    Seriously? With staggered entry times and a tiny attendance then closing the bridge is an absolute joke of a decision

    Too right. The jobsworths have truly taken over the asylum.

    They even gave themselves a loophole in the original announcement "This is subject to change based on individual matches." If this game doesn't qualify for change I'd LOVE to know what would!

    The thing that makes it even more stupid is that it's open up to one hour before kick off so the first 2000 people can use it but the second cant

    You have to miss this though don't you. I saw it on Facebook and had to laugh.

    One day, a long long time in the future, a new bridge will be built and

    Obviously since I no longer 'live locally' I had, kind of, lost touch with this ongoing saga and wrongly assumed after all this time (even with Covid throwing) the 'temporary' structure would have, by now, been replaced with something permanent and in keeping with the image of a modernised Town Centre. Instead we have a structure that looks like a full size version of a metal model bridge I got with my first Triang train set back in the late '50s. Frankly it is all a bit embarrassing and, regardless of who is responsible, be it local or central Govt, or Railtrack ( whatever the latest 'quango' is called) it is high time the farcical situation was resolved. BFC shopuld get 'big Val' to bang a few head together;)

    EDIT: Just notices the report... over 2 years!!! since the crossing was closed and the ...ahem....temporary structure erected..... 2 effing years!! It will son be like those 'temporary prefacbs they built just after WW2 in Kendray that lasted decades. That said they bricked round them and they were/are pretty tidy, warm and dry dwellings! My missus ex's parents lived in one in Gilbert Grove

    I'll be honest, when I read jumble Lane crossing was closed, I got a bit giddy.

    Sorry, but it won't feel like a proper football season until someone comes on to a thread like this and says:

    It's a FOOOKING DISGRACE!

    So all routes to oakwell must go via the bridge. I didn't know that.

    The last update from BMBC said that work on the bridge would start in May 2021 once Yorkshire Water finish the necessary diversion works. With working starting in May, the bridge was scheduled to open in December. However, it doesn’t look like Yorkshire Water are anywhere near finishing, so I doubt the bridge will be finished this year.

    It really would be nice if it was done for the new season, but can't see it.
