Investigation conducted after concerns over online posts

Barnsley are trying to end a new front-of-shirt sponsorship agreement with a cryptocurrency site after an investigation into discriminatory and abusive social media posts.

The League One club announced the deal with HEX.com last week but are already seeking to terminate it after their supporters’ trust raised concerns over online posts, which it believed had come from individuals who claimed to have brokered the deal.
