Chicane Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Joey Barton is like one of those characters in a soap that keeps committing crimes but someone never goes to prison. Like Tracy from Corrie, pretty sure she killed a guy and burned down a building and she walks about freely and nobody says anything Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm coming up 47, I enjoy a drink and to be fair I've probably drank at least once a week since I was 14, 3 bottles of wine absolutely wrecks me, I couldn't even imagine drinking 5, they must be on it all the time to build up that sort of immunity Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Aye, there’s no doubt he’s bad news. He talks well and maybe he’s decent enough a fair amount of the time but clearly it doesn’t take much for him to absolutely lose it and do something awful which endangers those around him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually have 1 to 3 a week depending on what mood I'm in and have done for years, with it upping in the last 18 months because I gave up weed. Could drink 3 and have a mint time now like, but it would be a special occasion for that. The idea of drinking 4 or 5 and being Barton's weight sounds totally deranged and deliberately asking for trouble. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drink can make people do some bad things obviously, but a decent person underneath it all surely wouldn’t attack their own partner. We all know he has issues, even though I never rated him as a player nor care much for him as an individual, I do hope he can remain out of trouble and get on with his life and become a decent person.

The College Dropout Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Always been a despicable character. considering 1) he was such a bang average player and 2) his terrible behaviour throughout his career, it’s shocking and disgusting that he had a managerial job in League 1 in the first place. Far better players and less despicable characters have been given considerably less chances than this lad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s true, but people do deserve second chances and I think he’s shown as a manager promise or rather that he has something to offer to the game. Given his history he could be a huge role model to younger players coming through, but he just seems a complete knacker at times! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 (edited) Gallowgate Shots did a top 4 Scousers vote thing the other week with this knacker in it. 80 odd appearances in 4 years. A half season where Andy Carroll made every player putting a cross in look like Beckham and he gets in as a choice ahead of Paul Bracewell and Kevin Nolan. And all because he slightly spoke out against Ashley and kisses our arse. Beggars belief. Edited March 19, 2022 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get second chances but he's needed that every couple of years for almost two decades now.. It is a shame from a purely footballing perspective because as you say, he's clearly shown he could have something about him as a manager in his two roles so far. But how many second chances does he get until he's just a bellend who's never going to change in spite of an eloquent soundbite from time to time? EDIT: Two fucking decades of Joey Barton. Makes me feel so old. Edited March 19, 2022 by wormy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of violent altercations in there. And it’s consistent with little restbite. ‘A complete knacker at times’ is more applicable to a Bellamy or a Dyer or Ashley Cole - I mean Dyer and Cole was just young rich and foolish. Bartons genuinely a bad character. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
