Oh dear Joey on 07:12 - Mar 26 by numptydumpty | Ok slightly wrong But it just says he chanted racist abuse to police and had a placard against the authorities and shouting nonsense to asylum seekers in a hotel. Doesn't say anything beyond that. It's wrong. Yes. But two years and eight months for that. And no criminal record previously. Barton kicks his wife in the head, Huw Edwards blackmailing and paying large sums to under eighteen for nude pictures and meets them, neither get any jail time. Not good. [Post edited 26 Mar 7:13]

Did Edwards have to go on the sex offender list? --Thats pretty serious in and of itself. As for posting hate online, or joining a riot thats just about control of the masses. The government were pretty clear that they would go as hard as possible to nip this in the bud. Create an example that shows others not to follow. Now, while I agree with the above, I'm not sure why the same government couldn't also use someone like Barton (with a criminal history of violence) to send out a similar message to other domestic abusers in this country? Feels like a massive missed opportunity, did the CPS drop the ball somewhere? |  | |  |

I wonder if he used Nick DeMarco? He's one of the famous barristers isn't he and a QPR fan? |  | |  |

There is a well funded group of barristers that look after Yaxley- Lennon and Lawrence Fox. Probably that ilk i'd imagine. |  | |  |

There's no shortage of funding for the far right. Oddly, a lot of very wealthy people are very much in favour. Most of them are rather lower key than Elon Musk. |  |

Oh dear Joey on 18:37 - Mar 25 by numptydumpty | I read recently Barton saying he was peed off Warnock let Taraabt turn up 15 minutes late to training when everyone else would have been in trouble. Barton asked Warnock why did he let Adel get away with this. Warnock shrugged and said nothing. Barton said he was so peed off taking the mick big time and he said Adel was basically insulting the whole squad and so Barton peed off with Warnocks weakness decided to take retribution on behalf of all the lads by and in his words totally maramelising Taraabt and putting him out of action for a month or so. So yes because he didn't agree with something that the manager was ok with, he took action on behalf of the lads. The fact Warnock allowed this and said to all the other players, just pass it to him on Saturdays and we likely win the game. Joey Barton is never wrong according to Joey but obviously he is nearly 100 percent of the time dreadfully wrong. Kicking anyone in the head is awful, drunk or not, doing it to a woman is dreadful, to do it to someone you supposedly love and the mother of your kids, is ridiculously weak, pathetic and barbaricl. His wife retracting her statement smacks of someone telling her to do so. Wonder who might have done that. There is not a word that describes this man adequately. And the fact he is so self righteous is an unreal lack of self awareness. He thinks he is a good guy..... Dearie me !!!! [Post edited 25 Mar 18:39]

He needs to be reminded that Adel had 10 times his talent and he should pipe down, tosspot |  | |  |

He can't/won't/wouldn't accept that. When he was with us he said he should have been in the England squad but, amongst everything else why he was not, his pass completion rate was well below expected of a midfield player at that level. He really is delusional. |  | |  |
Oh dear Joey on 14:46 - Mar 26 with 1791 views | ted_hendrix | From the Guardian 13 Years ago; **Joey Barton finally signed a highly lucrative four-year contract at QPR on Friday after it became apparent no other club were poised to make a late offer for him and Newcastle United would not perform a volte-face. The midfielder, handed a free transfer by Newcastle after criticising the club on Twitter, had stalled for 24 hours on his move to Loftus Road, appealing for "time and space" after passing a medical in west London on Thursday. Yet following a day of talks with Neil Warnock he accepted an offer reported to be around £80,000 a week which, as well as representing a significant improvement on his near £70,000 a week Newcastle wage, will make him the highest paid player in QPR's history. Although Alan Pardew, Newcastle's manager, had said he "would welcome" Barton back and "look after him", it is understood that the St James' Park board never contemplated offering him the contract extension he craved and were delighted to learn that he had boarded a Kings Cross-bound train on Wednesday.** |  |

From what I remember all those cases were dealt with very speedily. So I'm not sure how much time there was to put a defence together. Although, looking at the just stop oil protesters, it looks like the decisions were made in advance anyway. |  | |  |

Many who sit in the front rows of the SB stand and Paddocks would disagree with your assessment of his pass completion rates. |  |

Warnock was after Scott Parker, but Tony had so little time to arrange the money and probably every agent in the world ringing him 24/7 telling him that the latest bag of sh1t was actually the hottest property in the footballing world and he would need to act fast to secure their services! |  | |  |

Oh dear Joey on 17:44 - Mar 25 by stainrods_elbow | The same wife who made a police report then retracted the allegations, then apparently unretracted them. Her game seems to be one of ambivalence, as often seems to be the case for women in passionate/rough-house relationships. Lee Chapman and Lesley Ash were another such couple, if memory serves. Nasty though Barton clearly is when his blood's up, and kicking anyone in the head, let alone your own wife, is clearly horrible, they sound to me like a drunkenly co-dependent pair who probably deserve each other.

It's all there in the great Strindberg, of course, whom I don't suppose you've ever read! Your idea of poetry, Romantic or otherwise, probably resembles the tweeting bird final scene of Lynch's Blue Velvet, but without the irony. 'Family . . . the home of all social evil, a charitable institution for comfortable women, an anchorage for house-fathers, and a hell for children.' [Post edited 26 Mar 18:24]

And why wiuld you assume that Terry's never read Strindberg, or is it only yourself on this Forum who has (in your not so humble opinion) who has the intellectual sophistication to grapple with his texts? Of course, whether anyone would want to read anything by him is another issue entirely😂 |  | |  |

I can’t remember the exact figures off the top of my head but it was something like 85% for an England player and he was around 65%. The only game I recall him putting a decent shift in was the 3-3 home draw with Burnley early 2014 I was in R block about 8-10 rows back in them thar days so had just as good a view of things too. |  | |  |

He was a f*cking awful passer of the ball, dreadful at set pieces and criminally overrated by many. The only reason he was a Premier League player was because of his mouth and because he ran about a lot earlier in his career. |  | |  |

Ah, obviously this was a bit too oblique. The joke was that his pass completion rate for the spectators in the stands he passed to was exemplary. |  |
