Minute's Applause For Barnsley Legends

Last updated : 25 January 2008 By Rob Miles (barnsley Boy)

Barnsley stalwarts Johnny Steele and Frank Moore will be remembered by a minute's applause prior to Tuesday's league game at Oakwell against Colchester United.

Steele, a former Barnsley player and longest-serving manager for 37 years and counting passed away on the 14th January aged 91, whilst Moore was the club's oldest fan when he died on Monday aged 102. Moore had followed The Reds since 1913 and had owned a season ticket for 80 years.

Both will now be fittedly admitted at Oakwell on Tuesday night. The players will also wear black armbands.
