    No idea why but this just came up on my FB feed and I found myself watching it:

    Great video.

    P.S. Mr Lee, Mr Conway et al - please, please don't leave Oakwell!

    That’s a moving piece of film. I’ve been to that ground many times and it’s a shame that they will be pulling it down soon. This is the fate of most old things unfortunately. I hope I never have to see Oakwell going the same way.

    A moving piece of film. Been to the ground a couple of times. Bit of a trek from the station.

    Respect to all, but please, Cryne family and Barnsley Council, please don't put us in a position whereby this could happen to us.

    Saw that a couple of days ago. Great video and I can imagine it’s sad if you’ve been going there all your life
    Did think I hope we won’t be watching similar soon

    "David Longhurst" stand named after the player who died on the pitch.
    Didn't we have a Longhurst on our books at some stage?

    Last time I went, you could see **** all it was that foggy.

    Brian Joicey was kicked and ended up having a stroke.

    1-0 victory with a goal from newish signing Derek Bell.
