A racist statement, to be precise. A mate of mine was in that group in the barWe'd just signed Andy Cole and they'd just signed Marcus Bent and someone asked who would be the better buy. Barton replied "They're both a pair of useless n******" which sparked off the confrontation.law74 said:irishben said:mikeyboy said:The irony of joey Barton preaching anti racism after the Richard Dunne Thailand incident.
what happened there? was there racism involved? I remember He slapped a teenager and scuffled with Dunne, don't think there was anything racist involved although there was nothing about being anti racist in the interview to be fair
From speaking to some that were in the bar at the time, barton came out with a few racist statements that started the fracas
Completely agree with you !!Aguero_Element said:Fk off Barton, can't believe some idiots are agreeing with him. Not on at ALL
Thank you for this list - people forget how lucky we are to have Carlos at city. He is trying so hard to make up for the mistakes of last season - how can some 'City' people side with Barton on this is just unbelievable.Tevez City said:I am not sure if Barton can get half these awards :)

He's trying to justify what he did in that match but regarding terry + suarez affairs, hes bang on the head. Yes he is a nasty peice of work and every one hates him, but I'd much rather him in the game than a pair of racist cunts.The Future's Blue said:He does have a point.
