https://barnsleyfc.org.uk/threads/stewards-i-know-its-early-days.316023/ Read from my post onwards. Can't ask for more from that statement. Well done club.
This makes it seem like I'm justifying it. I'm not btw. Would just like to think grown blokes had a bit more about them than showing off in front of their mates... idiots.
Ponty end season ticket holder.Joey Barton got some stick but other than that didn’t hear anything idiotic.
Well done BFC. The right statement at the right time. Nothing to complain about to the Comms Department here.......but mebbe, just mebbe, some of our serial complainers will find fault somewhere.
And the wolf whistling. The whole ground must have heard it. Anyone who didn't needs to get their hearing checked.
He said he remembers it. Any negativity should be aimed at the Neanderthals chanting at the female physio.
No I could clearly see Adult men doing it,probably men with daughters the same age as the physio. Also would those same cretins like me to ask their mum,wife,daughter or Vicky ,the Barnsley physio, to show me her breasts? No,so why do they think it's ok for them?. A lot pf people around the country think people from Barnsley are ignorant, bigoted morons. Nice to see and hear some Barnsley people confirming their views. It wasn't a small number,it was the majority of the lower left section of the Ponte end,minimum 160.
It was disappointing to hear, considering the fall out from the Hex situation last week. But then again, some of the comments from during the women's Euro's highlight that as a club, we've still a section of our fan base who struggles to have respect for women, so it didn't surprise me.
Even made the BBC https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62593788 Glad the club have acknowledged it happened and are investigating - Hopefully they can identify the ring leaders and take steps to prevent a recurrence
