Phew.

I saw the headline & thought we had yet another injury !

Think Barber was 'phased out' at the start of the season as Coyle wanted his own man as the 'keeper's 'gaffer'. Don't think Jussi was very happy and was also one of the reasons behind Al-Habsi's desire to move.

Barber apparently had a good relationship with Jussi and Ali and has a proven track level, as well as being massively respected in the game. But that didn't matter to Coyle. He'd prefer to give his mate the gig, who had previously worked with Brian 'Feckin' Jensen

What, the warm ups? What more could he do? A bit of sweeping, some washing up?

Not entirely true from what I heard. When Coyle first came to the club that was the case, but it was resolved and Barber stayed on and continued as before alongside the new coach.

I heard that Barber has a back problem and is limited in his duties because of it, currently...

Possibly due to either;

(a) His massive gut-bucket

(b) All the times he had to pick the ball out of the Darlo net (for he were fookin' shite!)

I see Branny's not the only one to make a return.
