A LIFELONG Reds supporter will receive a tribute at tomorrow’s local derby with fans being urged to ‘lift the roof off Oakwell’ for a minute’s applause in his memory.
On the seventh minute of the game against Sheffield United, thousands of Barnsley fans are being encouraged through a social media campaign to take part in the round of applause for Ian ‘Lobby’ Moore, of Bainton Drive, Kingstone.
Ian, 47, was found dead on the Trans Pennine Trail off Tank Row at Stairfoot last Thursday. Police said they do not believe his death to be suspicious.
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."
