    Great shout Animal and I was actually at that game but alas the memory takes a bit of prompting these days , there will be a lot more class acts I will have missed but that is why I started the thread, what it does show is that over the years there has actually been some world class players run out on our hallowed turf .

    I’ve seen some good Barnsley players:
    Glavin
    Hirst
    Hignett
    Hammill
    Earnshaw

    I didn’t go during the Premier season cos I was otherwise busy - so I didn’t see those games.

    But the performance that sticks in my mind was Mark Hateley playing for Portsmouth.
    He wer like Thor - but with black hair.
    Incredible performance.

    If you ask the older end this question the name Tommy Taylor is usually mentioned.

    I saw Gareth Bale substituted at Oakwell after 10 minutes of being roasted by a certain Martin Devaney.
