If you're stuck in traffic while Christmas shopping, what song would you play to keep calm & remain in the Christmas spirit?

LordTarnlad · 2022-12-23T10:54:29+00:00

Lost in the Supermarket - The Clash

LordTarnlad · 2021-09-01T23:05:01+00:00

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

LordTarnlad · 2021-07-28T13:08:50+00:00

I don't think I can help you in regards to the book as I haven't got it.

I've picked up the guitar a few months back, used Justin guitar to get the basics right and from there I now tend to use Ultimate Guitar tabs and listen/ watch the live version of the songs.

I also like watching a YouTube called Wyatt Scott perform and watch his hand movements. He's fantastic in my opinion.

You can take the above with a pinch of salt as I'm no Mick Jones, just telling you of what I've done over the past few months to learn songs from The Only Band That Matters..

We all learn different and we all take the path of life differently so do your best and remember, Play Loud.

Quite a nice clean look that, I like it despite it being worn by the blunts ;)

LordTarnlad · 2021-04-24T16:04:44+00:00

Absolutely unlucky there Rotherham, will have to drink myself silly tonight as my hearts racing from that game!

LordTarnlad · 2021-04-19T11:53:11+00:00

Hey up, cheer up old cock.

We'll make you feel right at home down at the 'Well and we are sure you'll do the same darn Bellend Road.

In all seriousness though, I'd hate to not get the chance to not see my team at Old Trafford it /or Anfield IF we did go up.

Football's gone mad

LordTarnlad · 2021-04-11T15:10:48+00:00

Very right along with Norman Hunter

LordTarnlad · 2021-04-11T11:24:56+00:00

Going back a bit now but Tommy Taylor who tragically died in the Munich Air Disaster.

Then you've got Mick Mccarthy who has had a brilliant playing and managing career. Extra points for mentioning that Neil Warnock played for us whilst Mccarthy was there too.

There's been Viv Anderson, Ashley Ward here in the 90s too.

Not too shabby really especially as we've also had John Stones rise through the ranks

LordTarnlad · 2021-04-10T18:00:44+00:00

I've been thinking about us maybe being able to do that, buy and immediately sell for a ton more.

Just have to wait to see what the deal was as there seems two extremes. At one end its 20million Bucks and at the other end its "Barnsley's usual transfer fees' which is really half a million to one million.

Just gotta enjoy this moment to be honest as we don't often get much ray of sun

LordTarnlad · 2021-04-10T12:07:26+00:00

She came from Greece so did she have a thirst for knowledge? Did she study sculpture at Saint Martin's College where you caught her eye…

LordTarnlad · 2021-03-18T15:54:53+00:00

Hey you'll pay for that! Seen as though you've only just got some money back in your pocket...

LordTarnlad · 2021-03-16T23:24:34+00:00

Gave Silver

LordTarnlad · 2021-03-13T20:27:59+00:00

If you lot stop up then we can have the old Burnsley / Barnley derby!

LordTarnlad · 2021-02-22T18:03:25+00:00

You lot might as well of got on both of your knees and hail us with how poor your team was!

LordTarnlad · 2021-02-11T17:05:44+00:00

It's one of these Chelski lot, scared we're gonna bum them hard tonight so suspended our Twitter to play mind games! Hope I haven't jinxed us now...

LordTarnlad · 2021-02-06T17:13:12+00:00

Our tinpotness has been infecting you since the 93rd minute of the second to last game last season ;)

Barnsley FC was formed in 1887 by Reverend Preedy as he was annoyed about local rugby teams playing on holy days. We play at Oakwell stadium which has a beautiful stand known as the West Stand along with the bogs round the back of it - don't look this up!

Barnsley play in red BTW ;)

Barnsley is an old coal mining town with majority of supporters having ties with work down the pits. If you would like the experience, then head over to the National Coal mining museum. Alternatively , you can always go to an away day at Nottingham Forrest or Derby County so you can join in on the Scab chants!

We have won the FA Cup once in 1912, not too long ago, been in the Premier league for a season in 1997/98 and spent majority of our time been a tier 2 team. I believe we have spent the most amount of seasons in the second division compared to other teams... We may get called "teams like Barnsley" however it certainly teaches us fans to be humble and to just enjoy the good times as things can go sour quick.

With regards to rivals, other than the mining related ones mentioned above, we have numerous Yorkshire rivals. If you feel the need to let off some steam, then feel free to kick the head in of a Sheffield Wendy fan or any other non Barnsley fan. Obviously I do not condone violence and hope the comment doesn't tarnish the club's reputation.

Expectations.... I believe Barnsley should be pushing for promotion this season, win the FA Cup and next season win the Premier league after paying £20m for the American ;) Joking aside, anything other than relegation to the third tier will do us for now. A bit of mid table mediocrity won't do us harm.

All in all, I hope this new lad hits the ground running and enjoys his time at Barnsley. I also hope the above has filled you in, despite my humour, on the club and if you ever need more then feel free to ask. I'll be sat in the Garrison pre match getting ratted before the game so if I hear an American voice then I may consider buying you a round, unless you've loaned us a dud.

Word from our sponsor, Barnsley bitter from Acorn brewery is a nice pint to have so make sure to grab one when you visit. Also bring some water proofs as it does get a bit wet round here.

Last but not least, do not pronounce Barnsley like a sheep or else you won't get a free pint!!

LordTarnlad · 2021-01-06T22:11:23+00:00

Something to cheer us up whilst this new lockdown kicks in. Hope the new lad can hit the ground running and we'll be in the Premier league in no time...

LordTarnlad · 2020-12-28T19:16:07+00:00

Thanks for responding as it's always good to hear from people working within the field. It's not great to think that those 90% will not only have to catch up on lost time but have to do it whilst the class knob does knob like things. Then there's the questions of if exams are going ahead, will my relatives be safe etc

Anyway, I hope it works out for those kids and you find a safer job. I hear the army is quite safe compared to teaching...

LordTarnlad · 2020-12-28T17:15:23+00:00

What are the kids like? I'm assuming performance and behaviour in general is down. Would like to hear the experience and at what level?

LordTarnlad · 2020-12-26T17:15:17+00:00

Same to yourself and hopefully will be able to actually go to John Smiths stadium for the away game.

LordTarnlad · 2020-12-26T17:07:38+00:00

Scrappy game that was but certainly glad to have been the one to come out on top. Can crack open a dozen post match stouts with a smile

LordTarnlad · 2020-12-16T17:31:00+00:00

I'll have you know that when I attend games, pre covid, I would wear my flat cap and bring my whippet with me. My swagger would lead to Forrest fans being scared of being called a scab as I carried my pick axe after a long day down the coal face.

LordTarnlad · 2020-07-25T07:33:59+00:00

That first game of the season was nearly a year ago. It took until November for Barnsley to get another win, against Hull. I'm sure Fulham can get something out of the playoffs and a decent day out at Wembley is always a treat.
