Joey Barton

[fc:stanley]

So what do you think about joey bartons bust up with his team mate? Ive never liked the guy , he always thinks hes too clever on the pitch and isnt a nice person really. Hes cocky , immature and stupid.

This was the story from the mirror:

FOOTBALL bad boy Joey Barton was suspended by his club last night after shattering a team-mate's jaw in a bloody training ground brawl.
Raging Manchester City skipper Barton, 24, thumped Ousmane Dabo three times - and continued battering him as he lay hurt on the ground.
Shocked players restrained the England star as Dabo, 30, was led away with blood and tears streaming down his face.
Experts fear the hothead, who has a history of violent off-field clashes, could now find his career in tatters.
One club insider said: "It was incredible. Joey was hitting Dabo while he was on the floor.
"He goes on about how much he's changed, but you have to ask how many chances the club can give him."
Yesterday's punch-up was sparked when defender Dabo objected to a challenge from the tough-tackling midfielder. Barton shoved him, sparking a scuffle, then unleashed a flurry of punches. Former French international Dabo also suffered a bloodied nose and lip.
Man City have now banned Barton for the rest of the season and will haul him in for a disciplinary hearing.
It is the latest in a series of ugly incidents involving the star.
In 2004 he was fined six weeks' wages for stubbing out a cigar in a team-mate Jamie Tandy's eye.
The following year he was fined eight weeks' wages and ordered home from a Thailand tour for attacking a boy of 15. Last week he furiously accused the club's foreign stars of not pulling their weight. Loudmouth Barton was also shunned by Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard after he blasted England aces who released memoirs after the World Cup flop.
But his agent Willie McKay, who also acts for Dabo, backed him.
He claimed: "As far as I've heard he was defending himself. Because it's Joey it makes headlines.
"It happens on training grounds all over the country." A club spokesman would only say: "A player has been suspended until the end of the season pending an investigation."

Nasty piece of work,must run in the family.Somebody you'd like to smack in the gob.Heard Everton might be interested,hope not as there's a bit of history between him & Evertonians.Had to laugh a while ago when he demanded bigger wages or he'd be off.......alas for Barton no-one was prepared to pay him what he thought he was worth.

i think in the normal of circumstances he wud b sacked but seeing as he does have soem talent on the pitch regardless of what he's like off it its too much value for man city to write off

[Tin Monkey]

He's low-life. End of story!

Some of those vicious fouls he's committed this season e.g. scraping down the backs of achilles, etc, were stomach churning. Now yet another incident where he's attacked a team mate!

He needs putting down.
