Barry returned for a record equalling 10th season with the club but suffered terribly through
injuries. After Xmas 2002 he had only played a few games for the 1st team, choosing instead to take
over part responsiblities with Matt O'Dea as 1st team manager. He made eleven appearances, scored
one goal and was awarded a second place and third place Man of the Match award.
2003 / 04
Appearances - 14
Goals - 2
Man of the Match - 7 points
Barry took over as manager for the 1st team from Matt O'dea at the end
of last season and has made it his goal to turn the team around and make them competitive again.
Barry suffered an injury midway through the season which put him out of the team for eight weeks. He
still made a credible fourteen starts, two as sub for the first team. He scored two goals and received
two 2nd place and one 3rd place M.O.M. awards.
2004 / 05
1st Team Appearances - 1
Reserve Team Appearances - 1
Goals - 0
Man of the Match - 0 points
Barry was injured for the whole season, and this enabled him to concentrate on the frustrating challenge
of the 1st team. This was a pivotal season for the club as a whole, some even said that the club could be no more,
such was the lack of team morale. So it says a lot that Barry, with the help of Gerry Brislin kept the 1st team
in the Premier, guided them to a Jubilee cup semi final, and to a Premier Division final which they should have won,
but let slip a 3-0 half time lead. Most would say that Barry did a stellar job, given the circumstances.
2005 / 06
1st Team Appearances - 21
Reserve Team Appearances - 1
Goals - 2
Man of the Match - 17 points ( 3rd )
Barry gave up his managerial duties for the 1st team, passing on responsibility to Sav Ferro. On the pitch this gave him
the freedom to play his own game and he had a good season playing twenty one games for the 1st team, scoring just two goals, but
picking up seventeen MOM points to finish third in that table. He also picked up the 1st team player of the month award for
March.
2006 / 07
1st Team Appearances - 18
1st Team Goals - 0
1st Team Man of the Match - 10 points
Barry had a fair season by his standards. He played eighteen games but did not score any of his legendary
forty yard screamers! He did score ten Man of the Match pointswith four 2nd place awards to finish a credible fourth in the
table.
2007 / 08
Barry is back for another season with the club.
