Downfall: Joey Barton - lawsuits, red cards, average football and a prison sentence
Published 1 year, 6 months ago
Description
A self-styled "outlaw", Barton was known more for his problematic antics on and off the pitch than any footballing brilliance during his turbulent career. Now retired from playing, the former Man City, Newcastle and QPR midfielder has apologised and agreed to pay damages to broadcaster Jeremy Vine following a series of offensive tweets falsely alluding to him being a pedophile, in posts seen by millions of users. Host: Tanitha Monihan. Guest: Enda Brady
