It was 1874 and Zebediah Ivanhoe Scrimshaw was reeling after being laid off from Bickerthwaites Clog Factory after 10 years service.
'Unemployed. On t'scrag 'eap at the age o' 17' he sighed to Hector his faithful whippet as he trudged wearily down roads that would later be copyrighted by Hovis.* Even putting another ferret down his trousers couldn't lift his gloom. It helped but only briefly. It were no good. He'd heard that a young man of action could make his fortune down int' that there London - mebbe there'd be a place for a lad such as him, a hearty cherub of a lad with only a hint of tuberculosis, a squint and an orthapaedic clog. He packed his bag, said goodbye to his 19 siblings and got onto the first train South...
Today, visitors from Barnsley are equally as dazzled by the sights, sounds and smells of that there London. The running water. The electricity. The complete lack of incesant brass band music. It all adds up to a heady assault on the senses. And yet, the hopes and dreams of Zebediah Ivanhoe Scrimshaw are still very much evident in the coal-streaked faces of the Barnsley team that come looking for fame, glory or a chip and gravy barm cake. As manager Valerian Ismael says 'It'd be easer for a Grimethorpe pigeon fancier t' gerrint Belper whippet racin' club'house than t' gerra win theer'.
2-0 Rangers.
* Even though they were actually in Shaftesbury. |  |

There's clearly a real division of opinion here, I think that is the worst 45 minutes of football I've seen this season. They are unwatchable and we're letting them do it. |
No I am with you , but its effective and we have to deal with it . |  | | |

Laughable. Wallace f*cks up the cross and they storm down the other end. Amateur hour. | | | |

We are more kick and rush than them just not as effective. We haven't got the ball down and played any football. Is that credit to them or we just poor tonight |  | | |

Shite goal to give away, that. Tough game at Bristol City on Saturday too so could easily be 4 without a win in the blink of an eye... | |

Naive as hell
We have spent 10 minutes just kicking the ball up in the air like a bunch of 8 year old kids
And got done by a sucker punch
Out fought , out paced , and out thought
Crap |  |
| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

I think we've been sucked into playing their game, and we don't have the speed to match it. | | | |

Playing shit, deserve a beating. Just keep hoofing it up for their defence to easily clear it. |  | | |

Total admiration for Barnsley, a lesson in how to get the best out a set of ordinary players. |  | | |
