I thought that a man losing his career was far more important than all the Forshaw transfer speculation so my latest blog pays tribute to Scott Barron. Hope you enjoy it.
The End Of The Day - Remembering a good pro.http://wp.me/p4Ksl8-eq Scott Barron forced to retire through injury
listened to his interview, seems to have an agency job lined up helping pros and media work.unfortunate for him how things turned out but is definitely in the top 50 of least value for money signings
Shame on you!
Shame yes but right also !
Thanks for the excellent write-up on your blog, I didn't know much about him before, sounds like a guy with the right attributes and I hope he does well in his career/ life moving forward.
Now done!Glad you enjoyed it. Scott liked it too! If you have time perhaps you could leave a comment under the blog itself. Cheers.
Nice piece on socc Saturday. Scott now running some type of performance coaching agency. Discussed the power of confidence in players and how Mark Warburton built it last season.
Seems to have helped broker the deal that took Dean and Colin to Birmingham, according to his Instagram feed. Cheers then.....

Does Maxime Colin know that he has to sell coffee as part of the deal?
I take it that Marky and the boys won't be inviting him back to iFollow comentary.
I'm not sure he should be seen as predatory. It was fairly obvious that some players would be moved on if they weren't willing to commit to a new contract and he would have helped with that process.
Indeed. Generally speaking, I'm not a fan of the players' agent thing, but I think Scott's one of the good guys.

Indeed, didn't he bring us Romaine?
Nice bloke and good at his job.
Which is more than can be said with regard to his previous job, impersonating a full back.
A bit harsh given his incapacitating injury but I do remember him playing at Walsall where we were 2 down after totally dominating and he was replaced by the newly signed Bidwell who's first touch was to put the right winger on the gravel track surrounding the pitch - that was the end of Scott.
NLB you're a lovely man but Scott was absolutely useless for us and a dreadful signing. He came across as a very likeable lad who the other players loved but he showed nothing in his short time here to suggest he was a decent signing.
He was a Rosler panic buy when it looked like Bidwell wasn't coming back.
He wasn't great.... OK. He was rubbish.
Genuinely can't recall a single minute of him for us. Good though that he has managed a career for himself after retiring early.
