Hopefully he plays tonight and lets off some steam

Remember when Leeds almost changed their badge to this a few years back?

This was inspired by Sampdoria FC whose badge features a Yorkshire Terrier smoking a pipe whilst balancing a tiny bowler hat on his head. The Tykes loved this reference so much that they included a pipe in their latest badge change. Yorkshire clubs (outside of Sheffield) love changing their badges every few years due to their lack of association football heritage

Yeah, at the time I thought it had been given for a foul and I was certain there hadn't been a foul

What a load of nonsense!

Tonight is Barnsley's 5000th league game since 1887

I fear that would pretty quickly bring things to the boil

Ok so why is the griffin smoking a pipe?

I can’t get my head round this one.

Why’s the little dragon thing smoking a pipe whilst playing about with a roulette wheel?

Why is there not a single football on this badge yet clearly has 2 belt buckles??

And finally, what kind of dog is poking its head out of the little dragon’s arse? Can’t be a beagle it’s ears aren’t big enough.

Ok here is something random that could be of interest.

Following this link we can track the alleged value of the Danish lads.

Hagelskaer and Westergaard ranked at 328 and 332 respectively. It’ll be interesting to see them climb this table (hopefully).

Only a couple of hundred thousand euros though so it remains to be seen if we have had our pants pulled down.
