    In a bar in Cologne and with a group of England fans talking to Slovenia fans. When I said I was a Barnsley fan first one said do you remember the a Slovenian player who played in English premier league. When I said yes Ales Krizan he was delighted.

    He is probably the only one from his country to have done so. £450,000 we wasted on him. Very poor recruitment that season with obvious exceptions - Barnard, Ward and Fjortoft successful while we chucked money down the drain on the likes of Tinkler and Hristov.

    Hristov was ok, just unlucky with injuries.

    I rated Hristov. Took his time to settle butthat was to be expected. And Krizan did OK!

    Fairly certain Robert Koren played in the Premier League, either for West Brom or Hull.

    I think he did yes but my point was that splashing so much on the three I mentioned was just poor recruitment, irrespective of how unlucky they were with injuries. Opportunity wasted because we might have survived at least one more season with a bit more luck all round, and less biased/incompetent refereeing

    When you think of the media/press sh*it stirring, and stitching a player up... Georgie got dogs abuse for allegedly saying negative things about the women in Barnsley. :eek:
    I don't believe he ever said that!.

    Very unlucky with injuries

    I suppose it depends which website you believe. I’ve just checked 3 and none of them quote anything like 50 appearances

    I thought Ales Križan was a decent player for us. We were torn apart by some top players that season, but I think he was a better defender than Scott Jones, he just didn’t score some important goals.
    I thought we looked decent with Križan, De Zeeuw, Moses.

    Ahhh yeah that's when he scored, and then got double booked (sent off) for swearing at the officials!. :eek:
    I wonder what he said to them.
