    Sorry for being impatient but I just think an olive bar would add a touch of class!:p

    I'm beginning to visualise an olive bar, prosecco and Jay and Orsen doing poetry recitals.
    Any chance we could knock together a string quartet?

    Don't forget I'll be serving sun blushed tomato and basil focaccia to complement Mr Spicer's olive and hummus bar!

    I'm just wondering where the Châteauneuf-du-Pape stall will go?

    Splendid. You can't beat a fistful of focaccia and a couple of juicy olives. :)

    Oh we definitely need some cheese now. Maybe some cured meats too. To go with that bread. Maybe even some port for an after match victory tipple.

    If this didn't change the image of Barnsley fans, nothing ever would! Of course... we also need a temporary clothes outlet to sell baseball caps and ill fitting jeans for the ne'erdowells.

    Why don't we just ditch the fanzone and set up a farmer's market in its place?

    I love proper markets. To say we're in an area with the potential for such amazing produce (though I don't know how much demand there is for it in Barnsley), we haven't tapped into it very well at all. I'd love the club to be harnessing small businesses and be the true hub of the town. Whether creatives, trades, or into food and drink spheres. You never know, some decent fresh cooked food that hasn't been frozen or shipped from god knows where might change tastes for a few. Would love us to push into the realms of being a more ethical club, but very aware we still only have a small nucleus to rely on.

    Because the ne'erdowells would most definitely take that literally ;-)

    Or I could knock a tune or two out on my Fender Strat! (Let's face it, when you know the chords to one Status Quo song you know them all!)

    Now THAT is very true. My ex boss once gave me a lift back from Kent to Barnsley and played Quo on the stereo most of the way.
    The horror!!

    My wife does an exceptional sundried tomato and olive focaccia (using our own marinated olives of course) . We could take orders although exporting to UK with all those post Brexit import tariffs may be a bit of a problem;)

    It would be great for the CEO to be in his shiniest suit on Look North with a tear in his eye lamenting the sale of Kieffer Moore. The club could design a podium with the crest on it like 10 Downing Street.

    Is it me or does the farewell post on the official club site seem fairly lukewarm about the big man?

    George has informed me that he's now going to be running a traditional "hide the sausage" mini-game (18+ males only) alongside his olive bar duties.
