Joey Barton

Now under investigation for possibly breaking betting rules (alleged to be from the barca demolition of celtic)

Im not really familiar on the rules when it comes to footballers betting. What is wrong with him betting on 2 teams he has nothing to do with?
 
I'm normally quite forgiving of those who have a bit of "rogue" about them. In Bartons case I'll make an exception because he's proved time and time again to be a bit of a shithouse and a coward. Two traits I'm definitely not forgiving for.
His background is no excuse. I've known kids who've had it far worse and not had millions in the bank to fall back on who are 10 times the person Barton has become.

Its just me or does anyone else think its a bit strange that in the same week/fortnight that he releases his autobiography (it out this Thursday), Sir Joey kicks off in training then gets put under investigation for breaking betting rules? Thus giving him maximum exposure in the media!

Basically EVERYONE involved in the game is banned from betting on it, , & as "Sir Joseph" had played against Celtic a few days before, could be argued that he had inside information

So you cant bet on any footy match at all? I didnt know that, cheers.
Seems a little harsh, but probably the only way they can 100% stamp out cheating i suppose

No, it's not strange and it's far to much of a coincidence as well... You are thinking what I'm thinking
