Barnsley should find out today if they are staying in the Championship after the outcome of Wigan’s appeal to have their - 12 point deduction overturned on appeal.
Not fair me thinks, as Wigan owners knew the spending rules simple as that.

Surely the same rules should be clear and adhered to by all clubs, otherwise it undermines the whole reason for having them in the first place?
Wigan have lost the appeal.
Think the appeal process cost them in the region of £500k just to compound the misery....obviously if they had stayed up on the field they would have withdrew it..but just goes to show the dangle of the championship revenue and must have thought they had good grounds for appeal...but I think it’s more of a decision for future cases more than anything..
Pleased that the Tykes are staying up. 3 South Yorkshire clubs in the Championship is good for the area. Hopefully, the derbies will be played before crowds and it would be really good to have them all at 3pm on a Saturday.
That 91st minute winner at Brentford on the last day was certainly worth a few bob
Yo Cammo lol, who is this Bob your on about, and why are there more than a few of him ?
Yes indeed, that goal after 91+ minutes at Brentford was/is absolutely massive lol.
But the winning goal in the previous game against Notts Florist, after 93+ out of 94 minutes, really did set us up in the first place.
Cammo, I dont have a problem with the Sheff Wensdy Fowls to be honest!.
BUT it does anger me how lucky they have been here, because maybe it is possible for them to catch up the -12 points.
Do I want them to stay up.. well Id rather see us play them than the likes of Qpr or Reading or Bristol City for example.
Do they deserve to stay up.. NO sir, they do not!.
Being a Tyke resident these days with a family full of their fans its happy days. Really pleased with the result which was the right one tbf. Barnsley away next season will be interesting that's for sure. Stepson works on the turnstiles at Oakwell lol. If we win the pub in the evening will be interesting cos I'm not one for keeping mi gob shut lol.
