ...I know I shouldn't laugh but folk were either unscrewing them or pulling them off the wall of the carriages to take home...there was also the kiosk to the right of the kop and who of a certain age group can forget the stench of urine along the surrounding wall at the back of the brewery stand...and let's not forget we had a supporters club too.

    A fair few used to swap ends depending on which way we would be kicking in the 2nd half.

    This was early 70s(or before ?)I can remember the coppers with dogs rounding them up and being attacked by one, the city fans somehow managed to get in by coming all the way down at the back of the west stand and charging the gates that were there,this was at a time there used to be a police Porto cabin at the back of the west stand we’re they took you for a good hiding before you were thrown out of the ground.Always got back in again

    We are the Barnsley football club
    We roam around from pub to pub
    To die of thirst we have no fear
    As long as we’ve a drink of beer
    So raise your glass
    And raise it high
    And spit the froth
    In some c*nts eye
    We are the Barnsley football club
    We roam around from pub to pub

    Beer beer we want more beer
    All the lads are cheering
    Get the f*ckin beer in
    Repeat ad infinitum
