    As revealed by Sportsmail, Barton took exception to a comedy skit performed by Evans at a team meeting and the pair got into a heated row following last month's 1-0 defeat at Swindon Town.

    Sounds like Evans took the piss out of Barton and Barton wasnt happy 🤣🤣

    The last time we played Burnley at the Valley, Barton dominated the midfield .. I still reckon it was because our players were too scared to get too close to him ((:>)

    Would love to know who the other candidates were for the Bristol  Rovers job, that Barton was preferred over.

    He did a pretty decent job as Fleetwood manager. Ignoring the baggage, he's well qualified for the Brizzle job

    story in today's S/Times .. Barton at Newcastle when Shearer was the manager and Dowie his assistant .. 1/2 time, Shearer was bollocking Barton for what was described as a 'coward's tackle' .. it got VERY heated and Dowie intervened .. 'Who the feck asked you boxing glove ead' was Barton's response to Dowie .. shows that Barton is not all bad ((:>)

    Totally missed that Barton had been appointed manager of Bristol Rovers until I saw him tweet last night celebrating the win (which seemed totally random without the aforementioned context!).

    His the situation with the incident involving Barton and the Barnsley manager been resolved? Surely Barton wouldn’t have been hired if it hadn’t?

    All going well he could be the first manager on the touchline via Zoom from his cell.

    It's taken so long to come to court that Barton is working for a different club, while Barnsley are on their 2nd manager after Stendel!

    exactly .. off topic a bit ..  there is a lot of concern that violent criminals are still awaiting trial and others given lenient sentences because of the risk of Covid spreading in prisons. In general the pandemic has meant that many case will have to wait for two, even three or four years before getting a hearing

    Also victims don't get access to the support they need until after the hearing, obviously I don't it's relevant in this case but
