Ashley Barnes Interview - Somer Valley Sport

What this episode covers

Paulton Rovers aren't the only local footballers starting a Premier League campaign this season. Former Paulton striker, Ashley Barnes, is preparing for life in Englands top division with newly promoted Burnley, having gone close to achieving promotion from the Championship with Brighton and Hove Albion in recent seasons. Ashley's first appearance on the Somer Valley Sports Show was back in January 2012, when he talked about his continued family links with his old club. Now a Premiership footballer, Ashley still looks out for the results of his old team mates and was particularly delighted for his former colleague, Nick Bunyard, the manager who masterminded Paulton's dramatic play off victory at Merthyr Town. Ashley talked about the players he lined up with at Paulton, as well as the teams he'll now face in the Barclays Premier League, argued by many as the best in the world.
