    Hello everyone,

    I've not been on the board since the weekend because sadly one of my best friends was killed in a road traffic accident after the Leeds Festival on Friday night. He was only 27 and leaves behind a devastated wife.

    He was a Burnley fan, and had often visited Oakwell with me to watch games and I found out the news just after we had drawn Burnley in the League Cup. I had been looking forward to another trip to the game with him.

    The only positive I can take at the moment is what an incredible last month he had, especially seeing his beloved football team play in the top flight for the first time and beat both Man Utd and Everton.

    Rest In Peace mate.

    So sorry to hear that, mate

    You've certainly put the petty squabbling with regards to a new manager at Barnsley in it's true perspective.
