    Did he score a hat trick against Scunny in the League Cup one time? game went to extra time.

    Anyway, one of whatever he scored was shockingly good. Kind of different planet football.

    Wondrous.

    I sleep with him most nights.

    In T-shirt form.

    We managed to sell him on the same day as Martin Gorry

    As well. That move by the Barnsley board was the first time I felt betrayed by the powers at Oakwell

    RE: Ah, memories

    Hard little player he was. Can't remember the exact game but it was an evening fixture, and we were walking down to the 'well when someone informed my cousin (who was taking me) that we'd sold Otulakowski and Gorry. There were a few mutterings that evening.
