    Been in a few home ends. Oldham, Accrington, Salford come to mind. Never a problem, until the last visit to Salford……but that was perhaps due to the unbridled, yet totally understandable exuberance of a friend (on here) when we scored to win in the 94th minute!

    You sound like you a more of an aficionado than me ;). Tbh i am not really a fan of cask ale at all, much prefer German style pilsner but it looks like there will be more than enough fizzy stuff on keg to keep me happy! I am there for the vibes really, never been on a steam train either so it feels like a cool twist to getting to the different venues. Should be a lot of fun, but hope Barnsley / City is equally enjoyable!

    Enjoy the festival. Try things you normally wouldn’t or can’t readily get access to.
    A few festivals do ‘tasting’ thirds i.e. a third of a pint. You can get through more.
    Two tips, ‘Berocca’ with half and half water, pure orange before you set off. Second is have a slug of water after each pint.
    I will have a customary couple of excellent pints of draught hand pulled beer, pre the Barnsley match, to which all 6 in the group are attending, Herr Ticket Meister!

    Many clubs forums say they are….Utter nonsense unless one is a Barnsley fan with a BD post code or have an unlikely history of buying tickets for VP.

    Can’t think who you mean. And it was a small gesticulation, not unbridled exuberance!

    I’ve just noticed Barnsley aren’t playing today either which is good, I was worried we maybe rusty but hopefully no more so than them now.

    Honest guv, It was just a small jump in my seat and a fist clench. Might also have been a muted “yessss”. And I shut up as soon as I realised I’d done it. In no way was I giving it large to the Salford fans.

    I knew some Sheffield Wednesday fans and used one of their season tickets.

    Alot going on this weekend...

    Apparently Luton enquired about GA but put off by the 6 figure release clause (Nixon) - so went Wilshire.

    Grayson sacked by Hartlepool
    Bower sacked by Guiseley
    Smallwood getting Tranmere pelters.

    I'm always very sceptical of anything he says and "enquired" could mean anything from wanting to find out what it would cost to get him and see if he is interested to they saw him as number 1 target.
    That being said I do think it was another reason why we gave Alexander a new contract in the summer as it will have included a higher release clause than his original deal which gives the club a little extra security.

    Couldnt see GA leaving us for another L1 club, if they were still Championship may have had a battle, plus a club he played 200 times for.
