Three pages of oil and nobody's mentioned Derrick Parker. Disappointing... Edit. ******... Gimpson bet me to it.
If he’s the player I’m thinking of, he was quite highly thought of when he broke through at Hibs. Looks to have gone off the boil a little bit since then which is very much the kind of player we often look at. I think he should be decent at this level. Certainly would give us more options, which can’t be a bad thing.
Will he be living in Oiland common ? Bet I know what his introduction to the team Song is , in a kilt “ I’ve just come down from the Isle of Skye” On a serious note arguably Two of Barnsley’s best ever players have come from North of the Border Sir Ronnie and Johnny Kelly. Hope he is s half as good as either and we’ll have a great player on our hands .
He is from Derry. In Northern Ireland. And, as much as I admire Paddy, you can't have seen Ronnie play if you think McCourt is the best player we've signed from a Scottish club.
Whilst we still have better players on our books out on loan I find it hard to justify bringing players in that are of a lower standard.
