Barrett has quietly gone about his business at right-back this season but he is swiftly becoming one of the first names on the team sheet.

I do enjoy playing at home. Who wouldn’t! The facilities and the pitch are outstanding
- Barrett

On Saturday The Brewers once again welcome Farsley Celtic to the i2i stadium but this time, for an FA Cup tie.

"Farsley Celtic is a tough draw for us, they are a good organised team. You just need to look at the goals they are scoring with the clean sheets they are keeping.

But we are just as good if not better. Anything can happen in the FA Cup but I do expect goals."

"The FA Cup does bring different incentives but for me it’s just another game. Preparation will be exactly the same."

Barrett insists that getting a home tie is crucial and praises the facilities at the i2i stadium.

"It always helps being at home in a game like this. Playing in front of your home fans and on your own turf. I do enjoy playing at home. Who wouldn’t? The facilities and the pitch are outstanding."

Over the years Barrett has fluctuated between right wing and right back but now seems to be settling into the back four making the position his own.

"As a kid growing up I was a defender. I do enjoy it at full-back, keeping clean sheets and also going forward and joining in with the wingers. For me I do think full-back is my position."

The Brewers have made an impressive start to their debut Evo-Stik season losing just once on the opening day.

"We have started the season well. We have kept four clean sheets in the league now as well as scoring goals. You can tell the difference in standard, it is definitely more of a challenge. I do think we are capable of reaching the play-offs, if not competing to win the league."

"This is my fourth season now at Tadcaster Albion and I have loved every moment of it. Seeing the club grow and grow has been great. The owners have done a brilliant job but also the fans have been fantastic."

"It’s a great club to play for and I look forward to the future."

"ATAW!"

Kick-off for the FA Cup tie is 3:00pm with the clubhouse open from 12:00pm showing Leeds United's trip to Cardiff City.
