    What are the most 'typical Barnsley' moments in the clubs history?

    I'm thinking the Oli McBurnie Fax machine incident.

    Or the transfer offer sent to the St Mirren supporters group.

    Or Emmanuel Frimpong.

    Or getting kicked out of the FA Cup?

    Or letting @YT have a go at spot the ball.

    Non of these are typical Barnsley moments for me until now.

    Most popular one is "conceding in the last minute"

    Typical Barnsley would be conceding in the last minute of extra time at Wembley against Wednesday.

    What was the St Mirren one? Who were they after? Only player I can think of in recent years was Stevie Mallan?

    Yeah the last minute, which was about 10 minutes of stoppage time. And that was unheard of in those days.

    Unfortunately it’s this.

    If I live to the year 2100 nothing will ever be as bad as that.

    My abiding memory of the 90/91 debacle was looking up at the director's box when players came out and seeing Brendan's face, I knew then that what we'd been told wasn't reality.
