    Best memory of “Joan” Collins was at Hull in 1979. Think it was Big Trev’s debut.

    We filled the old side at Boothferry Park and during the second half a few lads started singing “We are Barnsley, we are Barnsley, Super Barnsley, from Oakwell” to the tune of Sailing. Then a few more and before long the whole Reds following were singing it for ages. And Joan was standing there conducting us.

    RIP Joan.

    That song brings back great memories of bygone times. I seem to remember it echoing round White Hart Lane all through the replay against Enfield.
    This was our song in those days, long before Miiiiwaaaaaa scum adopted and adapted it.
    Would be brilliant if we could get Oakwell rocking to it on our return.
