Not exactly related to the "game plan", but I wonder whether the new found tough edge as witnessed in the Port game, comes from specific instructions from Barker himself ? He spent most of his playing career at the birthplace of unsociable football, and was also an assistant under Clarkson for a couple of seasons. I wonder if he's passed on to the boys some of the finer points of this, er....... much maligned art ?
I wonder also whether he has a bit of that John Worsfold thing happening ? The iron fist in the velvet glove. Woosha always liked that "mild mannered bespectacled pharmacist " facade, but those who saw him as a player know he was anything but. Barker has a bit of that easy going manner, but I wonder if there's more to him than that..............
