411 tickets already sold,will still be on sale till 2pm on friday. Plus the buy on the day Northern contingent,so I'll go for 600 to 700 City fans at Barnsley
Is it not unreasonable to expect at least 1000 at any of our away games ........ We're Bristol City were top of the league......
The change in our fortunes has been fantastic, good on all those away fans, they are made of stern RED stuff, ADGE would be proud..
Northern contingent here I will be in south Yorkshire on Saturday, wouldn't miss it for all the ale in York And when we win I may just finish all the said ale in York. Up-The-City
I went to Oakwell when we were pushing for promotion in 2004/5 ? We won 1-0, took loads of fans and Tony Rougier got the goal. It was a great day out
Do you remember when Lita was clean through on goal in the 2nd half to wrap up the points and stopped..? Still cant figure why he did it !
football must be a powerful drug indeed when Barnsley and "good day out" are used in the same sentence. I'll have some of what he's having
Barnsley, along with a lot of towns in west yorkshire is a fab night out. went to nightclub in Barnsley once that was done out like a circus big top including model elephants and some scary women
Our day in 2004 or whenever up there was brilliant despite the fact that the place itself is a bit of a hole. Stopped on the outskirts of town to get some lunch in a pub, then went to some sort of leisure centre close to the ground where the drinking continued unabated. The only crap bit was an Indian restaurant we stopped in at Droitwich on the way back which was truly awful !
I really do expect a better result than my only visit to Oakwell. New Years Day, driving horizontal rain, Gary Shelton sent off and we lost 2-0 or 2-1. So for everyone going tomorrow, make lots of noise and bring back all three points with you. COYREDS!!!!!!!
Barnsley is in South Yorkshire mate, and West and south are two very different places. Leeds is west, and a very lively town it is. West is hill country, with a lot of money and high culture whereas the south is spit and sawdust, and very 'northern'. If you want nice then keep going south until Lincoln. PS There are a lot of scary women in Yorkshire, and thats just the blokes
Yep you are correct, easy to make the mistake of not knowing where you are when totally smashed. Still won't hear a bad word against Barnsley as a night out
That was my only visit to Barnsley, we decided to go on Xmas eve and drove up.. can remember nothing about the game.!
