    Yes.. two great big speakers in the Ponty and stewards are a new thing. Always police, numbers depending on who we were playing.

    It was all the same song but the tune changed for the second part. I think the tune for the first part was O Christmas tree. Don’t know the name of second tune

    I remember strong smell of linament they used to cover their legs in - used to stand in West Stand and it was really strong.

    Do you think any away fans went home in a Barnsley ambulance?

    Half time used to last 10 minutes. Most of that time was spent moving from the Ponty to the Kop or vice-versa.

    In the days of the Grandstand tele-printer (a Telex machine) the results would start coming in at 5:40 or so. Not from Oakwell though we were one of a handful of clubs who kicked off at 3:15, 5 minutes after the pubs shut.
