Memories.

[Kev Saunderson]

Was watching the new video of the 501 goals last ight and when it come to the John Barnes section I was nearly in tears at what we once had.

 

The man was a legend and his goals were just awesome.

 

Remember, The Freekick against The Arse 89/90? His Double against QPR in 87/88, his right footers against Villa & Everton in the same season as one another........The man was a legend. Full stop.

 

With regards to a new midfield signing, we need someone like JB. But Who???? Ronaldinho, Denilson, Duff, Kewell, Rivaldo or Figo???

 

None of them are fit enough to lace the mans boots but they are probably the best wide men around. But I would really love to see Joe Cole in the red shirt.

Barnes was everything I love about football, and about everything I miss so much.

[Guest dannyboy]

Even if GH had a player like Johnny B he would probably only use him sparingly rotating him with smicer

still remember diggers debut at Arsenal , Beardo linked up with digger great cross for Aldo to head home , then stevie nicol heading home from 20 yards out for the winner in the last minute, went home from that game knowing we were in for a magical season.

I met Johny Barnes when he was in his last season for ya!we were playin man u away and he told me that all the lads wanted us to win as none ov them could stand Sir Alice Ferguson and he also tried to strangle me lol as i asked him what his fav game was and he said when we beat everton,i went when was the last time u did that?(when we were unbeaten against ya in the mid 90s)lol oh well class player and how you are crying out for a player of his class.

[Guest dannyboy]

[Guest Garry]

class rapper wasnt he just lol!

[Guest red baron]

simply the best red ever

[Guest Garry]

How old was he when he hung up his boots?

[Big Noel]

He played for Charlton in early 1999. He was 35 then. Remember him playing for them when they beat Liverpool (2-1 I think- did Carra get sent off in that game?). Joined Celtic that summer.

1987-88 was the first season I moved from the Kop into the Kemlyn Rd.

Our seats were right by the Kop and it was perfect for watching Digger skinning the defnders EVERY SINGLE GAME!

It was worth the entrance fee just to watch him alone that season and when you think of the quality throughout that team I can think of no bigger compliment to pay him than that.

Digger is everything Houlliet is not.

You might be the bees knees with yer mate drunken over on kraptalk and get the responses you so desperatly crave but there is no need to come on here and ransack EVERY single thread with your petty inaccurate opinions .
