Barnsley Football Club Supporters’ Trust have been told that these proceedings will not impact on the day to day running of the football club and supporting Gerhard Struber and the team ahead of preparations for a successful 2020/21 season. BFCST will continue dialogue with the club on all matters in the interest of supporters and publish updates accordingly.
