Joey Barton

[Tooj]

I thought he was quality today.

[Keefaz]

Even though it was a joke, he shouldn't have done that Nazi salute. Nee one likes him as it is.

[Cajun]

What a huckle chuckle.

 

Did very well imo.

[Bad Mongo]

The Nazi salute is supposed to be done with the right hand, AFAIK.

[Ronaldo]

What a guy!

"The more people cane us, the more we like it. Everything goes up on the board in the dressing room and we come out every week looking to prove people wrong.

 

"We could have had eight against a very good Villa side. This won't be an easy place to come for any side to come to."

 

SIEGE MENTALITY

[Ishmael]

oh ffs he did do a nazi salute, didn't he?

 

 

[Adam]

Talk of a Nazi salute celebration on 5 live? Yawn. Get of his back man.

Watching the videos its obvious team mates had made jokes about his tash and hitler, if it was anoyne else nothing would be said.

[Ishmael]

of course something would be said...

 

actually have a feeling less will be made of this because it's barton.  should just be expected really

[Guest ObiChrisKenobi]

I'm surprised that there's people defending him, two different forums:

 

So when John Cleese does it, it is comedy gold. When Joey Barton does it, it is a disgrace?

 

Of course, the guy isn't exactly the most loved character in the game. However I don't see the big deal.

 

Looks like he did, will be interesting to see if there is a reaction. When Basil Fawlty did it everyone laughed when Barton does it he will be tagged a neo nazi.

 

Cant stand the cnut, but its fairly harmless

Joey Von Barton.

[Guest RowanB]

To be honest, Nazi salutes are the kind of thing that shouldn't be joked about. We can all see that there was almost definitely no malice, but that's not the point. It's just a really naive thing to do.

[Dave]

I can't wait for the press to be full of this absolute bollocks. He had a fucking tache, then he scored. He put his arm in the air.

 

Nazi salute, jesus fucking wept. I guess Shearer's traditional goal celebration was a partial Nazi salute as well then. What a nation of politically correct sad little cunts this country is at times. Whinging pricks.

[Guest BlacknWhiteArmy]

Just leave the man alone ffs

[David Icke - Son of God]

It didn't look like a nazi salute to me, it looked like he pointed to his 'tache and waved to the bench. It's not even the right type of tache, for fucks sake

 

If it was anyone other that Barton we wouldn't be having this discussion.

[Guest Stephen927]

There was always going to be something dragged out to spoil the day. Really scraping the barrel with the Nazi salute talk.

 

Maybe it offended all 0 of the German players in either squad.

Surely Nazi salutes would offend Jews more than Germans?

[Mistle17]

What a goal

 

Exactly. What a goal! Who gives a fuck if he put his arm up in the air for christ sake. As Dave said, this country is so sad with its PC at times.

 

If Steven Gerrard had done that it would be non-stop jizzing over his goal from the media. But not with Barton....

You have to bear that little ginger fuck on the advert at the start like.

It should offend both unless the Germans in question harbour Nazi tendencies.

Avram Grant is so upset he's getting a happy ending with his massage this evening.

[Guest RowanB]

I didn't actually see anything, but if he did a Nazi salute, that is extremely naive. If it wasn't and people are getting hysterical about a Sheareresque celebration, then that's just pathetic.

[TRon]

I'm not interested in any of the nazi crap. More importantly, Barton looked like a player today, he looked quality.

[Guest optimistic nit]

whether nazi salutes should be joked about or not (personally i see it as an issue, mainly as i've called people nazi's or hitler in the past), if your going to criticise barton for it, then there are a lot of others to criticise as well.

[Guest Stephen927]

That was the player Allardyce signed. Taken far too long for the fans to see it. More please.
