Now he’s said some bad things on Twitter apparently he has no chance of a job. Can you not see a problem here? 

You’re still struggling pal

Just re-read my post above. You know, the bit you made extra effort to put in bold..

The problems started before he decided to become a Twitter warrior.

The problems have always been there and he’s always got jobs. Now he’s posted a few things on Twitter (the kind of stuff that’s regularly posted on Twitter, Facebook, here etc) he’s got mental health issues and won’t get a job again (highly unlikely he’s looking for a job)

Aye but can you imagine the meltdown if a club employs him as a manager now?

Nobody in their right mind would employ him because of the backlash.

In todays 'woke' world he doesnt stand a chance.

He will end up at GB news or summet.

Makes you wonder how Ricky Gervais is so successful.

Not really.

One makes jokes that aren't necessarily his opinion. One gives his opinion as 'facts'.

Aye

He’s not helping himself, not that he cares.

 He seems to have finally realised that he’s no longer wanted in the game. And from his previous choices, he probably wanted to stay in it.

Id say he’s just letting loose on Twitter now he’s come to that realisation. 
 

Not sure what you’re getting at with the mental health issues.

A few on here have hinted he’s got mental health issues because of a Twitter rant.

He's funny. Really funny.

Joey Barton is as funny as cancer.

The lad has openly admitted to suffering depression and a serious mental health decline when his managerial career took a hit. 

Not that it should be used against him on this. 

It's more about him being incredibly bitter about it all and lashing out at everyone else.

I think it was pretty obvious during his playing career that he had metal health issues.

So why you are you moaning about others hinting that he does? 
 

We’re going full circle here haha

Because running around dressed as Jimmy Savile stubbing Fags into kids eyes (amongst a massive list of other things) aren’t really the actions of someone who Is firing on all cylinders. 
 

His tweets are just his views on what he sees happening, if you and others think he has mental health issues because of those then so be it. 
 

It’s all this social media bollocks, people are forgetting what has actually happened and what hes done in “real life” (for wanting a better phrase) and basing everything on his social media posts.

That level of cuntishness has to supported by some level disorder in the head, surely. 

Abuse as a child, bad environment, whatever- something somewhere fucked them up. 

It can't be natural to behave like he does.

He should get some help, but at the moment he's losing the plot on social media, and probably loving it. Which may be reinforces his cuntishness.

Won't happen, but it would probably be for the best if every one just ignored him. Completely.

Nobody said it was only because of his tweets 😂

& nobody had forgot what else he'd done in his life. Most people on a football forum will have some idea of his history 😂

You've backtracked and now you're making stuff up. Time for bed lad.

Just a massive coincidence that people only mentioned it after he’s gone on his Twitter marathon. 🙄

Listen to his 3hr podcast with James English..... I personally don't think it's mental health issues, he's just a cunt.... It happens. Fwiw I listened with an open mind but on every occasion where he has been violent he makes out that it wasn't his fault & then says he hates bullies 😂

Yeah

You're probably right. 

I don't think anyone even knew who he was or the drama he'd been involved in 🙄 

Been having a read of his wiki 

This was his stance on gay footballers which doesn't appear to sit alongside his current stance on women and trans 

The guy is a prick 

He described lack of any openly gay players in English professional football as "a subject that's quite close to my heart", as his uncle is gay. He stated his belief that there would be an openly gay player "within the next 10 years" and expressed his fear that "certain managers ... will discriminate against people" but that he feels "more fool them, and their lack of social awareness and intelligence" and wants his generation's legacy to "help not only change the game for the better, and change the teams that they played in, but also change the culture and change the society and the football clubs that they played at.

Joey Barton was / is always a twat. Same as Ricky Gervais.

Given he has taken that stance now not sure who would want to employ him ? Maybe a few gigs here and there for shock value which will lead for him having to be more shocking. I imagine in his eyes he is playing the game and winning. 

Spot on. He is on a one way trip to irrelevance. This may be what is driving him with all these controversial tweets - the realisation of where he is headed.

The outraged mob are giving him the oxygen of publicity. Won't last.

Other than murderous terrorists, I would not wish anyone be stabbed to death though, Publicity wise, Barton will just die a natural death.

I'm looking to find some common ground here.

Do we all agree that Joey Barton is a prick, has always been a prick, and is likely to continue always being a prick? 

Have we got any dissenters from this position? 😁

Very much doubt it. Wishing him stabbed to death though?
