What they Said
"Is Jimmy Brown a good player? What do you think?
โYes, he's going to be a great player.
โHe won the corner from which we scored, and during the whole game I donโt think he stopped running.
โIt was his first full League game of the season, although he has played in the League Cup.
โIt wasnโt a good match against Barnsley, but I think the players who came in because of injuries did fairly well.
โThings [injuries] have happened all at once.
โIt was only a free games ago that we had a settled side.
โThen a crop of injuries meant making quite a few changes.
โBut for all that I donโt think Barnsley would have scored if they hadnโt had that penalty.โ
Vic Crowe.
