Long may it remain “Oakwell”Another ground I'd never been to.
We saw plenty of car parks in the region of £2-3, which was vastly cheaper than the £7-10 expected at stadiums in the Premier League.
Opposite is the classic looking West Stand, part of which dates back to 1904.
I followed the fans and then headed for the nearby at the bus station. The old stand to our right, the East Stand I think, is a grotty affair and it slightly resembled the Main Stand at Edgeley Park, Stockport. Newcastle winning the game 2-0 was a bonus. It also has old-style corner floodlights too.
As it was, us away fans were accommodated in what could only be described as a large sports hall, complete with those multicoloured markings on the floor which nobody ever uses for anything. Tickets for our Yorkshire Derby against Leeds United at Oakwell are now on sale. The Doncaster team applauded the visiting fans as they left the pitch.
All very friendly and a decent pint in both pubs.I was not impressed with the away stand, it seemed very old fashioned.The visitors parking is just across the road from the ground and getting away was very easy.As a side, who have played in the Premier League, and more recently the Championship, but with a modest budget, I found the stadium to be quite good, and something a Barnsley fan could definitely be proud of.We went straight to the ground but the locals we met were very friendly.We took a stroll into the Metrodome leisure complex where security, although quite visible, seemed quite relaxed about letting us in the building to have a drink and a bite to eat in their restaurant and bar area.The second half continued in a similar disappointing vein except the chances seemed to fall more Barnsley’s way, and they took a deserved equaliser some 15 minutes or so before the death. In the second half, there was more attacking play by both teams, with the away side having the better chances, but neither side could find the back of the net, with the game ending goalless.
I just hope that we can sort out where we'll be playing next season.The game was a typical blood and thunder affair, with Wednesday getting a very well deserved 2-1 victory.
A simple walk from the station to the ground through rows of terraced houses, helpful stewards and police pointing the way.We set off at 12 noon on the coach and we were in Barnsley by 1:15 pm. It probably would be more comfortable with fewer fans.It was the first away day of 2018, and with 4,700 tickets sold for Wolves fans, it promised to be a great atmosphere as Nuno’s men went in search of three more points in their quest for promotion. Upon entering the stadium, there is a large outdoor section, in which the away fans were congregated, with a fan base of over 4,000, this mean there was ample room to maneuver when entering the stand. As Barnsley had given us a large allocation of 5,900, I was able to get a ticket. Assisted by Cauley Woodrow following a fast break. Pork pies sold on match days. Recommended for any fans.Straight back onto the coach, and back at Molineux by half seven.
The ground is modern and provided excellent sight lines, and the game was entertaining as ever, the fans were extremely friendly and overall was one of my favourite away games watching Everton in the UK for a long time.Walked to the Joseph Bramah, a Wetherspoons pub where already a lot of Newcastle fans had gathered. I caught the 10:45 to the bus station in Barnsley (which incidentally) is joined to the train station as well.
