Starnes and Barton. cnuty & cnuty Esq.

I'm sure that the media perception of Bartons character and what he is actually like are worlds apart or he would be another one to fade into obscurity. He doesn't seem to struggle to get jobs.

Barton actually speaks really well and I’m sure he’d come across very well in interview. It’s his character that doesn’t take much to call into question. He is from a family of utter lowlife, and if wasn’t for his footballing ability he’d be inside like many of his relatives have been.

It’ll all end in tears.

May be a good appointment for Rovers in the short term,he wasn't bad at Fleetwood.Long term is anyones guess,only takes one explosion but i'll be generous and say he'll be in post until January 2022.
