RE: I'll pass on that poll thanks. It'll be seen as being "negative". nt Go on, Rigters, you know it makes sense. Join the darkside
half as many people think your a moron as think odejayi is our "worst ever" striker. perhaps start watching the reds for a few years! you'll see some truely awful strikers but most fans actually get behind our team. Oh and statistics mean nothing. sure you're actually not a moron
Not really a poll about the worst in our history is it? More like the last 5/10 years...seems like a pretty pointless poll.</p> KO is better than Tommy Wright for starters, what about that postie who scored the goal at Ipswich (Evans was it?). Plus there's Mike Turner, and that's still only in the last 10 years. No doubt we've had worse when we've been in the old 4th division or something? </p>
RE: Not really a poll about the worst in our history is it? no doubt we've had more strikers than you can count over the years that couldn't hold a candle to Odejayi and wouldn't be fit to lace his boots. By FAR, not the worst we've ever had - nonsense poll.
Hasn't Leon Knight got to be up there aswell? He did piss all while on loan? (dunno) Wait for it... 'Another negative post, boo, pessimistic' etc etc (blagger).
I'm telling you now We have had MANY far worse players who have played up front than Odejayi. You're only showing either: a) youth or b) ignorance Simples.
Without question we have And I really don't want to start slagging off Kayode as he gets enough stick. However, in my opinion, Kayode is the worst striker we've had for the level we are playing who has played so many games. We've had some real stinkers like the infamous Willie ferry, Mike Turner, Andy Evans, Dave Regis and many others, but they are only played for a few games before everyone realises they are utter ***** and they disappear without a trace. Kayode Odejayi has over seventy games for Barnsley to his name scoring just 5 goals. And it's not like he's created many goals either. I challenge anyone to name a striker who has played so many games for Barnsley who has been that ineffectual.
People like to have ago at odi on here but would not to his face Jay you say doesn't create but if you look back on the video thing on bbc sports he creates chances fr macken by upsetting there defenders. You can create things in a different way. by wither passing the ball or causing the defence unrest. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/b/barnsley/default.stm
I'm not denying he has had helped create some goals Just not many. And you're right, I wouldn't have a go at Kayode to his face. Not because I'm scared of him, although I'm sure he could kick the **** out of me if he was so inclined, but because I wouldn't dream of being so rude. If I saw him to talk to I'd say hello and wish him all the best. At the games I try to give him encouragement. But if asked my honest opinion of him as a footballer I have to say that I don't think he's very good at this level.
Jay people shout stuff from the stand but would never say it too him and that really gets me mad. People use the fact that there is people around them to hide them self but shout stuff when hes not looking. people just need to get behind him. Hes not even missed a one on one this season and people still say stuff.
