I just cannot help liking him. He is very real and vulnerable and his honesty is brutal.
When my nephew joined City as a kid , Jim Cassel used Joey Barton in his motivational opening day speach as the best example of being a professional footballer . He reasoned that " if Joey can make it with his background anybody can ".
I both like and admire him , faults an all.
Agreed. I thought it was a good article and I'll always be a fan. As a fuck up myself of a similar age to him he was always the most relatable to me. Though it's sort of funny to me I've joked about how annoying it is that he comes off like a freshman philosophy student and now he actually is.
