I see we have been over exposed on TV today with 2 mins airtime on football focus and one sentence on sky spirts soccer Saturday. Unbelievable jeff.

Football focus? Hope they showed some terraced houses. Wouldn't be the same without.

Got an ear-worm now, Dvorac's Largo from the Hovis advert!

They never show "Barnsley" in a positive light.

Had a look at sky sports....saw it was Sherwood, Merson, Morrison and Bent...so changed channels pretty quickly, so no idea what was said about us, but looking at that lineup it wouldn't have been very insightful

over 700 thousand followers in Twitter, over half a million on Instagram - that's more than quite a few PL clubs. TV is over-rated !

No complaints from me. We are the new Leeds.

There was an item in the Sky build up just after lunch,stereo type though ,Peter Stevenson (Stephen’s) interviewing people in the club shop ,first fan had 2 devil type dogs which I wouldn’t have gone within a hundred yards of them,then 3 others interviewed,didn’t show any cobbled streets though.

Stelling on about cheating Harry Kane,1/2 sharp Merson saying it was the first thing he’d done wrong in 15 yrs,will be giving Gillette Soccer Saturday a wide berth next season,What with Merson,Darren Bent ,and the idiot from C Palace talking ********.

Paul Merson's somewhat one sided battle with the English language ....

Jeff : Did you enjoy flying to games, Mers ?
PM : Naw Jeff, 'ated it, always glad to get my feet down on Terra Cotta !

To be fair that's a battle with the Latin language.

I had the misfortune of seeing Merson at a function....safe to say he's thicker in real life than on the TV...I thought it might have been an act on the telly....but no

Sadly, it's the nature of the PL beast that few outside the UK will have any interest in the EFL. Hence why we need to be on that gravy train for as long as possible.

A shame, but that's the way it is.
