    He's a Cas fan. Or a bigwig in the hierarchy of Rugby league. :).
    This looks like it could be the year you get your deserved promotion mate. Make it a double.

    Could we bring inflatable plant pots, to stick on the head lol. And do the "sing when your digging, you only sing when your digging" song, which I've just made up by the way. :D
    I loved the sing when your rowing thing at Wembley, and how the Oxford fans didn't know how to react to it.

    In order to reinforce the negative stereotype maybe every cap could have I VOTED BREXIT on it.

    I worked in Sheffield all my life and anyone from Barnsley was called a capper.
    It would give the Wednesday fans great pleasure thinking their vision of us is bang on.

    Maybe if they all dress as incestuous paedophiles, we could take great pleasure in knowing our vision of them is bang on.

    really hope note, it really is time to update our image, might as well go all in and add inflatable whippets!
    Maybe over sized caps to emphasise its a joke I suppose but really no!!

    The irony is, all over social media, Wednesday fans throw tons of stereotypes in our direction, not very nice ones. But it seems, what's more insulting than being accused of having 6 fingers and sleeping with our sisters, is them seeing us in flat caps.

    Grow up.

    If you want to wear a flat cap, wear one. If you don't, don't. I think it's a great idea. Whether I'll do it myself, I'm not sure, but I'll make that decision myself, not based on what someone from bleeding Parsons Cross thinks.

    Quite right people from Parsons Cross go to Asda in their PJs.
