Newcastles Barton has been jailed for assualt. If the term inside starts now and he only serves half he will not miss much football. Am sure he will get a nice hard time whilst inside though.

Just read a bit more detail.....he was on bail for two other offences. He is undoubtedly scum and it's good to see footballers not getting away with their belief they are untouchable because they kick a ball around...

Couldn't happen to a nicer bloke.
 
Am i just too cynical, or is it a strange co-incidence that he's been jailed a week after the end of the season, and in all probability will be released sometime in July in time to start pre-season training ?

Horrible horrible c*nt who should have been locked away for much longer than this
 
I've met him a few times through people I know and his actually a nice lad who had time for people.... obviously doesn't handle his drink well, but you shouldn't all judge him just on what you read in the media. The English press are quick to build someone up and even quicker to shoot erm down... have you heard both sides of this story? Or just the media's view? What he done was extremely thuggish but theres always two sides to a story.

Bang him up with the charmless Lee Bowyer & chuck the key away, sorted.

Exactly. Meet anyone outside of Southend and generally Stan the Man is absolutely depised thanks to the English media.

Makes you wonder if he were with a 'bigger' club if he would have got off a little lighter maybe!?!

Hope he gets an extended stay!

Barton is still awaiting trial for assaulting a team mate during a training session - presumably not alchohol fueled.
