Jamel Campbell-Ryce

He did but his lack of end product used to frustrate me

That was partly to do with our style of play, though. Until Barnard signed we lacked strikers who were willing to attack the box and get on the end of crosses. Jamal actually produced far more crosses than people give him credit for but there was rarely anyone to get on the end of them. We rarely scored from Mark Gower crosses either for the same reason.

By all accounts JCR had a very decent season for Barnsley, though that may also be down to the fact he spent a considerable period on the left, which I believe is actually his preferred position.
 
Jamal has great ability but needs to cross the ball, used to frustrate me so much when he would beat his man then turn back inside to try to beat him again and end up losing it.
 
From the Barnsley Star:

BARNSLEY are considering a £1,000,000 offer for winger Jamal Campbell-Ryce, believed to be from fellow Championship club Reading.
Reds boss Simon Davey said they had turned down two previous bids but this latest one was under consideration.

The 25-year-old Jamaican international joined Barnsley from Southend in August 2007 for £175,000.

"When you get bids of this size, it's a big temptation," said Davey.
"Sometimes you have to deal with losing players. I hope he stays but I have to be realistic and there's a chance he may leave."
 
unbelievable!

Although I like him as a character, I never really rated him. He flatters to decieve - how many goals did he set up in the championship? - very few indeed.

Scored a couple of beauties v WBA 2 years ago, but yeah never really got the ball over in time. Scared the life out of Manure & promised more than he delivered. Having said that, you'd rather him on the right side than Betsy, Francis, Grant (recent performances notwithstanding) et al...
 
Jcr

According to Ceefax this morning Barnsley have rejected a couple of seven figure bids for JCR. Anyone know whether we have a sell on clause?

£175k i thought it was more than that something along the lines of £350k
 
The fact that we turned down £250k initially, only to accept £175k later on makes me think that the transfer is littered with clauses... RM isn't stupid, and his love of all things Sell-On would instigate there is one.

7 Figure bids! YOu have got to be kidding me!!!!

Didn't think Man City were that desperate!

Firstly, it would appear to be Reading who are making the bid, and Secondly, you clearly haven't been following his progress at Barnsley, which has by all reports been very impressive. Anyway, who cares so long as we get a nice slice of the pie!
