The Cobblers goalless draw with Bury on October 2 was Barnetts final game as a footballer.Northampton boss Keith Curle told the club website: We are all devastated for Leon.Leon had been having some issues but after a reaction in the Bury game we knew something wasn’t right, so we sent him for further testing.The medical team made the correct decision to stop all activity, and after testing and second and third opinions, for his own health and safety, Leon has been advised to retire. It is very sad news. Leon is not just a good player, but an important figure off the pitch too.However, far more importantly for Leon and his family, is that this has been diagnosed now and he is fit and well.Barnett made over 350 appearances during his 16-year career, winning Football League promotions with West Bromwich Albion, Norwich and Wigan Athletic.
