Carlton Supporters Club

How was Barker sacked because of the announcement of the review? He was terminated because he had given notice of his intention to resign at the end of the season. 

I'm not sure how it all ties together, but I read that Barker informed the club that he would not be there next year, but was happy to coach the remainder of the season. I believe Teague was also happy / keen for him to see out the season, but apparently the higher ups (I'm guessing Lloyd / Liddle) told him to go there and then.

Barker was terminated/sacked 2 days after the review was announced.

What do you put that down to, coincidence??

Barker had the blessing of coach David Teague and football manager Brad Lloyd to coach out the season before leaving, but Barker’s departure was fast-tracked by management [Liddle].

“There are a number of areas that haven’t been up to the level - our skills, our contest work and defending. But we have strong confidence in the senior people around the club, including Teague, both on and off the field.”

Yes, it is coincidence.

The review was announced on 7 June.  Barker had given notice prior to that and was asked to bring his departure forward to 7 June.

Teague and Lloyd's support of Barker's intention to stay until the end of the season was widely discussed at the time and was brought up again in the context of Stanton's departure by Sam Edmund recently:
Interestingly, when asked about the review on 7 June, Brad Lloyd's comments included:

Saw this yesterday....GOLD!

Funny
I'm streaming The Office at the moment...watching an episode a day. That was the one I watched last night. The guy ends up talking his way out of the sack by making it a bit too hard to get rid of him.

Which episode is it?

Well, that was money well spent. Recommendation : sack the coach lol.

More to come...

I can't help but think Walsh is fait accompli.

The hangman becomes the judge!
