MFR reported Barrowman signed for County - no other info anywhere though

And you know this how? He was always played the wrong way, and had he been played differently things may have been different.

Interesting to see a lot more people saying this kind of stuff now after he is gone. Why was no one else saying this whilst he was with us?

It was clear from the minute he joined us just what kind of striker he is / was yet he was never played in the right manner.

You should read Denis Law's autobiography, Renegade....

He was often told by various team managers exactly how they wanted him to play. He generally ignored each and everyone of them, and just did his own thing.

Are you suggesting Barrowman never fulfilled his capabilities at ICT because he tried to play according to the instructions he was given?

For the money he was on I'd have expected him to be able to take on the opposition single handed.

I agree and think the same methodology should be applied to Marius. He deserves nothing but riducle for his failure to help us make the latter stages of the Europa League!

Barrowman was on more than Niculae B)

sorry you should be in butchers and brewsters shoes as you seem to think you know how he plays and trys to score. maybe your barrowmans bumboy

:angry:

Oh how lovely....

But seriously Steve Paterson would've signed Barrowman. Maybe he also would've been his "bumboy"...

Come on guys....even Rory McAllister managed more goals for ICT than Barrowman ever did and he is considered (by some) to be one of the most useless strikers we ever had on the books!!!

Players come and go, some perform here when they haven't elsewhere and vice versa, but signing Barrowman on the money we did was absolute madness and we're best rid. Would people have preferred we keep him on the books draining what little money we might have in the bank and possibly preventing other signings?

I have a feeling that Barrowman could yet come back to haunt us now he's playing for Them.

The level of intellect / standard of posting on this site makes me "lol" a lot.

Here we are in third place and 1 point behind county. We have the top league scorer in our squad and what are we doing? Debating a former player. He's gone. He didn't fit into Butchers style. He had a habit of spitting the dummy. He's gone. End off.
