He started the ‘77/78 season well - this was his 5th goal in 5 league games (+1 sub) so it was surprising he only played 6 more games before being sold to Scunthorpe for £6,000. In total he made 20 league & league cup appearances & scored 5 goals. 2/2 #BarnsleyFC #RonWigg #ScunthorpeUnited

Otd in 1977, Barnsley beat Watford 1-0 at Oakwell in Division 4 thanks to a goal from Ron Wigg. Signed from Grimsby for £8,000 the previous March to fire the Reds to promotion, he only played 3 games (+3 as a sub) without scoring as they finished 2 places short. 1/2 #BarnsleyFC #RonWigg
