Jack Barrett = Stanley legend!!:)

If you want to shake the great man's hand and thank him for helping in giving us a town team club to support, call in to reception on matchdays!!

Even at 80+ years young, he still does a matchday shift!!:)

Sorry for sounding a little ignorant but as a lot of you know I'm not a Stanley fan, however I knew a Jack Barrett in the 70s was a very good french polisher, I'm just wondering if this is the same person
