    Today marks the seven-year anniversary since Barnsley Football Club lost one of its own.


    First introduced to Barnsley FC in the 1950’s by his Uncle Ernest, Patrick Cryne became, as he described, the club’s ‘buyer of last resort’ in 2003, as Barnsley Football Club faced the threat of going out of business.

    Patrick turned the fortunes of his boyhood club around and during his tenure as owner the Reds were successful in two play-off finals, enjoyed three memorable trips to Wembley and produced many notable talents through the prestigious Barnsley FC Academy.

    His memory will always live on. The Club lives on, as does the legacy of one of our own.

    We are all thinking of you, Patrick. Our thoughts as a Club, on this day forever and always are with you, and of course with Jean and James.

    Once a Red. Always a Red.
