    How differently these owners perceive their respective clubs.
    And consequently - how different our fortunes have been since this photograph was taken.

    I don’t get it, is there a secret message here or are you referring to a scarf?

    Wolves have been on one helluva journey. But it won’t last forever and then what?

    I genuinely want these owners out of our club, but if they pumped money into the club like wolves have I’d be equally concerned. That’s just not sustainable, I wouldn’t mind the away days in Istanbul though. :D

    All I expected from our owners was to retain our squad and be a competent championship club again. Patrick managed to keep us in this division for years on a shoestring budget. These lads are on course for 2 relegations in 3 year.

    Stark difference between the two directions of the clubs.
    No I wouldn’t want our owners to go down the same route as Wolves - BUT, it would be good if we had gone a little bit down the Wolves route.

    Didn't you personally welcome Chien to Oakwell Nudger and shake his hand and thanked him on behalf of all Barnsley fans?

    I used to think it was Dance hall Denzil when it first came out and for years after.

    Their early stuff is really ****** up prog rock meets post punk, under the name Huang Chung. They soon realised that they weren't going to get rich that way.
    The rest is history.

    Strangely was playing a Tim Hardin LP from the 60's & this came on. This is not a joke I did play this LP!
