Oakwell 23rd October

[Jinxy1966]

A new cinema in Barnsley eh, that means they must have finally got electric n street lamps. Bet they can walk abart nah without wearing a hemlet wi a torch on it.

Opening day was a huge hit with the locals. Saturday Matinee with a Roy Rogers / Lone Ranger double bill with an interlude for Pathé News. The queue of unkempt urchins with cowboy hats & cap pistols stretched all the way past Jud Crumpsall’s Tripe Emporium on Peel Street. Once inside they gasped at the luxurious maroon velour seats & the fake stars on the ceiling as the usherette led them through the darkness & fag smoke using a Davy lamp to light the way. They then sat with mouths gaping in awe as the screen flickered into life & they witnessed for the first time the spectacle of “moving pictures” which was immediately denounced as the work of the devil.
The projectionist was then lynched & subjected to the ducking stool at Tinkers Pond before being burned at the stake as a witch.

We should expect huge crowds gathering to witness the wondrous iron horse carrying Blades fans arrive at the station.

Listen me owd cocka. I carnt really say owt cos I’m from Rovrum originally & nar live in them hinterlands between Tarn & Wakefield district

Confirmed on our site. 12:30 on the Sunday. So that's that ruined.

Btw, if you haven't been to Barnsley since April 2018 you won't recognise the place. Seriously.

Ya think ?

 

[cahill]

Same everywhere mate. I do think Barnsley Council are trying hard though, and they do have some sort of vision. And, I gather that the wonderful Maison du Biere in Elsecar are opening a branch in town. And - second best pizza I've ever had, anywhere, is Evoo on Market Hill. Only beaten by my son's home made pizzas, which are amazing. Not bad for little owd Barnsley though!

« Maison du Biere « is grammatically incorrect. I know about these things

Seriously though the New market building is impressive. Was surprised to find it in Barnsley.

We tend to use Wakey mostly but will have to give the new Barnsley a go. Heard decent things to be honest.

In the same way you wouldn’t recognise Hiroshima if you hadn’t visited since April 1945 then went back for another look in September after Enola Gay’s little boy had dropped in for a visit.

(Joking aside, I’ve heard good things about the revamp)

 

[bakeblade]

I heard that Nottingham Forest were given an extra 500 tickets when they agreed to bring their own stewards along.

At £36 quid I'm surprised they are not trying to sell more. And away fans moan at our prices.

This is true, but if SYP have any say I can't see it happening for this game unfortunately.

In the same way you wouldn't recognise Darnall or the Manor if they cleaned the streets.

I thought that was always closed anyway? I’m sure it has been whenever I’ve been to Oakwell….or maybe I need to start wearing me glasses.

« Maison du Biere « is grammatically incorrect. I know about these things

Ah Cahill, you may be right (noted the tricouleur). From O level French and from many, many holidays in "La Belle", I think that both maison and biere are feminine nouns, so they are "la maison" and "la biere". Am I right in thinking it should be Maison de la Biere?? Or La Maison de la Biere?? Who's going to tell the otherwise brilliant beer emporium??

Allez les Lames!!!!

[BarnsleyBlade]

Quick update on this one, rumour is the game will be moved as there is an event on in Barnsley the same day. And no it's not the introduction of electricity or running water.

Barnsley Live is on 23rd mate.

before i start i like the ballot i think its a great idea. but this is ridiculous you cant say its sold out on 7th & we wont be getting any more allocation. you have got til the 10th to enter the ballot. then move the goalposts, & say we have a further allocation of seats & the ballot is closed on 8th

that the people in the ballot have priority, but because i did do it in 12 hrs when i had 3 days. i should be in front of the queue, now because utd cant make their mind up, i'll miss on a ticket
