Nick will be buzzing next week...his (and Hawley; Jarvis a little, probably not Mark or Candy's thing) team have just completed the greatest comeback that the football Play-Offs have ever seen. They lost 4-0 to Peterborough last week and tonight in the return game at Hillsborough, somehow recovered that deficit and have just won on penalties!
Yeah, it was only the semis! Either Bolton or Yorkshire rivals, Baaarnsley await. Did Pulp ever play there?
Jarvis took the piss out of Leeds on-stage before, I seem to recall.
The only Barnsley reference that comes to mind is when promoting Further Complications on 6Music on Marc Riley's show (incidentally, Lard has just hosted his last in-session 6 show, the powers that be have bundled him and Gideon Coe as co-hosts on reduced hours), Riley asked Jarvis what it was like working with Steve Albini before doing a hilarious "Albini if he was from Yorkshire" accent. To which Jarvis replied, "Why do you think he's from Barnsley?!".

Thats incredible. I didnt bother watching that as I thought it was a done deal. I was hoping to see the mighty Os play the Owls next season.

I wasn't going to listen as I just thought it would be depressing, but saw it was 2-0 at half time, so 2 more in the second half would level the game. Apparently Darren Ferguson is moaning about the goal scored in Fergie time. Listened to the extra time on TalkSport and kept refreshing Twitter madly through the penalties, which was well ahead of the commentary and a lot less stressful. We had an epic semi against Brighton a few years ago and lost a bit meekly in the final to Hull. Don't want to play Barnsley, sounds like a real banana skin that. Apparently Darren Moore has been playing them videos of epic comebacks all week to get them psyched up, so maybe he can even conquer Barnsley.
We had it on in the car on the way home from Yorkshire. Husband was very concerned I might crash the car if they scored, so luckily it was very dull until the very last second. Seemed very harsh on poor Barnsley, but I'm not going to worry about that now, we did finish 10 points above them.

Pleased for them and bet Nick esp was on a high after past few days - never had anything against Wednesday (or United for that matter), though as a fan of a different English club that often plays in the same league, I couldn't bring myself to wear that Bands FC t-shirt, brilliant though it is.
