Barron started his football career at <a href="/wiki/Middlesbrough_F.C." title="Middlesbrough F.C.">Middlesbrough</a> and made three appearances for the club. He would spend time on loan with local club <a href="/wiki/Hartlepool_United_F.C." title="Hartlepool United F.C.">Hartlepool United</a> before signing permanently there in 1997. Early in his Hartlepool career, Barron won back-to-back Player of the Year awards in 1997–98 and 1998–99. After the club suffered three consecutive play-off defeats, Barron won his first promotion with the club from the <a href="/wiki/Football_League_Third_Division" title="Football League Third Division">Third Division</a> in 2002–03. After two unsuccessful play-off campaigns in the <a href="/wiki/Football_League_Second_Division" title="Football League Second Division">Second Division</a> and then subsequently <a href="/wiki/Football_League_One" class="mw-redirect" title="Football League One">League One</a>, Hartlepool were relegated back to the fourth tier. Nevertheless, Barron won his second promotion with the club the following year. At the end of the 2007–08 season, Barron retired from football having made 374 appearances for Hartlepool, the ninth highest total in the club's history. In his final season as a player, Barron began his coaching career at Hartlepool at youth level. He later moved into first-team roles with the club as a first-team coach, assistant manager and also as a caretaker manager on two separate occasions before leaving the club in 2013. Following this, Barron worked as a teacher before returning to coaching as assistant manager at <a href="/wiki/Blyth_Spartans" class="mw-redirect" title="Blyth Spartans">Blyth Spartans</a>. <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Football_career">Football career</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Michael_Barron&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Football career">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Middlesbrough">Middlesbrough</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Michael_Barron&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Middlesbrough">edit</a>]</div> Barron was born in <a href="/wiki/Chester-le-Street" title="Chester-le-Street">Chester-le-Street</a>, but started his career at <a href="/wiki/Middlesbrough_F.C." title="Middlesbrough F.C.">Middlesbrough</a>. Despite spending four years at the club, Barron only made three appearances and found his chances of breaking into the first team limited. Barron looked elsewhere for game time and he was allowed to go on loan to <a href="/wiki/Hartlepool_United_F.C." title="Hartlepool United F.C.">Hartlepool United</a>. Barron made his debut for Hartlepool against <a href="/wiki/Carlisle_United_F.C." title="Carlisle United F.C.">Carlisle United</a> and made 14 appearances during his loan spell. Middlesbrough then released Barron and he signed permanently for Hartlepool. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Hartlepool_United">Hartlepool United</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Michael_Barron&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Hartlepool United">edit</a>]</div> After his 3 months on loan at Pools, Barron was persuaded to sign permanently in 1997 under manager <a href="/wiki/Mick_Tait" title="Mick Tait">Mick Tait</a>, Barron found a role in the middle of a back three, playing as a sweeper, and impressed with his cool and calm nature. He was voted Supporters' Player of the Year in both 1998 and 1999. Barron moved to right-back under <a href="/wiki/Chris_Turner_(footballer,_born_1958)" title="Chris Turner (footballer, born 1958)">Chris Turner</a>. Barron was in the Hartlepool side that had three consecutive <a href="/wiki/Football_League_Third_Division" title="Football League Third Division">Football League Third Division</a> play-off semi-final defeats. He was part of the promotion-winning side in 2002-03 but Pools were pipped to the league title by <a href="/wiki/Rushden_%26_Diamonds_F.C." title="Rushden & Diamonds F.C.">Rushden & Diamonds</a> on the final day of the season. Hartlepool had to beat Rushden to win the title but could only draw.<a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a> After promotion, Barron led Pools to the play-offs the following season and he was stretchered off in the second half of the second leg of the semi-final at Bristol City. Pools went on to lose in injury time. The following year, Pools went one better and Barron led out the Hartlepool team as captain in their <a href="/wiki/EFL_League_One" title="EFL League One">League One</a> play-off final in May 2005 against <a href="/wiki/Sheffield_Wednesday_F.C." title="Sheffield Wednesday F.C.">Sheffield Wednesday</a> where a late equaliser eight minutes from time denied Pools their first ever promotion to the <a href="/wiki/EFL_Championship" title="EFL Championship">Championship</a>, Hartlepool went on to lose in extra-time 4–2 in front of a crowd of 59,808 at the <a href="/wiki/Millennium_Stadium" title="Millennium Stadium">Millennium Stadium</a>.<a href="#cite_note-3">[3]</a> To celebrate 10 seasons with the club, a series of events were held such as a testimonial dinner with <a href="/wiki/Bobby_Robson" title="Bobby Robson">Bobby Robson</a> as guest speaker. Barron could only attend the later stages of the dinner as he was involved in a reserve team match while trying to make his comeback from injury. A testimonial game, at Victoria Park against <a href="/wiki/Leeds_United" class="mw-redirect" title="Leeds United">Leeds United</a> which Hartlepool won 2–1, was also held.<a href="#cite_note-nc-4">[4]</a> During his time on the sidelines, he became a regular special guest commentator on Pools World, the Hartlepool United audio commentary service.
