AshC Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 As some of you may know, and most probably don't, I'm a lifelong Barry Town supporter.  As a kid, I saw Barry play the likes of Porto, Dynamo Kiev, Boavista and Aberdeen in European competition.  See for yourself here - http://www.youtube.com/user/BarryTownSupporters  Fast forward a decade, and the current owner has decided to pull the team out of football completely, pocketing all money made my the on-site bar for himself, and killing off almost 99 years of history.  Obviously, we're not impressed - and we need as much help as possible to get this story in the public domain, firstly to expose the guy (a struck-off barrister, no less!) and secondly to hope it falls into the lap of someone with the cash and/or influence to save our football team.  We'd like to think that anyone who follows a sports team can relate to this story, and the misery it's brought the community in Barry.  Please follow the campaign at http://www.twitter.com/standupforbarry, the discussion hash-tag is #SaveBarryTownFC  Thanks for reading.  Ash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
