    This might sound absurd, and it probably is.

    But with this Christianity/China/Barnsley story coming out, I wonder if one of the 1.3 billion Chinese people fancies investing in the club?!

    I wonder if anyone at the club has thought about looking into it?!

    At least get some of them who come over to a match and who knows, get a link with a Chinese club and start the BFC brand in the biggest country in the world!

    I hope I made you smile :)

    f90k off - lets have someone who loves the club for the right reasons - do you need to look at what has happened elsewhere - IF ownership does change.

    That link is quite good until the last paragraph, where they say the Barnsley Chop is a "half decent PORK chop"!! FFS!!!!!!!!!

    Never even knew about this or this James Taylor guy, but it would be good if something did take off just for the economy of the town. Even a few thousand visitors would bring in money to the town. And hopefully the Chinese church will give us millions (but not buy the club) if we say that BFC were a massive part in his life (even though he moved long before our formation..... but still we can hope!) haha
