The Year Of The Fox Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 Just been reading about this online. It's intriguing stuff (well it is to me) http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/queens-park-rangers/9801632/Joey-Barton-and-former-Liverpool-and-Man-City-midfielder-Dietmar-Hamann-in-frankly-hilarious-Twitter-altercation.html
Fox92 Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 Read it yesterday. Hamann was 100x the player Barton will ever be, and a better professional.
The Year Of The Fox Posted 19 January 2013 Author Posted 19 January 2013 Read it yesterday. Hamann was 100x the player Barton will ever be, and a better professional. I wonder whether any accusations levelled at Hamann have any substance behind them
Fox92 Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 I wonder whether any accusations levelled at Hamann have any substance behind them He once admitted to having a gambling problem, and said he lost £200,000 in one day (that's from wiki). But I do personally remember he got banned from driving. Anyhow, Barton just comes across as a total dick, even though he has said sorry now apparently.
Soar Fox Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 Joey Barton really is a vile man. If he wasn't a footballer I'm sure he'd be doing time in prison for murder or GBH. All the things he's done in the past I'm surprised people keep giving him contracts. What do you expect from a man who's half brother and cousin are doing time in prison for a racist murder.

That is the thing about Barton he doesn't think and he always ends up being wrong and sorry for his actions.
Fox92 Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 Agreed, I once read he stubbed out a cigarette in a youth players eye.
The Year Of The Fox Posted 19 January 2013 Author Posted 19 January 2013 Twitter is just more trouble than its worth for celebrities. If they want to connect with the fans there are far better ways to do so. That centre back for Swansea is one example.
Soar Fox Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 "Barton is a patron of the Tamsin Gulvin Fund, a charity set up to support people who have addiction problems and no financial support" So he's a patron for people with addiction problems and no financial support, but he goes on a social network site and mocks a man who he knows has had a gambling problem. He then says Hamman wouldn't be able to afford bus fare. Just shows how much of a **** he really is.
Corky Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 Barton will never be the player Hamann was, don't know why Hamann is responding to Barton.
Guest Bilo Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 "Barton is a patron of the Tamsin Gulvin Fund, a charity set up to support people who have addiction problems and no financial support" So he's a patron for people with addiction problems and no financial support, but he goes on a social network site and mocks a man who he knows has had a gambling problem. He then says Hamman wouldn't be able to afford bus fare. Just shows how much of a **** he really is. Barton has two faces. The face of the man who's 'the thinking footballer,' the man who quotes Nietzsche and opposes homophobia. Scratch beneath that thin veneer and you have a violent, judgemental thug who spends much of his time behaving like an angry, strategically shaved ape. The bloke's a cvnt.
Alexikokopops Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 u WHERE a good player Oh dear Joey. Oh dear. Agreed, I once read he stubbed out a cigarette in a youth players eye. Not only that, HE TURNED HIM INTO A GIRLFRIEND BEATER!!!!
Vacamion Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 7 ^^^^ "And after that...well, the game was mine..."
AdamN Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 All the things he's done in the past I'm surprised people keep giving him contracts. This gets me every time he signs for a new club. Regardless of how good he is, why do managers want to work with such a horrible little dickhead?
Fox92 Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 This gets me every time he signs for a new club. Regardless of how good he is, why do managers want to work with such a horrible little dickhead? Agreed. I think Pardew just wanted to get him out of the club, hence why he went for free.
Carl the Llama Posted 19 January 2013 Posted 19 January 2013 Oh dear Joey. Oh dear. Wasn't even the first time he made that error. So much for the 'literate footballing philosopher' nobody outside of the press believed him to be.
Mack Posted 20 January 2013 Posted 20 January 2013 Most of us knew one. The lad at school with a motor mouth and lack of brains as to when to close it. The friend of a friend who once came out for a beer with you and your mates and you just knew he was going to get a hiding because he was a complete mouthy cock and one smell of the shandy and he was away. Barton is one of these people. Forget the demons and excuses, he is a walking talking row. He could start a row with himself, has no class, respect, humility or ability to see another point of view. In addition he is a spiteful poisonous turd when he goes on the attack. I am quite sure he will one day get what is coming to him.
