He must be feeling on top of the world tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grantona Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Sign SB again and pair him with Shackell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 There's not much genuine joy in football, even less in watching that earlier, but Barks making a competitive appearance was right up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Good for Barker. I understand at one point the meds told him he might struggle to walk naturally ever again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaverRam Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 NC said very positive things about Derby's quality and the manager after the game, he made no digs about effort or investment, he was just very proud of BAFC. On the Barker thing, I'd like to think he was giving both sets of supporters (who he clearly has much affection for) the chance to show appreciation for a brilliant servant whilst at the same time increasing his chances of defending a 1-0 lead. That's how I read it anyway.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Shame on those of you soiling the return of Shaun Barker to championship action with petty speculation and snide remarks. The sausagetishness of some members on here is shocking and pangs of sour grapes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premier ram Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Congratulations Barks , youve never given up , a lot of these overpaid prima donnas and so called superstars in the game at the minute would of given up a long time ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PodgeyRam Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 I think there's some people on here looking for insults where there are none to be found. Clough brought on a defender to help see out the game. He may not have played for 4 years but there was no doubt he could still do the job. Absolutely delighted for Bark's, he really deserves it and I'm pretty sure it won't bee the last we've seen of him this season in a Burton shirt.

As for Nigel's motives, not sure it has to be an 'either or' debate that polarises opinion so much... If my missus dumped me then I wouldn't start dating another woman just to annoy her! It would be something I would be doing for me and for good reasons. However...if I went somewhere I knew I may bump into her...would I make sure the new companion got a run-out and was looking her very best.....?

King Kevin Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 How about 5 minutes against his old club so the fans can show their appreciation . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerTedd Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 What I think is brilliant is that even those that thought he might make it back to first team football, most thought it was right to release him (myself included) as he wouldn't be likely to be able to play at a championship level again, and he would most likely play out his days for a season or two more on a pay as you play contract in league 1 or 2. Lo and behold, he did sign for a league 1 club, but look at him now, doing a job in the championship. Maybe we should have kept him after all. Barker or Pearce?

Barker has the same intrinsic quality has good old Bucko. It's called character. It can't be coached or bought. And is exactly what this Derby side now so glaringly lack.
