I honestly think this doesn't matter to me one jot. Tough breaks and all that, but why more deserving of best wishes than other players who seem to get the old "close the door behind you" type comments?
Possibly because it's not through lack of talent or application that it hasn't worked out - a good young footballer in an 80 year old's body. It seems a shame. I didn't make it as a footballer for the same reason as Michael Pook - because of crapness. This seems less of a shame. |

He'll always be fondly remembered for banging one in against Mansfield that day - what a cracking day (Spencer - Captain Rum at the Steam?). All the best Baz.

What saddens me most about the Corr situation is that he genuinely wanted to do well for us, and never really got the chance due to his injuries.
Good luck Barry.

I'll never forget the Bournemouth goal. That was an absolute cracker.

Yeah, my birthday where my car broke down, preventing me from attending what would've been my first away game!
We had a big smash on the motorway on the way there |

Even rum tasted good that day. RobertT, Barry Corr has got a love of the game that is very rare in footballers nowadays. He was in it for the glory, not the money. Barry Corr - Top bloke. |

Because he was a genuine nice guy and was desperate to do well here but unfortunetly injury meant he didn't get the chance. I wish him well and hope that he can stay injury free and get a run of games, I think he will be one that we will regret not keeping and taking the chance. |

Good luck toi Corr (sorry just catching up on news, I know this was posted ages ago), genuinly loved playing for Swindon Town I think, you could see the tears in his eyes when he was strechered off for us. That goal against Mansfield and the stratton bank rocking will live with me for a long time.

I remember that....we drove past and the car was flipped over. Then we heard from someone else that you guys somehow managed to make it to the ground in time for kick off!! Great goal that day. Strange how Barry Corr got so much acclaim and ALMOST the beginnings of "cult" status when he didn't actually do that much for us. Obviously you have sympathy for the injurys. I still fucking love super barry though. |
