      Read loads of Latics sites and whenever we’ve sacked a manager there’s always a clammer for Barrow to go to.

      Love to know why. Does anyone actually know he’s not doing his job or what his role is? He doesn’t pick the team, choose the tactics. People moan he’s not questioning these. Maybe he is but getting ignored or may be he’s told just to train them and that’s what he’s doing competently.

      Every club has a static in the coaching staff and Barrows ours.

      Or having said that he could be the incompetent old fool some build him up as.

      I remember Whelan sacking him as boss a long time ago and most at that time thought it harsh.

        Good points there. He gets a lot of stick and yet his knowledge and experience of the game is extensive. He was one of the major reasons for last seasons promotions.
        The man has earned and deserves respect, not ridicule even if he does s.f.a.

        The point is that most managers have a favoured number 2 and in a lot of cases have a backroom staff they trust so come as a package. With Barrow a permanent fixture here that wont happen and may put off some from taking the job.

          I remember Barrow getting kicked out of the football league in 1972.

            How do you know he was over and above anyone else?

            Aa good a backhanded compliment as I’ve ever heard.

              The clue is in one of. You know Samantha, one of, meaning one of the team of coaches and staff that got us promoted. A full compliment to the man not a back handed compliment.

              Won 4-0 yesterday, 5th in the Conference (or whatever it’s called this season :unsure: ) and Holker Street is a happy place at the moment.

                So he was one of the major reasons for last seasons promotion even though he may do sweet fuck all.
                Brilliant……

                  Learn a few manners Samantha or LHL will chastise you again and you will disappear again for a year or so.

                    I have always thought that Barrow is Whelan’s ‘Eyes And Ears’ Not sure if this is still the case what with Sharpe being at the helm of the club?
