BARNSLEY head coach Michael Duff says he is looking forward to renewing acquaintances with former Burnley team-mate Joey Barton on Saturday afternoon - and is expecting his Bristol Rovers side to possess traits that the midfielder possessed in his playing days.
Duff and Rovers chief Barton were team-mates during the Clarets' Championship title-winning season of 2015-16 and has nothing but kind words to say about him and his work.
Duff said: "I played with Joey for a year and he was brilliant. It was the year we won the league. I think if you asked Joey, he absolutely loved his time at Burnley because the culture was set and he did what he does, he was a very good player, a leader who was tough and demanding.
"I get on well with Joey. He's gone down there and they have a way of playing and he seems to have the support of everyone at Rovers.
"It was a bit of a mess and disruptive when he first went in, but he seems to have brought it all together."
