The Really Early 'FredManRave Made Me Do It' Barnstoneworth United Match Thread 11:22 - Mar 1 with 34583 viewsDorse

It was 1874 and Zebediah Ivanhoe Scrimshaw was reeling after being laid off from Bickerthwaites Clog Factory after 10 years service.
'Unemployed. On t'scrag 'eap at the age o' 17' he sighed to Hector his faithful whippet as he trudged wearily down roads that would later be copyrighted by Hovis.* Even putting another ferret down his trousers couldn't lift his gloom. It helped but only briefly. It were no good. He'd heard that a young man of action could make his fortune down int' that there London - mebbe there'd be a place for a lad such as him, a hearty cherub of a lad with only a hint of tuberculosis, a squint and an orthapaedic clog. He packed his bag, said goodbye to his 19 siblings and got onto the first train South...

Today, visitors from Barnsley are equally as dazzled by the sights, sounds and smells of that there London. The running water. The electricity. The complete lack of incesant brass band music. It all adds up to a heady assault on the senses. And yet, the hopes and dreams of Zebediah Ivanhoe Scrimshaw are still very much evident in the coal-streaked faces of the Barnsley team that come looking for fame, glory or a chip and gravy barm cake. As manager Valerian Ismael says 'It'd be easer for a Grimethorpe pigeon fancier t' gerrint Belper whippet racin' club'house than t' gerra win theer'.

2-0 Rangers.



* Even though they were actually in Shaftesbury.

They're pretty decent, aren't they?


They're very good. Best we've seen this season I think.

Great free kick. Very entertaining game so far!
We're good enough to come back again but will be hard work, can't drop off the tempo

That's quite a throw from Dykes.

There’s a suggestion that if you don’t give the ball away cheaply every fking 2 minutes, the more you have the ball and the less likely the other team can score

Straight at the keeper, very useful

And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles Brian Moore

Was that long throw from Dykes? It was colossal!

If Liverpool play heavy metal football, then Barnsley's is thrash metal. It's relentless.

"Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1."

Yeah but Carroll doesn't tackle so he's worthless.

Hilarious scene: Cameron towering over the ref repeatedly telling him he didn't touch his man, who went down leading Chuckles Woolmer to - incorrectly- give a foul

Off the post, ref decides that was too close to a goal and gives them a freekick

We have no pace at all so it won’t make a difference

Their forward Dike and Mowatt would walk into our team. Both very good players.
