WELCOME TO LONDON JOEY BARTON


There are many reasons to dislike Joey Barton but at least three to think him not all bad. In reverse order:

3. When Frank Lampard refused to sit next to him on England duty, Barton reportedly said “It’s alright, I’m not going to steal your breakfast, you fat prick”.

2. For a footballer, he has surprisingly acceptable music taste. His Twitter profile quotes lyrics from "Still Ill" by The Smiths.

1. Today he signed for Queen’s Park Rangers.

Gonna be fun. Good luck Joey. Good luck QPR.

  1. Shopped his racist murderer cousin as well, didn't he?

    Interesting piece on the Beeb website about him and how Tony Adams' counselling place has helped him turn things round.

    But he still ain't Pat Nevin.

  2. I'm not convinced his - how shall we put this - anger management issues are behind him. Hope so.
