Joey Barton

Got sent this in an email last night and thought i'd share it with you all, make of it what you will but i found it interesting.

****************************************************************


Joey Barton was meant to be really good crack at the Hilton talk in last
night, load of lads from here went through. £500 a table - well worth it
they reckon.


Said he is totally nuts and just tells it as and how it is, swearing his
heed off and that.


Tales so far:
They had a comedian on first who was late turning up and announced he was
from 5under1and, he didn't last long, nobody laughed and he was heckled and
left the stage... a table at the front stopped him and said "excuse me mate,
do us a favour please.. Can you start telling some jokes".. The comedian
said "I can see this is going nowhere, see ya later.."


On his contract -
I can honestly tell you I want to stop here, I know you hear this all the
time, but I generally so, whether you believe me or not.... The idiots who
run the club keep moving the goalposts, they have offered me to take a pay
cut - I'm nobodies mug and the idiots who run the show haven't got a clue..
If I don't get what I want I will still stop here and let my contract run
down, love it here, and Alan Pardew is working his b*ll*cks off to get me
the deal I want.



On Pardew -
He is a cracking bloke and a great manager and coach, I hope the fans can
give him time and see what he can do, people think he's Ashley puppet, I
can tell you he most defiantly isn't anyone puppet and he isn't scared to
stand up to anyone at the club, I love working with him.



On Shearer -
I have a hell of a lot of respect for the man as a player, he was great,
but mmm we don't get on, we never will, I was recently out with a few of
the lads and he was there, we didn't say a word to each other all night,
just a wink and a nod.. Fantastic player but wasn't so good as a manager...
when I was at Man City Robbie Fowler was my role model - haha.. He was a
great player too, never scored as many penalties as Shearer though.... Ha.



On That bust up at Anfield.
We were 3-0 down and I f*cking hate that Alonso, I hate the c*nt... so I
thought right, here we go... it was a very bad tackle and a very bad thing to
do, I know that.. When I was in the dressing room Shearer stormed in after
the game pointing the finger and shouting you are a coward! Nobody calls me
a coward, if he had attacked me with regards to my football I would of
accepted my b*ll*cking, but he attacked me personally, I can tell you know
if anyone in here want to call me a coward I will take you into the car
park here and now, nobody calls me that.. Anyway yes there was a bit argy
bargy and we haven't got on since.



Who is your most hated current Player -
At the moment Carl Henry at wolves, what he done down there early in the
season, I wished I had digged him like I did Pederson the other month, I
really do... I know Mick McCarthy had told him to try and get me sent off,
anyway I kept calling him Chris, and pretending not to know who he was
after the game to wind him up.



Who is the hardest player you have played with.
Richard Dunn - I can tell you, no doubt about it, it was one of the biggest
mismatches going, but yes I started on him and he gave me a right hiding,
lets say I wouldn't start on him again.



Who else do you hate-
Any journalists in tonight?... "yes"... I hate you c*nts as well, hate you.



What's your biggest highlight of your career so far -
Winning the championship last year, I know I didn't play many games and I
hate it when players play 12 games or so and pick up a medal, it p!sses me
right off, but yes, I enjoyed, it was great.



On that 5-1 against mackems -
Unbelievable, an amazing day that will stop with me for the rest of my
life.



On Nile Ranger -
I can tell you he is the thickest man I have ever met in my life, he hasn't
got a single brain cell, dopey as hell.



On Enrique, will he stop -
I'm stopping, that's all that matters to me, if he wants to go, go.. I'm
not bothered.. He is the most vainest man I have ever met, honestly he is
terrible, he cannot walk past a mirror with out checking himself out, I
don't know why, he's an ugly Spanish c*nt anyway.



What happened after that heavy defeat at Leyton orient pre- season -
We got hammered 6-0, after the game we spoke about what we need to do to
get this club back up in the premier league and who is up for the battle,
I'm not going to name names here, but some didn't want to be here and
couldn't care less, I want tell you who they are... "come on Joey, we want
names".. Hmmm, okay right, I will tell you 2 of them, 2 names only, that
f*cking Bassong and f*cking Martins, disgrace they are, total disgrace...
anyway, the next morning after the match, me and a few of the lads
confronted those who didn't want to be there and, well, I basically told
them to p!ss off out of this club and never to come back.



On Stoke 4-0-
I thought we were the better football team, but we got stuffed 4-0.. It
happens.


On this side now -
Look, I believe we are a good football team, get behind us, we will be
alright..


On Andy Carroll -
£35 million, I would of sold him as well, no doubt about it.


Finishing off -
When I speak, I speak my mind and tell the truth, I hope all of you here
can believe everything I have said tonight as I don't talk sh!t and tell
things how they are.

 

That sort of honestly in football is bloody refreshing - even if it would cause some bother (if it's true).

 

Admiration tinged with envy MW.Did he drop his shreddies and show his butt at the end?

 

I can believe the Nile Ranger comment, he even looks thick as **** doesn't he?

 

A decent read.

Fair play to Joey, comes accross as a bit of a cock, but no more of a cock than most of my pals.

And me.

I'm stopping there.

 

This explains alot.

That 15 year old lad must have called him a coward so he filled him in.

 

Public relations exercises such as what he has embarked upon here will never disguise the fact that he is an arrogant arsehole...

 

True, but he's a talented arrogant arsehole...

You can't really deny that.

 

Fair point but doesn't it boil your piss that he has all that talent yet he chooses to be a dick? He's just one in a long line of talented arseholes who never deliver what they really can. Shame.

 

It does annoy me to see people waste potential but as you said; there is a long line of those.

 

Doubt he'll ever stake a claim for England as there's too much "preferred" competition in that role but if he'd kept his nose clean? who knows?

 

What's the date today? Oh what a coincidence........

 

How very dare you!!!!

 

Best part is mate, it wasn't an April Fool, it's all ****ing true.

 

Careful of your language, moderators aren't allowed to swear.

I love Joey Barton, always knows how to wind a crowd up, had you lot screaming when he was placing the ball just outside of the corner D. How accurate this article is remains to be seen.

 

Barton is a legend.

 

He's nothing more than a foul mouthed thug, but I will concede he's good at what he does.

 

Didnt Bartons cousin/relation murder some youngan in a park, used an axe I believe, then legged it to Amsterdam, before Barton appealed for him to come home and face the music, cousin/relation got a long stretch in nick. wonder if Barton visits him. violence it seems runs in that family.

 

Difference is... your not paid £60,000 a week not to be a cock.

The only way I can reply to a thread with this title is...

Cock.

 

His half brother, with an ice pick from what I heard.
