anyone going Barnsley?

[suttonranger]

was thinking about it as not been before, wondered what its like up there?

pubs to drink in - griefy? what the locals like? far from station? easy to get to from station? etc etc

i have seen the football grounds web site but wanted an R's view of their trip

cheers

never been by train but I am guessing about 15 minutes walk. Up the hill from the ground is the Metrodome (well signposted) which is a favourite haunt for the rangers fans, is friendly and is a sports/leisure centre wth swimming pool etc. from there its a few hundred yards walk down the hill to the away turnstiles.

Most of the locals are fine but they do have thier share of idiots so if you are walking to and from the station probably not the best idea to give it the big un unless you are part of a pack

I like Oakwell -- decent view etc.
It's 2 days before my 50th birthday, so will be a bit of a special one for me -- hope the team give me a good birthday present.

Would really, really love a signed shirt from Taarabt or Faurlin as a prezzie too, but I suspect a bunch of flowers nicked from Woolwich cemetery might be the most I'll get from hubby...
