    By Ian Appleyard, Yorkshire Post reporter, 19[SUP]th[/SUP] March 2014

    I caught up with Mickey Mellon after he was relieved of his duties as assistant Manager today.

    “I am obviously squashed by the decision. Since I was appointed I regarded this as a plum job but the last two results were key-we simply didn’t compete. It is a shame its gone pear shaped as I honestly thought we’d got the core of a good team. Watford was poor and as soon as Deeney peeled off his marker to score the second, I felt we were berried. We survived by the skin of our teeth last season but this time around our labour has not borne fruits. To be honest, lime and lime again we have given silly goals away, with a lack of concentration. Simple balls into the mixer have not been defended, we’ve not pressed properly and not squeezed the opposition; its been ugli at times. However, I’ve had a grape time at Barnsley and wish all the fans the berry best.

    I know, I was a one trick pony, now a no trick pony. Its for the best though, as let's face it, I'd squeezed every last drop out of it....

    Yes, it was kind inevitable I'd be straight on to it I suppose. Glad he's gone, this drivel was driving people bananas...

    Pear usual, like that one, pity it has to be put on ice until another fruit based person joins the club!

    Have Barnsley Rugby Club got a message board cos they've got a player called Appleyard, maybe you can do your fruit-based puns on there?

    Is there an interview with Willcock? Plenty of potential there I'm sure.

    I started reading the post with sincerity until I realised it was supposed to be funny

    There may have been an attempt to make fun from a surname................but two guys have lost their job today and consequently lost their income............I'm seriously wondering how foooking low this board can fall

    To add insult to injury this poking fun at a person is aimed at a guy that worked his ballocks off to save the club from being relegated last season

    Its about foooking time that some on here just gave a bit of thought before posting FFS !!!
