Snufflelufagus Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 He's on twitter as @dazzibarnard sends lots of tweets. Last one suggests he may be in Mumbai, though also he could be coaching Camberley Town (as he tweets about them lots) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydneybcfc Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Its almost sad reading that, it all sounds a little desperate... No i don't think footballers deserve the massive wages they get due to a short career, what i think they need is examples of the 99% of youth player and ex pros that have to leave the game and suddenly find themselves with no skills and selling golf clubs (not that there is a single thing wrong with that job but it must be a massive come down after playing in front of thousands each week). Great player and lovely left boot, hope he finds work in his beloved sport soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogkev Posted February 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Well, who knew a Barnard thread would turn into a stalking preference thread? Personally, I wouldn't stalk anyone (unless Kelly Brook once played for City), but would be interesting to arrange an ex-city player reunion where the fans could rub shoulders with all the former players. On another note, what're Paul Agostino and Soren Anderson currently doing? I used to foresee Anderson becoming a top continental coach and oneday returning to lead us to glory!

True, he was the left back when I started watching City on a regular basis, and it's only Mickey Bell who has topped him. Jamie Mcallister was also very accomplished during our promotion / play-off seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Orns Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Barnard and Bell were great, but Scott was my fav of the trilogy. Brennan, did we see enough of him to make a judgement? I remember he had one really good season, then he was off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many goals did Barnsley players score v Huddersfield in November 1998? I wonder if it was tough narrowing it down to Darren's effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure someone will prove me wrong there Brennan and Bell was at the same time cos Brennan had to play a fair few games at right back. Probably our best right back since the eighties as well!

054123 Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Martin Scott was my first city hero, to the point where I can remember going nuts when he scored the winner for Sunderland against Newcastle in their first top flight meeting in years. The old Rooker Park as well. Looked mental on the telly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He caught the eye of several clubs. Anyone remember scouser John Bailey and Scotsman Stuart Munro? - the one with perm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvio Dante Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Stuart Munro...lb at anfield if I recall. Followed unfortunately by Mark Humphries. With Marvin Harriott at right back.
