RE: There was hardly any crowd reaction that day I think only 2 people in the ground reacted after the 'Assult' & that was me & D/T has it happened directly in front of us, even people in the East Stand where telling us to calm down as it wasn't that bad. Has D/T said after the game if either me or him had done that on Wellington Street that evening we'd have got 12 months.
Just telling it the way I heard it I suppose it depends where the Barnsley World microphones are as to what they pick up. I remember the crowd reaction very well a fraction of a second before the commentator described what he thought was a certain sending off (can't remember the exact words). I presume you were there so obviously I can't really argue, I can only say the way I heard it on Barnsley World. I also had several texts and PMs during and shortly after the game telling me that Morgan had flattened Hume. I got those before news broke (later in the evening) about the seriousness of his injuries.
RE: Any bad luck coming to Monkey Morgan and his buddy Kevin 'the weasel' Blackwell is............ What??? Dressed as naughty nurses and stuff???
To be honest I reacted.... and so did many round me. I sit in the East Lower and it was straight in front of me. It was more a reaction to Hume going down though if memory serves. It was obvious he was hurt. Didn't realise Morgan had meant to do it till I saw it on the telly . . . .
dont thnk it was only you two everyone around me was calling fro morgan to be sent off and going crazy. the fact that hume was sprawled out next to the dugout after going off said it all
Hume was on the floor before the ball was headed by Morgan Hardly any crowd reaction, I was livid as were the majority of the people around me.
Brilliant mate Loved all that stuff. Benny Hill, Dick Emery, Stanley Baxter, Two Ronnies, Dave Allen. Classic stuff!!!
RE: Brilliant mate Cheers, just wanted to lighten the tone of the thread a little. I reckon that music has some serious potential for a new ring tone

RE: Seig Heil nt I've got a T shirt with that picture on. Wore it in a pub on the Strand in London before the West Ham cup match last season. Funnily enough, some Blunts came in looking forward to their match at Orient, only to discover a few minutes later that their match had been called off due to a frozen pitch. We were of course not amused by this news at all, and didn't laugh at them one bit
Absolute nonsense! Folks 'round me were going mad. I sent numerous text messages to a friend who supports Blades. The general tone of the messages was that the game was being played in an awful atmosphere, and that Blades were fouling our players all over the pitch, and that I'd never seen a Reds crowd turn so hostile. At 0-0 I sent messages saying that I wasn't enjoying the game because of the atmosphere, and because I thought it inevitable someone would be sent off. Ok I didn't know that Hume had a fractured skull, but I came away from that game feeling sick at what I had seen. No-one knew the extent of the injury you're right, but that game stood out for me because I never want to leave early & I did want to leave long before full time.
RE: Absolute nonsense! That is exactly the picture I had built up from behind my screen in Germany. A hostile crowd who knew they had witnessed something terrible.
The hostility of the crowd on that day is nothing compared to how it'll be in November. Morgan copped for a 90-minute torrent of abuse at Bramall Lane last season, the likes of which I'd not experienced before. If the skullcrusher is wise, he'll feign injury for their visit in November - otherwise somebody will nail him, be it a Barnsley player or an inflamed spectator*. *I'm not insinuating that the spectator will be me, before the authorities decide to come and break my door down. It won't be. But somebody, somewhere inside Oakwell that day is going to get a piece of him.
Better get this guy out of retirement for the game http://images.google.co.uk/images?h...esult_group&ct=title&resnum=4&ved=0CCEQsAQwAw Personally I think that a Hume hat trick would be the ideal revenge.
