    To be fair I'd rather be anywhere but se London that weekend.

    Bit of a long shot, but I won the auction for 2 people to attend and be entertained in the director box, and we chose Barnsley, we are thinking of bringing the wife / fiancée with us, problem is they don't fancy going to the game.

    My question is can anyone recommend a spa hotel within taxi drive of Barnsley? So they can enjoy themselves whilst we get some bonus points and much earned peace?

    @CharltonKerry - if you google Burntwood Court, Barnsley that might do you.

    Thanks addick up north, will have a look, always better to have a recommendation then take a guess.

    Thats unbelievable I have been looking for that hotel since we won the auction, we done a major project in Barnsley and my engineers kept going on about how great it was (they normally stay in premier inns so anything is luxurious) and I stayed there a few times and enjoyed myself. Don't matter what I typed in the search engine it didn't come up or I didn't recognise it, thanks very much addick up north, think we will be making a revisit. Do you know if its the hotel where they have the school balls?

    Yeah hudds last week was so cold my 11 year old wore my gloves on her feet!! Anyway Barnsley is a decent away day, with a vocal loyal support. Not many glory hunters there and very few consider themselves to be massive :).

    Has the club offered to subsidise the tickets and travel yet? Would be the sort of gesture to start winning back some lost goodwill. Should I be holding my breath?

    On the 9:55 up there, if you're quick, then at Sheffield you can get the 12:06 to Barnsley instead of waiting for the 12:18, although theres only 5mins interchange time at Sheffield for that one.

    Yep - a few of us going. Staying in a nice little pub outside of Barnsley and sinking a few sherberts before and after.
