Joey Barton attack

[rich1471]

Apparently Police are investigating an alleged assault by Barton on Stendel in the tunnel?

[firestarter]

Once an arsehole always an arsehole!

[Bollinger]

Still only 'alleged' but now being reported on Sky, Yorkshire Post and other places.

Hopefully this will be the end of the scumbag.

[Branton Rover]

Where’s Albrighton & big Leo to put the little shit in his place all over again

[Guernsey Exile]

Is he even worth a mention. t**t of the highest

It's been confirmed by Barnsley. SYP investigating.

Rigo will be along shortly to tell us again what a great bloke he is.

[tyke1962]

Head butted Stendel in the tunnel causing Daniel to lose two teeth apparently .

Tried the flee the scene in his car afterwards but was stopped by SYP .

Absolutely disgraceful , Fleetwood should terminate his contract and he should be looking at a custodial sentence given his previous .

His team today played like a bunch of sunday morning thugs and got what they deserved , a footballing lesson .

Barton clearly sent his team out to kick us off the park and it backfired on him spectacularly .

Barton should now be finished in this game , no place for thugs like him .

[Drover]

Hope Fleetwood beat Posh and terminate Barton's contract,Would be win-win.

[RoversAlias]

If he has done that, he wants sacking and banning from the sport. A complete waste of space who doesn't deserve the spotlight.

Rigo said

None of us have seen it, so who are any of us to be passing comment?


That has never stopped anyone on this forum before, why should we start now?

[rich1471]

you only have to watch the video to know he did something , he was trying to get out of their quick , innocent people don't run.

They did the same to us in the game at our place. Kicked the crap out of us and the ref let them do it. Awful.

Those two Fleetwood w**kers trying to stop the filming. f**k right off.

[redwine]

Hasn't worked, though has it.

Can hardly blame them?

Their gaffer gets accused of assault, which they may or may not have witnessed, and there’s then someone filming the coppers trying to speak to him moments later.

Folk can film where they like but from a PR perspective, Fleetwood will want to try and keep this juicy gossip firmly ‘in house’ with the media nowhere near it.

No one does a runner if they are innocent, only guilty people run away

If Fleetwood had any concern about PR then surely you’d have to question why they appointed Joey Barton in the first place. Or signed Ched Evans.

What Barton is alleged to have done today is indefensible. And it’s not out of character for him either.

A troubled individual he may be, but a great bloke he is not.

[rich1471]

from twitter before it was removed from Woodrow, who scored Barnsley's second goal in their 4-2 win, tweeted that Stendel had been left with "blood pouring from his face" before taking the post down.

[Bezza]

If Tyke is right ,it. will be interesting to see what Fleetwood do about it, for me if guilty he needs banning from the game

[rtid88]

Should be locked up for assault and never be allowed near the game again.... Scumbag of the highest order!!

[Padge_DRFC]

Once a tosser always a tosser

[albie]

If the reports are true, it is gross misconduct at the very least....which is a reason to terminate his contract.

There is also the possibility of charges for assault, which should bring him before the courts.
If he has form, that will count against him.

makes you wonder exactly what the Barnsley manager said to him

hope he didn't

there is a "technical term" for what "allegedly" happened

Let's be clear here Stendel isn't a Warnock or anything like that .

Barton sent his team out in the second half to kick us and intimidate us after chasing shadows in the first half and two goals down , it wasn't too long before their centre half got a straight red .

Some of the things his players got up to today were over the line , really nasty with the intent to cause serious damage to our players .

What clearly rattled Barton was the fact it didn't work , we stood up to them and didn't back away an inch .

Clearly Barton had to leave Oakwell today with some kind of badge , the badge that's only recognised on the streets of Huyton where he grew up .

I sincerely hope I never see Barton again inside a football stadium in a paid capacity .

[since-1969]

Reputation is everything and Joey Barton certainly has a reputation! If guilty of causing physical harm by way of an assault on another manager then a life ban should be the minimum he gets .

Good point Tyke - they were pretty cynical v us at Home. I think that was the game when someone said on here - the only safe way not be be fouled was to have the Ball at your feet at all times - as there was so much off the Ball action

The only bit of your piece I dont agree with is "on the streets of Huyton where he grew up" IMO he never did grow up.

I dislike him with a passion and in "real life" he would not get away with some of what he has done to date !

Totally unlikely Rovers would EVER have employed him even before whatever happened yesterday (best not to speculate) but if they did I WOULD not set foot in the Keepmoat while he was part of the set up

[Jimmydee]

A couple of the Plymouth players were off the ball thugs throughout the game, Wilkes and Butler had their share of elbows and kicks.
