My mate a big Wendy allus used to tell me he was allus terrified when the king entered the arena lol.
They love his loyalty, yeah money buys loyalty, the money they didn’t have paid his wages. Thick twots.
At Hillsborough, as a member of the press you have to walk through a home stand concourse to get pitchside. The day we beat them 2-0, I was making my way down (BFC jacket on) and one of their fans sees me, and proceeds - with about three teeth in his mouth and dressed like he’s found clothes in Steptoe’s backyard - to call me a “f*****g dingle b*****d”. “Thank you very much.” I told him, smiling, as I walked by. At half time in the reverse fixture, Chansiri (who is no taller than 5 foot and reeks of tobacco smoke) waddled beyond our stewards in the tunnel to enter the away dressing room to kick off. The bloke is an absolute lunatic with no people skills, real life experience and makes decisions based on lucky numbers and shapes. F**k them.
I was squashed in the Lepping Lane (waiting for a disaster) end . You could hear 3 sides of the ground moaning as he was warming up. We were buzzing. It was almost like an old football with the laces. Tied to his feet ,I've never witnessed a player since,that as the crowd buzzing when he had the ball. Wasn't this the game which Derek Parker got crocked.
Nothing can beat the show put on By Stuart Barraclough when we drew 2-2 at their place. Imho Best 1st 45 minutes ever by a Barnsley side. 1981. Read and weep Sterland.
