Cryne made his money selling the NHS an I.T. system that never worked properly.
Then he got cancer and needed the NHS.
Was always amusing seeing all the so-called socialists on the Barnsley fan sites bigging him up.

Tony Stewart may get a little carried away with some of his comments regarding the Millers but Patrick Cryne was a bare faced liar .
His explanation in front of a room full of supporters at a forum when grilled on the paltry amount of money we initially received from Everton for John Stones was remarkable , remarkable that he thought anyone would believe him .
A man of very questionable character , to say the least .
He would have been in court if he hadn't got ill.
Most Barnsley fans loved him though even though the ones online all seem to call themselves socialists, against Tories, against NHS privatisation etc yet they always defended Cryne, a Tory who made loads of money out of the NHS.
Both myself and Exiletyke never fell for it Fire , we've both run the gauntlet with our views of Patrick Cryne on our own board .
You should the fecking flag they had made when he passed away , big stupid chuffin thing permanently on display in the west stand lower .
I'm not concerned with his funding of the tory party , it's what wealthy people do .
My views of the bloke are football focused and the way he treated people at the club and the lies he told .
Rick Holden who was assistant to Andy Ritchie wrote a very good book on his time at Oakwell , very scathing of the man and his way of doing things .
His family did extremely well from his ownership of our club whilst we saw every decent player sold and ended up back in league one as a consequence .
