    Whatever the outcome, Barton is a nasty piece of work.  I am amazed clubs take him on as a Manager.

    Bit of time inside would probably do someone like him some good. Might help him realise he doesn't want to be an absolute scumbag.

    I get there's a lot of annoying loudmouths that people hate but this guy's going around (allegedly) slapping people about. 

    Absolute prat, can't see him getting booked for Question Time again.

    Honestly, it should not even be their decision. They should be TOLD how it's gonna be.

    And his brother murdered a young man with an ice axe in an unprovoked racist attack. What a lovely family. I don't know what self-respecting club would have this person anywhere near them.

    I agree with you Chunes, but Bowyer wasn’t exactly a saint as a player, and came with baggage, I know a lot of our fanbase accepted him but other clubs fans didn’t and thought he was a thug and a racist.

    I thought it was his cousin. 
    Point still stands though

    Much as I despise Joey Barton it's unfair to judge him by the actions of his relatives

    It’s amazing how a guy that comes across quite articulate and intelligent (bizarre I know!) can continue to do such stupid things. He had a tough up bringing by all accounts but so have most people, they don’t continuously do stuff like this. 

    Joey clearly has anger management  issues and can’t control himself, the footage of him fighting on the beach a couple of years ago, is a clear indicator of this. Time inside again probably won’t do it, he needs therapy.

    Michael Barton and Paul Taylor were convicted of the racially motivated murder of Anthony Walker. Barton was Joey’s younger brother and Taylor was their cousin. It was Taylor who delivered the fatal blow with the ice axe. I knew Taylor as he was at my place for a few years and was on the wing I worked on at the time. He was incredibly thick, lazy and just a horrible individual although he wasn’t a classic ‘hard man’. He’d melt when anyone put it on him. Just a rat who thought he was hard with a weapon in his hand and someone to back him up.

    He's been inside before and it hasn't changed him. The guy is nearly 40, if you're still a lunatic at that age then it's quite likely you're always going to be a lunatic. 

    You could forgive him if he was getting into these scrapes at 18/19/20, but not now. He's got 2 kids as well, fucking get a grip and grow up.

    2015:

    Barton admitted: "Everyone knows I have anger issues and on the pitch people are going to test my temperament.

    "I'm not a changed man because it's who I am. It's something inside me, a natural instinct that makes me stand and fight. I just continue to work at it."

    I'm unaware if he has tried anger management classes, but he really needs to either try them or try them again.

    This lad was awaiting his o'levels and was with a white girl . Barton's brother murdered him and Barton helped him to free to the continent if IRC. 

    Barton has also put a cigarette stub on a junior's cheek at Manchester City among other stomach churning things.

    Not correct. Barton and Taylor fled the country to Amsterdam after the murder. Joey Barton went a long way to persuading his brother and cousin to return to England to face justice.

    Joey Barton is undoubtedly a scumbag. However, this is an ongoing case and speculation helps nobody (that's how it goes, right?).

    I therefore declare this thread closed.

    I don't think we need to close the thread @Big_Bad_World, as Barton's previous activities are a matter of public record. However, you are correct that as it is an on-going case we need to be careful about speculating about any links between his previous behaviour and the TWO different bits of legal bother he appears to be currently embroiled in.

    It's progressing at the speed of an EFL investigation. Barnsley are on their 3rd permanent manager since Stendel!

    Former Premier League footballer Joey Barton has denied attacking his wife causing her a head injury.

    The Bristol Rovers manager appeared at Wimbledon Magistrates Court earlier via videolink.

    The 38-year-old was charged with assaulting Georgia McNeil by beating in Kew, London, on 2 June.

    He was released on unconditional bail until his trial at the same court on 16 December.
