Dont feel sorry for Barton one bit, complete idiot, i'm sure Tevez wound him up but the way he acted afterwards ? Embarassing. To be fair i should like Barton, Barton doesnt get sent off and there wouldnt be 5 minutes injury time

Been a brilliant year for me football wise, Man City winning the league (Anyone apart from Man Utd !), Chelsea winning the CL, Reading getting promoted (get in), my mates teams getting promoted (West Ham and Southampton) and Bolton/Blackburn getting relegated ! Been a great year.

Just hope Reading stay up, hope the russian pumps in a bit of money for players.

Tevez didn't wind him up... He hit him, exactly the thing that Barton is being hauled over the coals for, and rightly so, but one shouldn't ignore the original offence. They both should've gone and both should be receiving punishment.

Yeah - a three or four game ban would have been about right for Tevez.

Happens quite often though, players trying to wind each other up like that with a cheeky elbow or push etc. At the end of the day as its Joey Barton people arent going to feel sorry for him, the way he acted afterwards was embarassing. Then he stupidly announced on twitter a teammate said to try and get someone sent off as you're going etc. Just an idiot.

Seems ripe for a caption competition I'd say!

[Mayhem]

Tevez and Barton misinterpret the rules to rock/paper/scissors, and both opt for "pointy finger"...

Well I heard it on talkSPORT and their source was The Sun so...

^ Where's that salt, I need a pinch.

I'll believe it when I see it, likewise I won't welcome Brendan Rodgers until I see the press conference at Anfield or Melwood.

Norwich have rejected his resignation according to latest reports.
