that doesn't mean to say his best years at oakwell were better than taylors or blanchflowers years at oakwell, they went on to be world greats look at taylors record for scoring goals at oakwell thats why teams like man utd and spurs were watching them,. their performances at oakwell caught there fancy. when redders played for barnsley no one sang his name till promotion season even that year songs were mainly about danny wilson and promotion.i'm sorry but neil redfearns legend is wrapped up with promotion season i can only compare him with ronnie glavin and in my opinion and judging by the fans reaction in their respective era's Ronnie Glavin comes out on top.as for tommy taylor and danny blanchflower i didn't see them so i can't say.
Tommy Taylor went from barnsley commanding the worlds record transfer fee at that time and that from a struggling team at the time he must have had something going for him to be aknowledged by arguably the best team in the world at that time.
Tommy Taylor caught the eye of arguably the best manager in the world and arguably the best team in the world and commanded a world record transfer fee.all that coming from a team that at the time were struggling seems as though he was some player before he left barnsley.and he didn't want to leave BFC to boot.
