    Much like the Boro goal. Except with a beard in a blue kit.

    Without doubt the most gifted footballer I've ever seen in a Barnsley shirt. The problem was his work ethic was horrific.

    Absolutely spot on. His technique was phenomenal. I remember watching Soccer Saturday seeing Iain Dowie say that McCourt could nutmeg a mermaid and beat a man in a phone box. Unreal natural ability.

    It didn't matter where McCourt had the ball for us, I was on the edge of my seat expecting him to pillock a defender and create something out of nothing. To this day I've never seen anyone quite like him in a Reds shirt.

    I miss him and the spark he provided despite his faults.

    Loved mccourt we lost a fantastic player because everyone in the team has to be a work horse and get stuck in.

    Great goal but he didn't immediately run off the pitch, spew up and get subbed, so not quite as iconic as his goal v Boro.

    I loved Paddy. He's amongst the most skillful players I've ever seen play for Barnsley and one of my all time favourites. Unfortunately, he was the right player at the wrong time.

    Wilson should have played him more. Miles better than that pillock Shea!
