Midlands Robin Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Before Barton, could anyone honestly imagine any manager at any club saying "I'm only here to put myself in the shop window for a bigger club"? I can think of a list of managers who had top flight playing career's and went on to cut their teeth managing lower league clubs and can't think of any of them as being as arrogant and deluded as Barton.

BS3City Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 It could be that the missing 7 from the enormous expected away following broke down en route. I certainly hope so. Will they be forever known as the "Barrow 7"??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact is he has a worse record then both Garner and Tisdale who he called Negligent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way he'll get anywhere near to promotion with those clowns this season. He can start sending out his professional (!) CV....from his local gaol.

elhombrecito Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Just caught up with their 'highlights' on Quest. Ludicrous red card. His offense was to shout at the guy faking injury on the floor and then reach down and touch him. Yellow at the absolute worst. But yet, the ref was biased against the 15ers of course...

This was from a Rovers fan on Gas Chat - Perhaps they are beginning to see what a clown he really is : I listen to Nigel Pearson - Quality balanced and measured leader. I then listen to Barton - Fast paced, contradicting himself and just nonsense. It’s embarrassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
