We are delighted to announce that a settlement between Barnsley Football Club Ltd, BFC Investment Company Ltd and Oakwell Holdings Ltd has been reached, regarding the ongoing court case.

This litigation originated from a dispute concerning outstanding sums due for the purchase of the Club, and the terms of a call option regarding the purchase of Oakwell, which was incorporated in the original agreement at the time of change of control at the Club in December 2017.

The Cryne family (Oakwell Holdings Ltd), will be paid the full amount due but have agreed to a long-term payment plan with payments only beginning from August 2023 onwards.

All parties are delighted that all matters related to the court case are now resolved. The Club and the board look forward to working together with the Cryne family as trusted partners, for the betterment of the town and Club.
