Barnsley have been bought by the UN? Didn't think that was in their remit.

Wonder what their stance on fan share ownership and participation in the board would be.

I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,

I see one of the new owners is Billy Beane of Moneyball fame. It's an interesting film if you haven't seen it.
