Speaking in the Bournemouth Evening Echo, Bartley is quoted as saying: "The boys have been doing well and, even though we lost 4-0, I don’t know if Eddie will change it. Hopefully I will get my chance again soon because I’m itching to play again. With me being injured and the team winning all the time it’s been difficult for me to get an opportunity. But you have to believe in yourself and believe that if you do get a chance you’ll be able to take it. That’s the way I feel about things but I’ll have to wait and see what Eddie does".
