    Eric Barnes

    Can anyone e3xplain why the club have not acknowledged this local, one-club man who played so many games. A minutes applause or silence was surely obligatory?
    However they let Ernie Tagg's passing go by a few years ago without any recognition and he was manager 3 times so are we surprised???

    re: Eric Barnes

    I stand corrected.Clearly the club acknowledged and decided what they would do

    Personally I don't believe it was quite enough as I think we have silences in football now at the drop of a hat. This was not a bit part player but a first team regular for 10+ years

    However that's just an opinion

    Thanks
