    They do right. There is no room for sentiment in business. We should be advertising our matches in loads of different parts of Yorkshire trying to attract new fans, including in Sheffield and Huddersfield.

    So strictly speaking they aren't coming onto "our patch" as Mexbrough is part of Donny. That would be like saying we are encroaching on Wenesday's patch when we are promoting the club in Elsecar!

    Its part of Barnsley East in the Parliament stakes.

    Actually, Rotherhams old ground is the closest to Mexborough, then there's not much between Donni and Barnsley as the crow flies. I had mates at school who were variously Wednesday, Rotherham, Donni and Barnsley fans (obviously glory hunting Man U as well). So I would say its up for grabs, along with Wakefield, not that BFC marketing dept could get their collective ass in gear and go fishing for fans.

    There's a few of our fans from Mexborough including their famous son, l dont think l've ever seen a Donny shirt there. So patch meaning its been a catchment area for us in the past.

    Yours sincerely

    I grew up in Elsecar and was the only Tarn supporter thru school, until we got to the Prem... 95% of my mates were Wendyites...

    Anyone remember what Patrick Cryne said during the build-up to Wembley..

    Basically he said people at the club moaned and said things like 'the cheek of it' when the various street traders in Tarn were selling unofficial BFC merchandise' He said something along the lines of, it wasn't cheek they were just entrepeneurs and perhaps the club should've been a little more proactive.

    Same applies here methinks.
