    I think that because Barnsley, Doncaster and Rotherham are all about 8 miles from Bolton on Dearne, if you said "tarn" nobody would know which one you were talking about so it was always "Barnsley", "Donny" or "****-hole" sorry I meant "Rotherham".

    First thing you see in Rotherham town centre is the burnt out remains of Muskaan Indian Restaurant and Envy Night Club with the roof missing. This is on the Main Street.

    Bit controversial I know Havana. BUT you can support Tarn. ( I know of no other clubs fans that use that expression) Although I believe only Yorkshire folk would understand. As it’s a pretty new remark. Or come from and support Tarn.

    If someone supports the toon. It’s synonymous with Newcastle as a place and football club.

    Using Tarn, over time will indeed become recognised widely.

    Tarn is commonly used around the East Midlands area as well

    is that used in the same meaning though Marlon. In the meaning of a lake rather than slang for town.?
