18-1-10: Burton Albion have signed Barnsley centre-half O'Neil Thompson on a 28-day loan deal. 2-7-10: Hereford manager Simon Davey has raided former club Barnsley to sign defender O'Neil Thompson on a season-long loan. The Jamaica international, 26, joined the Tykes last August from Norwegian side Notodden FK for an undisclosed fee. However, he has made just two appearances for the Oakwell outfit and also played twice for Burton during a loan spell at the beginning of 2010. Thompson is Davey's fourth new signing at the club following his arrival at Edgar Street after he tied up deals for Janos Kovacs, Dan Connor and Sean Canham earlier this week.
