Joey Barton’s autobiography

[dublinblue12]

Does his red card in the QPR 2012 game get rescinded if the charges stick?

I witnessed a training session where he slid in with a dirty tackle on Paul Bosvelt.
Bosvelt got up and sparked Barton clean out. The training session just went quiet.
I bet that wasn’t in his book.
Barton thought he was a hard man. Bosvelt actually was.

What’s wrong with Danny Tiatto?

I was going to ask the same question

There is a Podcast called crime in sport hosted by 2 American comics, it’s very funny. They have an episode on joey Barton (episode 99-the punchiness of joey Barton)
Admittedly they don’t know much about football, so you have to excuse some of their ignorance. But well worth a listen

I was going to ask the same question

Probably his numerous red cards that made him a constant liability. Oh, and threatening to kill the manager!

Just read his autobiography. Went in with an open mind as he did have an impact on our history, whether it was stubbing cigars out in youth players eyes, or assaulting teenage Everton fans on pre season Asian tours. But wow, starts off with his upbringing in what he describes as a difficult environment. You get the jist, parents split. Council estate. Wrong side of the tracks.blah blah. Fuck me we all carry this shit, or know a friend who does. Anyway I quite liked it for the first few chapters because I could relate to his tales and life experiences but my god by halfway through it, I realised that Joey or Joe, by the end of his reincarnation, likes to be addressed, was a compete narcissistic, ego filled, blame shifting **** of the highest order. Would eat himself if he was chocolate.
Likes to play the hard man, grew up in Huyton, estate this estate that. What an absolute hypocrite he really is. It was penned by him, supposedly in 2017, before he got into management. He’d been reborn, was an articulate, troubled soul, misunderstood by the red topped biased media, who really deep down, under the layers would have been a drug dealing scrote had he not been a footballer.
Delusional character in my opinion who like many footballers before him, think he’s the bees knees. What a prick. Anyone else read it?

My mate who is a Burnley fan lent me the book when Barton was playing for them. Got halfway through.. Delusional, egocentric, narcissistic moron,

Joseph of Ringpiece.

I'd say he played a big part in keeping us up that season under Pearce. I remember a win away at Fulham in particular.

He was a very good player for us and the first City player in years to put his foot in on Keane, who had terrorized us for years.
