    If these owners got full control of the Oakwell site it would probably mark the end of football in the Oakwell area of town and lead to either groundsharing (Rotherham, Doncaster, Huddersfield, Hillsborough ?)and/ or the construction of a cheap soulless bowl similar to the Keepmoat, financed by a loan serviced by the club, on an industrial estate miles away from Barnsley centre.

    My message is--Do Not Trust Conway. Those that hang on his every word and blow warm smoke up his arse will be very disappointed and betrayed.
    Am not trusting them wi ground,god forbid we went under,we'll still av ground if we set up again,dont think it can be sold to recover money,isnt that the idea of council owning it,a thought it wa but am not 100per cent.

    The spirit of many Reds fan's ? Who have fallen for this consortium amazes me , a proud town being taken over for greed at our football club ? Having been a part of the club in the 70s scouting /player watching , with Scouts and Rimmo , Winnie , I'm totally disappointed with some responses, I'm certain Norman and Eric would feel the same , shame on some that think they know , but obviously don't !! Ciao for now ,

You will end up disappointed ,
    So yer saying …… Hayselden, John Kelly , Chris Harrison owned the club?
    And if they didn’t - then who did ?

    The shareholders owned it , the shares were owned by fans for generations .

    The director's and chairman were shareholders too but they were elected to manage the club on the shareholders behalf and could be replaced if they didn't do a good job at election time .
