    Am I allowed to vote for Steve Morison? 34 years old and still head and shoulders above anything in a red shirt. If proof were needed that The Plan is fundamentally flawed, look no further.

    I would have gave it to the plastic Crawshaws carrier bag. Showed a good change of pace and found space.

    It was Thiam. He was presented with it in the Legends Suite after the game

    Are we talking about the carrier bag or the MotM award here?

    I thought he was our best player today though I’m damning with the praise so feint a Victorian lady would claim it.

    The award was free but he had to pay 5p for the bag.

    I thought he was at least vaguely threatening when he got the ball.

    Fair play to him though. I know its part of the job but it can't have been easy for a young lad walking in to the room after that team performance. Not helped by the bloke presenting basically took the piss out of the fact he's French before getting him on stage. Inevitably Thiam proceeded to speak better English than half the room, gave considered answers, and signed all the kids' autographs. Then a bloke asked him if he was going to drink his champagne and he said no and gave it to him.

    New cult hero.

    Cult hero? Based on what?! Being a nice lad off the pitch?

    Andy Rammell is a cult hero and was an infinitely better player than him.

    Based on his MoM presentation performance today! Surely a cult hero is an unlikely one, based on something unusual and unappreciated by the majority?

    Surely is based upon what they do on the pitch?!

    Not much chance of finding any on the pitch at the moment...

    Agreed. The clue is in the title. Man Of The MATCH.

    I’m pretty sure Ark was being tongue in cheek and saying that Thiam’s now a personal cult hero to him because he handled an awkward situation well. He’s not declaring him the best Barnsley player we’ve ever had.

    I didn’t think he was basing it on that

    He replied to you saying that it was based on his MoM performance.

    Yes, performance off the pitch. I didn’t think he was saying the one on it
