    I moved to spain in August last year, my only fear was missing Barnsley matches. After holding a season ticket for 30 odd years.
    I still watch every game on ifollow. I have never felt so low watching the Reds as I am now. Although footballing wise we have been in a worse position over the years.
    We have had owners over the years with little money to invest in the club, but they always did their best to rectify poor situations.
    These owners all of them!!!! All of them no matter what % they own plus the owners of the land and stadium are allowing the club to spiral into decline.
    I feel so sad watching what is happening, brilliant campaign last season which gave everyone hope and bought into the club with over 10 thousand season tickets sales. Just to let all the successful staff leave some been there for years.
    These owners are killing our club in front of our eyes.
    The only little chance we have is that these supposed potential buyers are legitimate.
    I hope and pray they are

    I'd be following you but for these stupid non-resident rules since we left Europe. We have a house that cannot be occupied full time without residencia and the Spanish government have made it ridiculously hard to get that. Are you there on a working visa or a NLV?

    ‘All’ don’t feel like that though.

    ‘All’ are disappointed, frustrated, whatever you want to call it. But ‘all’ don’t feel the same.

    I would buy a house tomorrow in Spain or any other warm country in the EU but getting a residence is practically nill, these brexiteers not only voted to keep Johnny Foreigner out but to keep the British in.

    A solicitor has told us if we stay here for 3 years you automatically become entitled to apply for residencia. As long as you can prove you have bought a property here, a Spanish bank account, NIE number, padron from local town hall, proof of all this plus bills you have paid for 3 years.

    You've really lost me, your really trying to change the story into something else, proper bbs pi llock attention seeking or what? Your mates will be along shortly to help you out.
    Kingtyke wrote a heartfelt post, I commented on it as in barnsley being a bit more shyter than Spain to feel a bit more depressed about our club that's all, didn't realise it would bring out a couple off ar se holes.

    Lovely response.

    You were saying every Barnsley fan thinks like you. I disagreed.

    ‘BBS pillock attention seeking’ is funny though.
