Well I wasn't at the game, but I'm sure I heard the commentary team mention his name.

 

I know..legend my arse.

Massive Heed though and scored two fantastic headers against Man U.

and the other was somebody from 1946 whos name i cant remember. he played 40 games for us i think.

 

RE: I know..legend my arse.

RE: I know..legend my arse.

Trevor Aylott, Derick Parker, Ian Banks, Rocket Ronnie, Bob Doyle, Mick Butler, Peter Springett, Barry Murphy, Ray McHale, Ali Miller, Larry May...... who would you like to see back ????

 

RE: you are kidding aren't you??????

Scott Jones was one of them there was one at the Donny game who was announced as a legend yet he'd only played about 30 games for us!

 

RE: I know..legend my arse.

Ian Banks was there a couple of weeks ago.

 

Les Lea

Player of the Year in 1976 and a brilliant winger. Still lives in Barnsley up on the Swaithe development behind White Cross.

Watson.

 

RE: I know..legend my arse.

Scott Jones was our best centre back in the Bassett era. If he'd been fit we would have returned to the Premier. Bassett was a total idiot getting rid of de Zeeuw, and thinking he could be replaced by the likes of Tuttle and Brown ffs. As for Barry Murphy being a legend - how many of you saw him play? He was adequate to say the least.

 

Spud played over 600 games for Barnsley

and he's made more appearances for the reds than any player in the 120 years of the club. Surely that qualifies him as a legend. Legend doesn't necessarily mean international standard.

 

RE: Spud played over 600 games for Barnsley

Barry Murphy has been one hell of a servant for Barnsley Football Club

 

If I remember correctly the other 'legend' yesterday was Walter Bennett who played up front with George Robledo in 1945/6? Must admit Walter was a new one on me (before mi time by a good 10 or 11 years) but he looked fairly sprightly for someone at 86.

The announcer made a mistake at the Donny game when he said Malcolm Graham had played for just one season, he actually played for about 5 or 6 years. But still, ne'er mind, 90% of the crowd wouldn't have a clue.

 

RE: I know..legend my arse.

If you dont think Spud is an oakwell legend then you dont know what being a Barnsley fan is all about....stick to watching Man Utd on Sky

 

RE: I know..legend my arse.

Seeing Peter Springett...................now that would be somthing as he has been dead for 3 years

 

If Spud Murphy is a Barnsley Legend and great servant what about Big Eric and Rimmo? Surely both the best ever.
