Taddy’s longest serving player took the decision in 2018 to book in for an operation on his troubling shoulder in order to come back fitter and stronger.

The 2016/17 Supporters Player & Players’ Player of the Year hasn’t featured since the goalless draw at AFC Mansfield back on January 5th but is on track with his recovery after a successful operation.

“Rehab is going really well” said Barrett.

“I’m seeing Lucy every week and it’s feeling a lot better, I’m continuing to strengthen all the muscles around my shoulder which has seen me get back a lot more movement.”

Head physiotherapist Lucy Lendhill has stated that the versatile defender is recuperating well and will make a comeback before the end of the season.

We are looking forward to seeing Josh back on the pitch!
