    This day in 1898 was the day that Barnsley played the club's first ever match in the Football League. It ended in a 1-0 defeat away at Lincoln City, the home team scoring after 75 mins. It was surprisingly played on a Thursday afternoon.

    I can imagine the moaners; failed to score, failed to keep a clean sheet, sign a striker, Fairclough out, sack the board, they don't want to go up, etc, etc. [​IMG]

    Our owners get it in the neck, but even them wouldn't pick a Thursday afternoon for our professional debut.

    My old dad used to say 'Bed & breakfast', when we scored 26 at darts lol.
    Because apparently, it used to cost 2 & 6, (whatever that was). ;)

    Half day closing?.. allow more people to attend, even the players. They wouldn't have been professional

    They had to get a rowing boat across the Trent at Dunham. Stop the boat and we wouldn't have lost.
