Don't DISS the Harley. I've never seen any player lose so many 70:30 tackles in all my time watching the Albion.

Christ I`d have Barnes back like a shot, nearly 50 goals in 160-odd appearances, nearly 1 in 3 games strike rate that none of our main current strikers will barely muster by the end of the season the way they are going, and his contribution to the team far outweighed a lot of our current front players too, he tried 110%, was passionate, got stuck in, tracked back, scored some great goals, yes he`d miss the odd easy chance or throw his toys out the pram a bit too much occasionally but so what, what we gained was far more than what he cost us.
Suffered unfathomable prejudice from some ignorant fans for no good reason, thank god the managers we had, had the job and sense to pick him and not the moaning brigade that has far too loud a voice in the amex and on here even now.

Definitely a top lad as you say and was superb for us in the 3rd division scoring 20 goals to help us to promotion, but not good enough for the 2nd division that`s why we let him go. How many goals has he scored for Burnley

Jeeezus. Beginning to think this is more of a comedy windup account than BG. He played 35+ games in the Premier League last season, you ****ing Muppet

He scored a cracking penalty against Liverpool at the Amex. Straight into the roof of the net.

As well as his petulance he is also missed a lot of chances.
The fact that he was on the end of more chances and scored more goals than 90% of strikers in the country despite playing wide and/or in midfield and putting in a shift defensively didn't register as a good thing with the boo boys.
An extremely valuable player.

Ashley Barnes would walk into our current team. (The one that is joint top of the championship). Nuff said

I'm the only person to have have him each way (for peanuts) to be Championship top goalscorers @ 100/1.
No'one else had the vision or was as stupid

Wasn't he injured (and known to be out for 12 months) at the end of last season?

Decent striker rate, even better considering 25% of his games were played on the wing.
