    I've been really impressed by Julie, I think she's been a breath of fresh air for the club and it should be a source of pride that we have an incredibly diverse boardroom.

    I really like her commitment and what she does. I have to say I find her fashion sense a bit way out for my tastes but that's irrelevant. When you take a look at the Wigan forum and the complete disregard and lack of interest their owners seem to have for their club I reckon we're very lucky to have JAQ on board.

    A great read that. We are very lucky to have people like her on the board.

    Interesting to read that the tracksuits being worn for the play off final, have been designed by Devante Cole.

    Good article that, spoiled only by having an image of a Barnsley Women's player supporting the paragraph relating to Barnsley Ladies.

    I think Neerav was in it as a professional investor at the start. Seemed to grow genuinely fond of us and continued his relationship on the basis of being a fan.
    Julie seems same. Probably bought in for financial reasons, but turned into a fan. At first I thought it was a bit fake - professional cheerleader trying to show the natives that she is 'one of us'.
    But now I genuinely believe she is.

    Feels good.

    I think she’s genuine too but shouldn’t forget her job is about promoting brands etc so she would be pretty crap at it if she didn’t paint herself in a positive light.

    "Before this season started, Quay and her fellow board members met for dinner and discussed where they thought Barnsley would finish. The consensus was between 12th and ninth (their budget is between 10th and 12th in the 24-team division)"

    Interesting to see what our budget was in regards for the rest of the league and what our expectations were for this season.

    I think she's brilliant. We're going in the right direction. Sure I saw somewhere that Kid Super will design the kits in collab with PUMA next season. Can't wait to see them.

    The bit wear she said. Fans were saying Show us your titties rather than get your Tits out for the lads. Made me chuckle. Not defending it at all. But when did Barnsley fans take on such language.
    Good insight and what about Devante Cole designer of the Tunnel wear. Talented lad. Career in front of him. When he packs Soccer;) :) in.
