He deserves that. Great player and great fella, one of the best.

Agree. I'd also say that King Kenny totally deserves one just as much for his off field stuff as  a human being as much as a footballer. It's why he is a true legend in every sense of the word. 

Good point, why hasn’t he got one?

 

Out of interest, I assume the people whose houses these are painted on are asked if they are ok with it?

A bankruptcy petition against former Liverpool and England footballer John Barnes has been lodged by tax officials.

A judge considered Barnes' case at a hearing in a specialist court in London which the star did not attend.

Judge Catherine Burton was told by an official from HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) that Barnes owed £238,000.

The judge made no orders and said the case would be reconsidered on 29 November.

Barrister Nathan Webb, who represented Barnes, told the judge his client "just" needed time to pay and asked for an adjournment.

He said Barnes was employed by Liverpool FC "on a salary of £200,000".

 

"Mr Barnes is very well and able to pay," Mr Webb told Judge Burton.

"He just requires a bit of time."

Get on the phone to Stevie at Al Ettifaq FC, if that pudding Horrenderson can blag £350k pw then a genuine great like Johnny Barnes should piss it.

Xmas fancy dress but he must have foreseen even then that's the same outfit those acrobats who worked the giants wore.

One of those goals was in a 4-0,or 4-1 demolition of Brentford in the Cup. I'd settle for that today.

My favourite player growing up. I was 12 when he signed and that QPR game was the first I saw him live. Wasn't a difficult choice after that.

It's such a shame we were not in Europe when he was at his peak.

4-0, 89 quarter final if I remember correctly.

Massive crowd on the Kop that day too,largely because of the Barnes/Beardsley/Aldridge/Houghton free scoring set up we had.
