WIG Guide to Video's, Books, Tape&CD

Videos / Books / Tape / CD

I have purchased all the below items from the club shop or local Asda at one time or another. I don't know what the club thinks about international orders or how much the postage will cost, your best bet would be to give them a ring or fax. You never know they may one day want to setup some internet sales division if they get enough orders.

From the perspective of some of the players and backroom staff of the period. Some pictures. A quote from the foreword by the then M.P. Mason in 1981 still seems to sum up Barnsley today even more so. page xiv "They (the board) have taken some exciting decisions, both in the appointment of managers and the provision of money to buy players. This has led to success on the field which has brought the return of crowds and an atmosphere inside Oakwell hardly seen since second division days."

Hallam FM Site Where you can buy a Limited Edition Tape of the Bradford Game.

It includes some of the key moments before the match itself, interviews with personalities before and after the match, and reaction from the open-top bus on its parade through the Town Centre. A tear nearly surfaced while listing to this. It's that good!

CD

We are Premier League

The Feedom Zone : £3.99 : 10 mins : 1997
A decent dancy tune that has been played before some matches. The best of the songs produced on promotion to the Premier. It doesn't make you cringe like some I could mention. Has the Blue Moon / It's Just Like Watching Brazil tune running through it.
