Discipline
Barson was regarded as a "hard man" of English football. The Times notes that "On frequent occasions Barson was escorted out of grounds by policemen to protect him from groups of angry opposition fans." Opposing crowds loathed him, forcing Barson to publicly defend himself on the grounds that he had been "brought up to play hard and saw nothing wrong with an honest to goodness shoulder charge." One violent challenge in a match against Fulham resulted in a seven month ban.
