Another in the long line of football psychos. First he tries to stub a cigarette out in a teammates eye, now he attacks an Everton fan and then another teammate. Chuck him in prison.
Stuart Pearce should Terminate his contract.. In any other job fighting with your workmates would end in dismissal.. but then that f.ucking wan.ker Gordon Taylor will come out from the PFA harping on about his rights etc etc (foff)
RE: hes already been chucked He's been thrown off tour, but thats nothing really.. Few days at home with the missus with the feet up?? Barton comes across and acts like a *****, i just hope Pearce takes a hard line with him, as Souness did with that other ***** Bell-end-amy

RE: meant to be a reply to "our jud" Excellent.. Good to see a manager taking a hard line. Didnt think that Psycho would stand for any ****
RE: meant to be a reply to "our jud" I seem to remember his being involved in an incident last season in a pre-season 'friendly' at Doncaster. Anyone remember what he did? Bad tackle or something worse, I think.
RE: meant to be a reply to "our jud" I remember a bad tackle that resulted in a brawl. Somethings telling me that was Jody Morris. I dunno, probably both centre of a brawl. :S
RE: meant to be a reply to "our jud" Yeah, i seem to think that he 2 footed someone and caused a mass brawl then got sent off.... Which was about a week after he told Keegan he was going to stop being a tw.at..I just think he's one of those players who will always cause trouble
RE: meant to be a reply to "our jud" i think it was a bad tackle on mulligan,keegan ended up subbing barton as the donny players kept trying to do a "macphail" on him in retaliation.joey barton is a knob
RE: meant to be a reply to "our jud" This is what happened... "Another red card in a pre-season friendly at Doncaster for starting a brawl showed that such flashes of temper and an absence of self-control were deep-rooted problems." From the Daily Mirror
RE: meant to be a reply to "our jud" oh well i was nearly reight,he still went off.joey barton is a knob.
I wish we had a player in the centre of our midfeild like him. We need some proper balls amongst our fairys.
