Fuck right off. 

The FA have admitted that she was the victim of racism, they’ve also admitted that another player was at the same time, but all you can offer is “She did an effective job of calling out racism, and she shouldn’t have done that.”

What should victims of racism do - shut the fuck up and accept it?

I would never use the FA to be the standard bearers for actual racism in any case.

The FA weren’t the standard bearers. They repeatedly denied the racism, until there was a proper outside investigation. Then they apologised.

Imo Barton is just an attention seeking, band wagon jumping dickhead. He's an irrelevance, good, stay that way.

 

I have no issue with women in football either, but let's be real, women's football is shite, the world champions would get trashed by a pissed up Sunday league side, and although the vast majority of women pundits and commentators are fucking pathetic, so too are the vast majority of male pundits and commentators.

I agree with most of that, except the bit I've put in bold, which, with respect, is a load of steaming shit mate. It's a different game from the man's game but it's not shite at all. Just because you don't like something, that doesn't make it shite.

It is a bit shite though...

The standard is low and were there a men's game of similar standard on telly very few people would watch it. I don't really understand the reluctance to admit as much. 

 

Who is the best women's team in the world? Barcelona or Wolfsburg? They'd both get absolutely obliterated by a mid table Isthmian league side. And that's fine, who cares? 

 

Women's cricket suffers from the same thing of having to pretend everything is great. It isn't. I can fucking see the speed gun clocking the bowlers at speeds I regularly face in club cricket. I can see the boundaries having to be brought in 25 yards because women literally couldn't hit the ball far enough to score any fours or sixes on a full size pitch.

 

The same is the case with women's football. Decent techniques, pretty good standard in the middle third of the pitch. Utter shit in either penalty box, and a complete lack of intensity to games.

He's off on one again, this time he's having a pop at Gary Neville.

 

He's a tool trying to stay in the limelight but it did make me laugh at him calling Neville a shop steward and signing off with 'stick to Dragons Den you little tit'

 

Can I really hate Joey Barton and still think 'stick to Dragons Den you little tit' is funny.

 

He's going to get sued by Jeremy Vine very soon, and I read that the likely outcome will be bankruptcy.  

 

To stay afloat, he'll have to make loads of racist comments and then start a Crowd Funder on the back of them.  They love to give their money to racists that lot.

Peter Lim isn't it? 

 

Barton is correct, Neville is a little tit.

Barton is a massive cunt.

I just knew Barton was the kind of cunt who says "the proof is in the pudding".

 

And he thinks that "shop steward" is an insult against someone who actually was (to his absolute credit) a shop steward. 

 

Barton is a shit.

We think too much alike. I'd be quite happy to have 'Shop Steward' as an insult as it indicates what complete know nothing Barton is. I'm no fan of Neville but if I was savaged by Barton I'd consider it an attack by sheep in wolf's clothing.*

Barton is a little prick. But he's spot on about the Salford stuff. Neville loves to make himself out to be some sort of good guy fighting against the powers when he was happy to spend his way to become a league team and sack managers at the same rate as Watford would
