Well..... We played Middlesborough in a pre-season friendly so we are obviously interested in whats happening there. Seriously I cant believe Rob put that there - is it possible for the Middlesborough admin to accidentally put it in the wrong place on the premiumtv server? Also have you noticed at the moment there are no adverts on http://www.barnsleyfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/Welcome wonder if there is summat up outside BFC's control
I believe that the club chooses which ad to put on the welcome page In the championship some clubs have got an ad for their 'world' service with a short video clip playing, some are advertising their sms service, others like leeds and birmingham have clearly got unique ads, (leeds is asking who's feathers will be ruffled on saturday).</p> Inteestingly, i'm not at all surprised by the small (crap) clubs that havent bothered. colchester, us, hull...)</p>
I think its good its on the official site Such a good cause for Colin Cooper, not like the majority of testamonials. All going to his own charity for his little boy. If having that advert raises £30 (through barnsley fans knowing people in the Middlesborough area) then its a job well done. SuperTyke you're getting about as repetitive as Dreamboy did about Chris Taylor, and how Windy and Bingley Red are about each other. What harm has been done?
It's almost impossible to find genuine barnsley news and information on the site because it is full of other crap. </p>
