    People say that football's boring,
    Ronnie Glavin's always scoring,
    Can you hear the Ponty roaring,
    Glavin is the King.

    Personally, I believe we need a physical centre forward more than anything so let's bring Tommy Taylor home :)

    And if we're putting sentiment aside then John Charles (can always move him back into defence when Obbi and Carlton are fit ;))

    Us: Redfearn. A guy with some balls and a considerable amount of ability. As most on here will know the chapter in his autobiography about Barnsley starts with something like "They say you should never fall in love with a football club.........."

    From anywhere: Eddie Gray by a country mile. The most entertaining and gifted player I've ever seen live.

    Hmm, having not read the title properly I'll have to withdraw Ashley Ward,
    Ronnie is the obvious answer but, given our team at the moment I'd probably still pick an out and out striker who could score enough goals and cause enough chaos in a front one or two to allow us to shore up an ailing and weak midfield.
    so.....Aylott, Geddis or Currie.

    We need a goalscorer, get George Robledo from ex-Barnsley point of view.

    Any player from that time period? Jimmy Greaves

    I'd sign unfit players. But who are only 2 weeks away.

    So goalie Bert Trautmann who broke his neck in the FA Cup final for Man City.

    He was German so any VISA issues shouldn't be an problem.

    But i wouldn't drop Collins. I'd put him in Devaneys u23s at the age of 35 then release him in January.

    The answer has to be and always will be Ronnie.
    Although Redders would be close behind

    Ronnie Glavin without a doubt.The greatest ever Barnsley player in my time and in my humble opinion.

    You can keep yer Pele & Maradona - Rotherham away in the first year after promotion in the Eighties is still the best Barnsley performance ever!
    Banger hat-trick and Ronnie with the other -pure magic!

    There's no doubt that Glavin could win games single handedly, but as things stand I'm looking for fight, passion, and all-out physicality. Has to be Ian Banks or Alan Little for me. Either will do.
