    Barnsley FC has confirmed that Sooty9 will be sued, following a hilarious joke that went wrong.

    A post on an Internet bulletin board, made in jest, caused most fans to split their sides with laughter, such was the ingenuity of it, but not Mr Harry Pugh of Wath. Upon reading that the Leicester match had fallen victim to the weather, he reluctantly agreed to have his wife's relatives over for a belated Easter lunch.
    Gutted Harry said " It's not funny. not only do I miss the game, but the inlaws are all from Doncaster. I'm fuming."

    A spokesperson for BFC said: We will be claiming for the loss of £28. It's money we cannot afford to lose, and we take a dim view on pranks, even if they are as witty as the one Sooty9 came up with.
