[edit] Scunthorpe United

When Nigel Adkins was appointed Scunthorpe manager in November 2006, Baraclough was made head first-team coach. From the 2008/2009 season, he ceased playing to concentrate on coaching duties.

Baraclough was appointed caretaker manager of the club on 12 September 2010, following Adkins' departure to League One Southampton.[1] His first match was a 4-0 away win at Sheffield United. On 24 September 2010 Scunthorpe United named him as their new manager. [2] He was surprisingly dismissed on 16 March 2011 after a 3-0 loss to Preston North End, who occupied 24th place in the Championship, with his team in the relegation zone at the time of his dismissal.[3]
