    Or maybe abit too extreme, you decide....

    Subject of Bobby Hassel.
    Though it would be a great idea for thought that when he leaves Barnsley Fc (Depending on what terms).

    Would it be a good idea to retire the number 2 shirt when he leaves?

    Been a brilliant servant for the club, just under five years weve had him.
    Been through the thick and thin of it, same as most fans.
    Good role model to any kid coming through the Academy.
    Always performs to satisfactory +.
    Adapted to play well in two positions.
    Never comes across as a show pony refering to likes of Brian Howard.
    Played in the lower leagues and is now a good strong championship player.

    And to get back and clear that off the line against Wednesday was rarther exceptional and tops it off for me.

    Ive noticed some other clubs have retired some of their numbers in good memeory of past popular players.

    Or maybe I am just jumping the gun.

    Bit extreme .... he's a great player but

    I don't even think he'd be in my best Barnsley 11 that I've seen in watching Barnsley over the last 30 years

    Perhaps when he leaves all staff at the club should have a picture of him tatooed on their foreheads.

    Tyrone (what happened to him?) hated Bobby with a passion

    RE:Variation - Why wait until they leave?

    I'd be happy if we retired the number 9 shirt right now! :D

    I don't think you go far enough

    If he ever leaves we should shut down the club.
