    Great post. No wonder Barnsley has the reputation it does and things like this just add to the problem. Grown men ffs.

    Crazy isn't it. Many heard it Tuesday night. We could have had a statement out by Wednesday dinner. Instead it seems it took our opponents getting in touch to get a statement out two days later, late on Thursday.

    I'm guessing the majority chanting have probably never even kissed a girl never mind being in the presence of a pair of exposed breasts of a consenting female.

    Our statement says quite clearly that we made contact with Bristol not the other way round.

    Yes. Really, 100%
    Was nothing like as loud as you make out, so you should show more respect & your observation is irrelevant.
    Admittedly I'm East Upper but first I've heard of this is an earlier BBS thread & then the club's statement.

    What are you talking about? I should show more respect? To who? Who have I been disrespectful to?

    What a bizarre post

    I don't trust BFC to tell the truth but I don't trust a club that employs, in a senior managers position, a man currently awaiting trial on charges of domestic abuse to act with integrity either.

    Barnsley might be lying. Bristol might be lying. It's possible that neither are lying and different departments were contacting each other without either club realising they were already talking about it to each other. It is, however, wrong to automatically assume Barnsley must be lying because the club who gave former jail bird Joey Barton a job says something that contradicts us.

    I actually do despair at times with some of our neanderthal fans, it is very embarrassing that in this day and age they think that this is acceptable and even remotely funny.

    The Venn diagram that shows the participants in this chant, the Bambo Diaby chant, the setting off of flares and persistent standing I would expect to be close to a circle.

    It's all well and good putting media articles out condemning such actions, but when they keep happening you have to question the level of desire the club has to actually deal with it. And there's only one way, you identify and ban the individuals involved - both home and away. You can't tell me that's difficult to do.

    The fact these things keep happening tells me the club consider the financial benefit they get from that group of supporters to outweigh the reputational costs. I disagree.

    The absolute state of the comments about this on Facebook and Twitter.

    Full of comments about being snowflakes, woke, the game’s gone, laughing.

    The worst thing is that there’s fans of other clubs on the EFL’s share of the club’s post saying exactly the same.

    It seems our idiotic neanderthalic minority isn’t that small a minority after all.

    I didn’t hear anything from the West Stand, but this is just pathetic from the people shouting it. Even more so when we have our own female physio too - who tbf on the whole has been well respected by the Oakwell crowd.

    You could hear it in the East stand upper. Indefensible. There is a section of the ‘Ponty end’ that has more than its fair share of Barmpots. It’s not funny and it’s does a disservice to the Club.

    I’m sorry, but you would have to suffer from serious hearing loss not to hear it.
