In November 2005, Barton's 17-year-old half-brother Michael was convicted of the race murder of Liverpool student Anthony Walker. Anthony, who was 18 and black, was killed with an ice axe at McGoldrick Park in Huyton, Merseyside, in July 2005.

Joey Barton had made an appeal for his half-brother to give himself up and subsequently gave evidence during the trial. Michael Barton will serve a minimum of 17 years and 8 months behind bars. The Bartons' cousin Paul Taylor was jailed for 23 years and 8 months.

Joey Barton? Hes young and wouldnt cost much especialy if we could do a p/x with Hamann. He would probably want more games than he would get at Liverpool tho'.

--------------

Joey Barton is a liability off the field. He would cause massive problems in the locker room. He is also not really a defensive midfielder. He plays in more of a roaming attacking role in midfield.

on another note, I heard that his brother murdered someone with a chainsaw. I was like this boys fuucked

Boateng has already signed a new contract with middlesboro.
Whats his brother got to do with whether hes a good footballer or not?

I like Joey Barton. Infact istn he from Huyton aswell ? Im sure him and Stevie are mates. But ive heard hes partial to a few drinks. I also thought he played on the right but I could be wrong.

Barton plays central but im not sure if he can play DM. Apart from his behavioural problems I think he would be a good signing. Good passer, good shot, decent tackler and looks quite fast.

Did he ever sign that new contract with City in the end?

by **account deleted by request** » Tue Jul 04, 2006 4:31 pm

No not yet, he keeps delaying ,so he's still a bargain price player.

Could be worth risk but he would only be a squad player not regular which could decide his next club if he leaves city

We have Bellamy, maybe we will sign Jermaine Pennant, Anelka and maybe we might get Barton.

"crazygang or champion gang" ?

Yes sopt on he has been a big part of all our sucess in the last few years but im sure Rafa will find the right person to replace him.

It just goes to show that players may not propser with one team but flourish with another.

Who knows maybe Cisse could have blossomed with another team or maybe not.

I read in the Guardian online that Didi looks like giong to Man City on a free instead of Bolton and that Joey Barton may leave Man City as a result.
