Barry Bannon slaps down former Ibrox ‘star’ Windass after Tony Ralston goal

Josh Windass is used to being badly out of his depth. 

A no-mark career with Accrington Stanley, Wigan Athletic and Sheffield Wednesday was sandwiched around a starring role in The Banter Years in Glasgow. 

Two 5-1 defeats, Andy Halliday’s Hampden meltdown, Pedro Caixinha, Mark Warburton and Graeme Murty were at starring alongside Windass Jnr as he got a tantalising taste of the big time before Steven Gerrard shipped him out to Wigan and obscurity. 

When Barry Bannon tweeted his congratulations to Tony Ralston following his goal against Armenia Windass decided to show his razor sharp wit. 

At the age of 28 it looks like international football is beyond Dean’s lad, for Ralston his goal last night completed an incredible season of success. 

Written off and almost discarded a year ago, next week he will be able to reflect back on an incredible season that has yielded league and cup medals plus vital goals for club and country. 

Meanwhile Windass is being linked with a Caixinha reunion at Argentinian giants Club Atlético Talleres.
