After much rumour and speculation down the years, it seems certain now that a supporters club bar will be fitted out in the Pontefract Road end stand for use towards the end of this season or at the beginning of next. There is a large void under this stand that has gone unutilised since it was built. The front part of this area is currently used by the Supporters Trust and it is expected that the Trust will have a large say in the membership arrangements for the new Club. Oakwell Community Assets Limited (OCAL) is funding the fixtures and fittings for the new club which will be available on match days only. OCAL is a joint venture between Patrick Cryne and the local council.
Can you imagine a fan making a negative comment in there? Riot police would come in and ban them from oakwell for life
I was wondering whether to register with my farnham barnsleyfc.org.uk email address and see whether I'd be allowed in Then see kow long it would take to get banned But decided life was too short
RE: Wonder when that will be on the official official site? nt Does it go semi-official, then official? What about if you sign up for the club's text message service - do you find out before or after the semi-official site?
RE: I don't think its semi-official You you could be right. I thought from discussions this week the bar plan was to remain confidential until further progress is made and its set in stone. I would also have thought that if that really is the team for tomorrow Simon Davey aint gonna be too chuffed thats its been put on the web a day early by someone associated with the club.
You know what he says He has NO ties with the club, only helps them ouyt occasionally , lending them a photographer, baby sitting young players etc. He Never gets paid for any work he does for the club. So how can you say he is associated with them
methinks i posted this a couple of weeks ago on here and no one took any notice... will also be the local oakwell residents community/youth centre on non match days
Indeed you did However dont let that get in the way of good moan...dunno what they are moaning abart like</p> http://www.barnsleyfc.org.uk/bbs/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=128999&posts=2#M856366 </p>
RE: You know what he says Try phoning the club up on the main switchboard and ask for him Its unusual to get put through to someone not associated in any way
Must be worth a tinkle Only needs one of us to get through, and the cat is well clear of that horrible little bag. Was good to meet you BTW (again).
