    Mr Barton, meet Lenghty ban.
    What a complete and utter cunt. He must have been dropped on the floor as a baby. Several times.

  2. thisISben says:

    Just ban the twat from football already

  3. Stiff says:

    Why does everyone hate him so much? He’s fucking hilarious.

  4. Gaga says:

    Why didn’t Mario/Micah smash his face in ?

  5. SL says:

    What an embarrassing reaction from Aguero.

    Hopefully this is the last we will see of Barton at QPR. surely he has to leave now?

  6. Toz says:

    Don’t understand the polarization of Barton; there are a boat load of other players who commit such indiscretions and get away with it.

  7. Hey ma, get off tha dang roof! says:

    I know Barton’s a complete prick, but what did he actually do here? It looks like the act of violence is just off screen. Also, what did he do to Tevez?

  8. MGJ says:

    Although I can’t condone his behaviour (and Aguero’s falling like a baby), I absolutely love the conviction in his face when he goes for Aguero!

  9. Alf says:

    He in no way ‘kicked carlos tevez up in the air’. what game were you watching?

  10. Marty says:

    Watch Vincent Kompany’s chest push after the knee. too much powa

  11. Inno says:

    see his explanation? Knew he was going off, figured he might try and take one of theirs with him! What a model professional…

  12. syndex says:

    So let me guess rangers next (if they can afford him) if not the wonders of the Turkish league, good bye, good ridance and don’t let the door hit you on the bum on the way out of the top tier of football.

  13. Jarren says:

    @MGJ: Totally agree. He’s fucking mental but the reaction of Aguero summed up the worst aspect of football at present.

  14. Anonymous says:

    To his credit, Joey didn’t call any one a negro. That would have been a travesty.

  15. pray4muamba says:

    ballotelli picks up a couple red cards for stupid challenges. his punishment is being almost kicked out of manchester city. barton picks up countless red cards for even more stupid challenges. his puncishment is to be captain of his team. irony.

  16. Jamie says:

    He probably thought “right, if i’m getting sent off, you’re getting a dead leg.” Btw for everyone complaining about Aguero, if Barton did him properly that will have hurt like hell. Let’s hope QPR sack him or loan him to Barnet next season.

  17. Eddy says:

    Am I the only one that loves joey barton?!!

  18. Scott says:

    Brave man to do that with Lescott and Kompany in the vicinity. Not to mention Richards!

  19. tit face says:

    Wonder if his parents are proud?
    one is prison for murder, the other simply an utter cunt.

    Would have liked it if he did that to Nasri, and if Mario didnt run off as soon as Barton attempted to approach him

  20. Jarren says:

    @pray4muamba: Balotelli is lucky not to pick up more reds than he already has.

    That tackle on Song in the Arsenal game was potentially career-threatening, and it didn’t even get a free kick.

    Maybe he doesn’t go in with any malice, but that’s beside the point.

    Don’t go saying Balotelli is some kind of victim compared to Barton.

  21. […] West London side’s grace-under-pressure defending, Barton reminded Man City fans that despite the talk of pacifism on Twitter, Barton’s still the powder keg he always […]

  22. farmanian96 says:

    remember the balotelli stamp on parker??

  23. Al says:

    the annoyimng thing about Barton is that he is on twitter pontificating and throwing in quotes from classic books and poems (easily found on google by the way, just saying) and then can’t behave himself for a mere 90 minutes to do the thing he gets paid ridiculous money to do, you can quote George Orwell all you like but if your a scum bag your a scum bag

  24. SS says:

    Barton is a fucking god!!

  25. Ross says:

    It would of been interesting to see QPR’s reaction if they had went down….Barton would of been chased out of London!
    He is always liable to fuck up, don’t understand why clubs offer him contracts to be honest.

  26. Chris Forenzi says:

    Barton is awesome, he did the right thing to try save his club (after making a mistake).
    Linekar and Shearer are pretty sh*t(as humans) if you think about it.

    There are two truth’s… nobody wanted Man City to win and nobody wants Chelsea to win this weekend except their own supporters and the media.

    Lol Chris, are you part of the ‘KSI Army’? ;D
