    40000 watched an olympic flame arrive last year surely the team have earned the chance to allow the people OF bARNSLEY to say thank you.

    If you like, but not sure avoiding relegation from the Championship warrants a bus parade.
    Yesterday for me wasn't so much celebrating an achievement, it was more a feeling of relief. We have to kick on in this division - after 7 seasons we have to be looking at more than just avoiding relegation.

    Yesterday was a truly memorable day but you can't be serious - don't you think that an open top bus for the achievement of avoiding relegation is taking it too far - it would invite serious ridicule and the accusation that we are tin pot.

    don't be silly. People of Barnsley can say thank you by buying season ticket and persuading a reluctant mate to do the same.

    I think you are getting a bit giddy there matey! The Bruce and Bobby day at Oakwell tomorrow is the perfect opportunity to show our appreciation. I would expect the whole squad and management will be there to celebrate with their families and the supporters. Get thissen darn! :D

    We'd look proper tinpot if avoiding relegation is seen as something to parade around the town.
