“Joey Barton could be in legal hot water after an extraordinary rant about his Bristol Rovers predecessors. Barton was appointed Rovers manager in late February, replacing Paul Tisdale, who himself only succeeded Ben Garner in November. Sportsmail understands legal action is being considered and lawyers have been contacted after Barton accused the pair of negligence and labelled their training sessions a 'farce'. Rovers were two points above the League One relegation zone when Barton took over and he has overseen just two wins from 10 games. But before the 1-0 defeat by Sunderland on Saturday, Barton pointed the finger at Garner and Tisdale, saying: 'They've set these boys up for failure and we've got to try to reverse that trend. 'Whatever has gone before me has been negligent. If they were doctors, they should certainly be struck off for what's gone on here before. I could show you the footage of the training sessions. They're a farce. It wasn't done correctly. 'How do I know that? Look at the league table. Look at the fact two managers have been removed from the job. Two-and-a-half-hour sessions on a Friday — what chance have the lads got? It's like having a 15-round spar the night before you have a 12-round scrap. What chance have you got? You're going to get your head punched in. 'It's because they don't know what it's like to go in the ring, the Colosseum. They've read it in a book and they've done it on a course and they don't know. It's criminal.' Barton may now have a legal case to answer and he had appeared braced for a comeback when he added: 'Those coaches will probably want to take me to task on that and I'll have absolutely no issue in showing them exactly what they got wrong and where they got it wrong, and they'll be better coaches for it. 'If they want to get on the phone and have a conversation with me, no problem at all.'” www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9415739/Joey-Barton-face-legal-battle-Bristol-Rovers-predecessors-Paul-Tisdale-Ben-Garner.html

He has the worst record in the top seven divisions in English football...how can he criticise others?

Why would they struggled to get a job, they haven’t done anything wrong other than failing to get the results we’d like...on the other hand, they may well have been defamed by a thick as mince egotistical jailbird with a record at Rovers which is undeniably worse than either of them. You need to get your head out of the sand, this isn’t getting any better.

I see why they are doing it though, alleging professional negligence is something different to saying that they did something poorly because it implies they failed to carry out their duties or were careless in doing them instead of just being a underperforming coach. You wouldn’t really want those kind of allegations hanging around you. The fans might love to hear that kind of thing but beside being potentially libellous, it’s just not very classy.

This country is becoming litigious akin to the USA. How on earth can we have a legal system that supports "they said I was a bad manager and now I'm upset so I want some money please"

It's not classy from Barton I'll agree, but them taking legal action to Barton/their previous employer because the manager said, "Whatever has gone before me has been negligent." is frankly ridiculous. As a manager you have to ignore the outside criticism and if anyone interviews you on it, you explain why/how he's wrong and just sour grapes.

How on earth can we have a legal system that supports "they said I was a bad manager and now I'm upset so I want some money please" All they’ve sought is legal advice so far. Could just be that the lawyers have come back and said no you have no case, and somehow its leaked to the press who have published it because the headline “Barton sued by ex managers” sells papers.

As Garner has coached at a very high level for several years and Tisdale has managed around 1,000 games, both are considerably more experienced (not necessarily better) at coaching than Barton. To say they are ‘negligent’ leaves him potentially open to a charge of slander, unless he is very sure of his ground. It’s one thing to say someone underperformed, to say they were negligent is a whole different level.

You need to get your head out of the sand, this isn’t getting any better.What are you going on about? Seven points from thirty, accusing others of negligence, “they’d be struck off if they were doctors”, pending case for abh, possible defamation case, players are useless, referees are useless, cancer running through club...he’s only been here 5 weeks ffs and there’s something new and totally ridiculous every day. His job is to win football matches, not to give press conferences trying to defend his record which is the worst in the top seven leagues of the English game. I repeat, you need to get your head out of the sand.
