    Exactly Archey kid, and the obsession with Winnall & the Fowls especially, still continues on here.

    Somebody mentioned Chris O'Grady, Id forgot about him and that he went to Brighton for an allegedly better career and better money. Well he got the money of course, but he ended up at Burton a few years later so Im guessing he flopped at Brighton!!

    We sold CoG as we couldn't afford his wages. "ended up at Burton" didn't realise we'd turned all big time either

    Winnall was a good buy for Sheffield Wednesday they knew if they got Winnall from Barnsley it would stop Barnsley going for the play off's and upset the balance of the team, and it did, you can say what you want but we missed him.

    any first team
    It would never happen, but it is a pity that all transfer contracts involving regular 1st team players throughout the Premiership and football league could not include a mandatory clause that the player must play (x) minutes in the first season (equivalent to, say at least 10 games?? ) barring any serious injury/fitness issue with any attempt to invoke that excuse subject to independent medical and adjudication.
    That would stop 'bench warmer' purchases by rich clubs aimed at stifling the opposition rather than improving the team that sign the player. 'Bench warming' purchases IMHO stifle competition and reduce the match day experience fans of the club who lost the player.

    Best striker we have had since Shipperley and Dyer. That's a fact.

    Shame it ended the way it did and he will never be welcome at Oakwell again.

    We've a job on replacing him though.

    Obviously. He's gone from being a first team regular and scoring goals for fun to scoring nowt and now not even getting in the squad. Even you can see that as backwards

    Motivated by greed pure and simple but in the short career a footballer can expect, in fairness who can blame
    him. ? Like others that seemed to flourish at Barnsley re- Ward, Agnew, Howard, Hignett, Tyler et al the grass isn't always greener elsewhere.
    Winnall will be comfortably off in the future a status that in honesty we all really aspire to but as far as football goes he will be eventually consigned to the dustbin of history.

    Let's thank him for what he did in a Red shirt and leave it at that.
    As the great man Omar once penned
    " The moving finger writes and having written moves on." Nuff said.!

    Nobody has, he's just trying to be argumentative. Take off your blinkers about who and how he signed for that club, and you couldn't disagree he's the best striker we've had for years. No one comes close.

    Bradshaw is a considerably. Better all round player

    I grady ten times the player that Winnall was

    Nardiello and Hayes both much better

    I want my striker to score goals. None of those mentioned comes close to Winnall.

    Ignoring him as a man, as a player he was exceptional for us. We've missed him.

    Apparently. Sam Winnall is the best striker we've had in the best part of 2 years
