Early life

Barrie Thomas was born on 19 May 1937 in Measham, Leicestershire.[1]

Career

Thomas began his career as a youth player with Leicester City.[1] His senior career began with Leicester City as a seventeen-year-old in 1954, but over the next three seasons, Thomas only managed to play in seven league games, scoring three league goals in the process.[2] Thomas moved to Mansfield Town in 1957, and spent two seasons with the club, scoring 48 league goals in 72 league games.[3] Thomas' next club was Scunthorpe United, moving there in 1959. Thomas' form in the 1961–62 season saw him score 30 league goals in 22 league games by Christmas 1961,[4] and a total of 31 goals in 24 games in all competitions.[5] Thomas' goalscoring record attracted attention from First Division clubs including Manchester United, Bolton Wanderers and Fulham.[4] Leeds United had a bid of £30,000 rejected by the Scunthorpe United board of directors.[4] However, Thomas was eventually sold to Newcastle United in January 1962 in a part-exchange deal, which saw John McGuigan moving in the opposite direction.[4] Newcastle also paid Scunthorpe either £35,000,[4] or £45,000.[6] In his three seasons at Scunthorpe, Thomas scored 67 league goals in 91 league games.[7] Thomas' exit had a detrimental effect on Scunthorpe United's season; attendances at their home matches fell by 20% after Thomas left,[4] and the club dropped from 1st to 4th in the League.[5] Thomas spent two years at Newcastle United, scoring 48 goals in 73 games,[8] before returning to Scunthorpe in 1964. Thomas spent a further two years at Scunthorpe, scoring 26 goals in 52 games in his second spell with the club.[7] Thomas' final club was Barnsley, where he scored 19 goals in 43 games over two years,[9] before retiring in 1968 because of injury.[1]
