I was saddened yesterday to hear of the passing of Ken Barnes at the age of 81.
Ken spent 11 years as a player at City, 1950 -1961. He worked tirelessly for over 40 years at the club in various rolls.
I spoke to my dad today on the phone and asked him what he was like as a player. “He was one of the best players that I saw who never played for England.”
My condolences to his family.
