Barnsley fans accused of foul chants

Barnsley fans have been accused of shouting repulsive chants about Doncaster Rovers striker Billy Sharp's baby son, who died at just two days old.

The alleged chants took place during Doncaster's 2-0 victory over Barnsley at the Keepmoat Stadium yesterday.

Sharp tweeted: "I didnt hear anything apart from u fat sheffield reject, but I proved I wasn't fat for the 1st goal.

"But if there was a few people chanting that then I hope you're proud of yourself. I can't imagine anyone being so disrespectful."

Sharp and his girlfriend Jade lost their son, Luey Jacob, in October last year.
