Not a big team player is he?
The Haha's aren't a big team !!
If they'd have gone down he'd have been in a very awkward place, the fans and team mates would want to lynch him, he's got to be up for a massive ban. Also surprised there's been no mention of police action.
Tevez started they should change the rule and let it be like in hockey in USA fist fights than we would see if tevez and aguero would provoke anybody to fight, I don't think so. I wish they change the rule so that Ballotelli gets beat up. I can stand players pretending to be something special when they are only people who would work for minimum wage if football wasn't so popular game.
I hope he stays with them, he's just the sort of player they need.
There`s no I in team Joey, but there is in p**** 065.gif
which just about sums that scum bag up !
A nice quote from my mate Orm:
"Joey Barton didn't go crazy. Joey Barton just went Joey Barton!"
Short fuse for sure. And he must be massively frustrated about his poor season. He was not too shabby at Newcastle last season, but he was awful this season. I think there is a lot of frustration on his part as well. Still, he does not need to headbutt the greatest defender in the Prem.

when did he headbutt aaron hughes?
No, he head-butted Senderos...or was it Kelly?
Nogood "so confusing, isit" boyo
I hope they keep him and sign him on an extended contract ;p
Stub a cigar out in his eye?
I think he is just a liability and he needs to be kept in check, which Mark Hughes isn't doing. Mind you Sparky was a pretty aggressive player himself so maybe he thinks it's OK.
Anyway as he is such a liability to a team I hope he stays with QPR yee-haw!

Did the recipricant get blinded by that BTW, it's a awful thing to do?
apparently he was instructed by another player/coach to try and get one of theirs sent off if he got sent off. Thats what the provoking was all about.
Doesn't make it ok, but it does speak volumes about the QPR mentality.

Yes he said that in mitigation of his actions on Twitter last night.

Can do nothing but apologise to the players and the fans. Still don't think its a sending off. Tried to take 1 of their players with me....
Joseph Barton@Joey7Barton
The head was never gone at any stage, once I'd been sent off, one of our players suggested I should try to take 1 of theirs with me...

It sounds incredible, but Barton was boasting that this was what happened (or, there is an even worse interpretation of "take one of theirs with me").
If Hughes had any style (unlikely) he would do everyone a favour and ride this bum out of town. There is enough violence and danger about without paying the likes of Joey Barton 60 grand a week for his own unique contribution.
As I've said here before, the only club that should have Barton on its rolls is Wormwood Scrubs FC. He's a sub-human thug who needs to be off the street.
