By my reckoning, the BBS is around 10 years old now - when did you post your first message?

    the board were far more informative back then. I learnt loads of stuff, like for example, when using a poker, "How not to cause a puther".

    I think I had a meeting that day or something. I learnt that Barnsley was up north and that.

    Sometime 1996 - Blade baiting

    Insulted some nice gent known as "Glossop Blade" for my very first post. Bummers such as AIRTyke and E.I.Addio were on there too - whatever happened to them?

    I think

    The original BBS came online in October 1997. Not sure when I first used it but I hardly ever posted back then.

    Bummers?

    We were known as Romulus and Remus in those days. Though Airtyke never did like sucking the wolf's tit.

    What an empire it is now. Though the plebs have taken over the senate.

    Radders, Johnny WIG and Matt had sites...

    ... and I think Dazza had one too. Radders bought the barnsleyfc.co.uk domain name (that was later given to the club FFS!). We had a meeting in the Old No. 7 and merged them (after a fashion) We located to other domain names such as uredz.co.uk and others and then this one came along after Tommys demise.

    Original merging sites were

    Radders, Matts and Johnny WIG's.

    Joint purchase of the BarnsleyFC.co.uk by me, Lou, Radders,
    Matt, Tuffers and Bob. I can't remember if Airy were part of
    that an all... he may have been.

    The "sale" to the club was part of a deal where we also ran the
    fans part of the official site. It all seemed a good idea at the time.
    One of the best bits was Spinksy having to come to terms with
    negotiating with a woman !! Lou headed our delegation after he
    had been threatening to sue us for the domain name. Sure he
    was expecting 15 year olds... but he got us old gimmers :)
