Club’s known about it for 7 weeks. That's quite a grenade to launch without following it up....

Someone I once worked with disappeared over night after being jailed for an awful awful crime. The official line was that he just decided to leave but rumour got around not long after what he’d done and we were sick to the stomach at the thought of having worked with him. Pretty sure nobody even had a clue he was due in court. Why would the club be party to an investigation over an employee when the crime has nothing to do with the employer other than it relates to an employee of the club? Regardless Barton will surly have a contractual duty to inform the club of any issues like this, which may bring the club to the media's attention. If you’re the kind of person who has a history of violence and getting into trouble are you going to be upfront about these things or let them come out in the wash? I’m sure you and I both would be honest and upfront but sadly not everyone behaves in that way.

I felt the sick the day Barton was appointed. Now it feels like my club has died...

His track record speaks for itself. Unfortunately if this is true he will have to go. Such an idiot (…… if this is true) The timing could not be worse, but I guess one of his coaching staff will have a chance to step. A thought ‘ you really could not have made this up’…..
But hey we are the GAS and whilst players and managers come in go ‘we stick with it’’. It’s our club. Also, Wael certainly does not deserve this, whilst many will say we should never have considered him for the position anyway. It is what it is!
So who’s next in line ? …..for a golden opportunity at the start of a very interesting season to say the least. God help him whoever it is 😎

I was against Barton right from the very start, but believe me I take no joy in reading this. Feel extremely sorry for his wife, if the charge has any substance and I feel very sorry for the club and it’s fanbase who have firmly pinned their hopes and dreams on Joey being a success at the football club. Domestic violence is a real issue in this country unfortunately and I’ve got utter contempt for anyone found guilty of it. How can the charge not have substance when his own wife must have informed the police?

Glad I've not bought a shirt yet.
I'd be to ashamed to wear it.
He's got to go, I've unfollowed him on Twitter, not that its going to bother him, I just don't want to see anything he's got to say

The time he got banged up even though he assualted another person it was because that person hit his cousin which was a female which while not making it right I can see where he was coming from.
So for me to now try to defend him would be wrong and totally against my views when it comes to women getting hit by men.
I see some fans are saying why the club haven’t done anything but maybe they need to wait for him to be found guilty before they can take further action.
But then the fact that he has been allowed to bring players in still does seem very weird when they knew about this.

Domestic violence is a real issue in this country unfortunately and I’ve got utter contempt for anyone found guilty of it. The only person I feel sorry for is his wife. I certainly feel no sorrow for BRFC whatsoever - we've got EXACTLY what we deserved for appointing a known thug - a genuine sh*tstain on humanity. Let's not now cry because Joey Barton has done a Joey Barton. We will get absolutely everything we as a club deserve. Karma frankly. Yeah you’re right, it’s more the fanbase rather than the club I feel sorry for. People have got really excited for the new season and Barton’s new project, this will ultimately cast a huge cloud over it. The club took a gamble and it’s backfired on them massively. Wael has got to have known there was a fair likelihood of this sort of event happening. Got to be honest, I really don’t want to see Barton in the dugout for the Mansfield game now.

Innocent/guilty or not should never have been near the club. Trouble follows the bloke around

Can we afford (competition wise) to wait for him to get done for this? It could be months or even years and who knows he might add to the pending rap sheet in that time.
More importantly, can we afford (financially) to let him go before it’s official? Do we even have clauses? It would be so bristol rovers for us to not have bothered with adding clauses to cover criminal activity.
I’m normally a firm believer in innocent until proven guilty and withholding judgement until then but this is so shut and dry with his form.

How can the charge not have substance when his own wife must have informed the police? Maybe a neighbour heard rowing and called the police? They then saw that she had sustained some sort of head injury, and charged him.

Those posts clamouring for JB a few months ago have aged well. Maybe one day we'll just employ a bog standard manager who's seen it and done it rather than another experiment. Yep, it wasn't just the difference of opinion either, it was the tone from some of those wanting him towards those who had doubts. Still, if Widdrington was to take over, we can recoup some of the bad public with TW's son being on this year's Strictly.

Absolute joke. Where do we go from here. The CPS very rarely charge if not a pretty clear cut case so we now have two cases for violence hanging over our manager. I was beginning to worry that the pre season was looking a bit concerning with few games and COVID issues etc. Also thought JB had been very quiet and now we can see why. I hate to say it but bad news seems to follow JB around…… Ant thoughts on a new manager? You couldn’t make it up! Joey Barton creates the bad news Bizarre behaviour from him just days before the Stendel court case opened

This will have a knock on effect on his Stendel court case too. Being charged by the CPS for beating your wife is probably just about the most damning character reference you can get.
