    on Saturday I'll be walking out.

    Of all the supporters in England they are the ones I'd least like to be facing in our situation. I can just see it now.

    Could even be the last action I see this season.

    I'm seriously worried about Saturday, I absolutely detest them as a club but unfortunately can't see anything other than a defeat for us. To have them gloating and taking the piss will be too much especially if it gets to 2 or 3 nil.

    The only thing that gives me a bit of hope is that they need to win too and if they go for it there's a possibility it could be an open game. I'm clutching I know.

    If they go 2 0 up I'm going to put some ear plugs in and stay until the end to see if we pull it back. If we don't I'm going to set fire to the Curry Mahal, where some of the waiters are Blunts.

    After we beat Leeds in the famous January 2017 match I went in there for a curry, still on a high from the match. One of the waiters told me to stop going on about Barnsley in the presence of Blunts fans. I told him I was in my home village in my home town and I'll celebrate what I want, and it was him who was on "away" territory. One of two other customers who were Reds fans backed me up. The t**t (there, I've said it) asked me to leave. His boss (Ash, for those who know him) intervened and the knob got a right telling off. My meal was free and the Blunt never bothered me again.

    Might pop in on Saturday night if we win...

    Just in case MI5 or CIA are monitoring the BBS, this was a joke.

    That's what being a supporter is all about - leaving early.

    Pop in if we lose. Might give you a free consolation prize.

    It's what living in a free country and being a paying customer is also about.

    Good idea. We would be in a right pickle if we lose, so I might order a couple of pops to go with it.

    Yeah, but how many times has he gobbed in your curry since then?

    Rule no. 1 - if you have a run in with staff in a restaurant, avoid that restaurant again, unless you fancy eating various bodily waste products.

    I always assume that they'll strengthen my immune system.

    To be fair to the bloke, he apologised a week or so later and he's been fine ever since. That could change on Saturday though, I suppose.

    I can't imagine anyone having a go at you, my old mate, you're simply not the sort of bloke to antagonise anyone!
    I think I might hire you to be my bodyguard.

    I'm sure you know the bloke I mean, he appears to be the second in command there after Ash. He was a disgrace that night. Fancy telling me I can't celebrate a Barnsley win in my home village in Barnsley!

    Yes, I do know who you mean. I'm definitely not going in there now without you to look after me.

    If I was looking after you you'd probably end up in a korma.

    Maybe it means someone cares more if they can't bare to watch us lose?

    Bit late for you Jack, surprised your head's not on the pilau. Can't say anything else as I've signed a naan disclosure agreement.
