Steele has established himself at the Oakwell No 1 ahead of Tony Warner, who was signed after Heinz Muller was injured and ruled out for the rest of the season.

Warner has returned to Fulham. His loan spell ended yesterday. He played three games for Barnsley.

Steele, who is only 23, became an instant Barnsley hero with his performance in the FA Cup tie win at Liverpool. He has won the player of the round award for that and part of his prize is to be on the VIP guest list at Wembley for the Cup Final.

A VIP guest at the cup final?

What are they going to do? Have a runner come onto the pitch with beer and snap whilst play is up the other end?
