[BFC SITE] Sam Cosgrove joins Stockport County on loan

Barnsley Football Club can confirm that striker Sam Cosgrove has joined Stockport County on loan until the end of the season.

The former Aberdeen and Birmingham City player joined the Reds in September 2023 and has gone on to score 7 goals in 60 appearances, including three goals across both legs play-off semi finals against Bolton back in May.

Sporting Director, Mladen Sormaz said, “Sam’s contract expires in the summer and so this loan move may well signal the end of his time at Barnsley and on behalf of everyone at the Club I’d like to thank him for his professionalism and positive attitude during his time here.”

Fcukin joke.

 

He’s poor but why we letting him go to a team competing to get in the play offs?

They obviously think he adds something for them.

This club baffles me it really does.

 

Nailed on hat trick against us on Saturday

 

He can't play mate.

 

It would be just our luck for him to go there and score 10 before the end of the season.

 

Can't play on Saturday.

 

Because they'll have been the only ones willing to take him. Rather got shut than kept him round.

 

Oh fair enough

 

Id stipulate that he must play against us Saturday it might give us a chance .

 

All the best to him.

So we are as we were at the start of today. Still in need of a couple of strikers.

 

Indeed.

 

We are desperately short on strikers but I can honestly say, I’m delighted Cosgrove isn’t one of the options anymore. He’s been a massive disappointment.

I hope for his sake he does well and regains some of his form but my word, he offered us absolutely nothing when he played so it’s hardly much of a loss from our perspective.
