..a placid young man who unfortunately finds himself in a spot of bother. So uncharacteristic of this gentleman I am sure. http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/37378180
This was an accident waiting to happen, though I thought he would be done over by some Hoops supporters by now.
If managed correctly he's a great player at Championship/SPL level. Further testament to Dyche I suppose, getting the best from him.
Yep, did a fine job at Turd Moor last season, steadying the ship and guiding them on the pitch. Seems to have become a pantomime villain somewhat in the eyes of the undiscerning and easily outraged.
I get the impression that like so many players these days Barton believes he is better then he actually is, decent player but sounds like a bit of a `billy big bollocks` to me.
Barton getting into trouble for something he said has got to be better than him committing GBH on someone. Maybe he's improving.
How awful if him. Just imagine. A player who instead of just accepting his wages and humiliation defeat gets upset by it and those who do. How awful. Don't want players with that sort of commitment, do we?
This is one of footballs biggest lies. He was atrocious against Celtic. He's kept himself in relevant because he's a twat but his ability isn't all that and never really has been.
