Fair comment but hindsight is a wonderful thing. Remember reading his wiki biography and thinking he fell out with people at his clubs as a player and wondering if he was a troublemaker. It's no secret that our FPA and Bamfords patrons were less than impressed at his outright refusal to speak for 5 minutes to diners prior to a match or arrange for Barrow or Darlington to stand in for him. Struck me as disrespectful to people who helped pay his wages and , in theory, "own our Club". What a refreshing change to hear Graham Barrow speak so passionately about what it means to be involved with a great club such as ours and performing with dignity and professionalism.
Lessons for our Board to learn?
