REDS’ fan Martin Colman wants all Wembley bound fans not to forget an important item of clothing next weekend - their flat caps.
Barnsley play Oxford United in the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy final on April 3 and the rival fans have been engaging in banter on social media for weeks.
One Oxford commentator suggested all Barnsley folk knew was how to wear flat caps and breed whippets.
But rather than take offence at such nonsense Martin, a former town centre bobby thinks Barnsley fans should show a sense of humour and irony.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
