SEEING Phil Brown, left, join Barrow didn’t make me fall off my chair like Mark Hughes at Bradford, but it was still a surprise.
He’s a very different manager to Mark Cooper, the man he replaced. Mark, who I think is a very good manager, likes his team to play possession football and I just don’t think he had the players to do it. Phil is more about energy and hard work, and maybe the Barrow board have reasoned that is a better fit.
All told, though, I think Barrow didn’t plan for the departure of their National League winning manager Ian Evat...
