    Can’t be British/Irish.
    Permanent or long term loan (ie Not Jan Molby)

    1. Clint Marcelle
    Just for that goal more than anything else. Will go down in history as the man who clinched promotion.

    2. Heinz Muller
    In my period of being a Barnsley fan, I’ve not seen a GK as good as Heinz. Dominated his area and some outstanding individual performances. Shame about his injury as it really wasn’t the same afterwards.

    3. Arjan De Zeeuw
    Was a toss up between him and Anderson Da Silva. The fee we paid for an unknown centre back from Telstar ended up being a bargain. Had a fantastic debut and turned out to be a fantastic player for us as well as other clubs.

    Clint Marcelle for 26.04.1997 I thank you
    Arjan de Zeeuw Brilliant for the reds and possibly because of that, gave us confidence to keep looking for talent abroad
    Jovo Bosancic Fantastic in the centre of midfield alongside Redders in the promotion season

    In fairly recent times De Zeeuw. Real bargain. Definitely a PL defender.

    Do you mean István Ferenczi? I liked him, a great signing. Just the sort of centre forward we need right now

    Not the best but honourable mentions for Anderson De Silva, Emil Hallfreðsson and Bogdanovic although the latter left in an unsavoury fashion.

    yes that’s exactly who I meant. I just called him Stan.

    I also think Dominik Werling just for hit shooting power

    Hugo Colace, if only for his endless attempts to come back.

    Amazed Denis Souza never gets a mention in these discussions, seemed to win man of the match every week in that period circa 2008-2010. solid in the air, good on the floor was just a shame he wasn't a yard or too quicker.

    Fantastic goal record for us, 45 in 105. And every other club he played for. More than 1 every 2 games during his career. 217 in 425.

    During my time. There have been some fantastic foreign players.
    The most outstanding. Beating British contenders as well. Muller.
    Only Foreigner, given a spot in my all time BFC Xl. Team.

    Jan Aga and De Zeeuw probably my other 2 of 3.
