Madder than a box of frogs!
He IS right though, Panellists, radio commentators, ex players regularly give THEIR opinions on fixtures…so why he be gagged.
Like him or loathe him,I’d always have him in MY side than against me. Not the first / last player to have a very short fuse. Segio Ramos sent off for the THIRTEENTH time in his short career already, maybe another nutjob..but there would still be a queue a mile long to sign him if they thought they had a chance. Just like Roy Keane, Patrick Vieira and a host of others before him they like the publicity.
The difference is while Barton’s a knob jockey and always will be, acts the big man but if l remember right he cried like a little bitch when he got pretty much a weekender and he’s not actually that good at football. HAIL HAIL
