The horrible Joey Barton at it...

He's probably right maybe he could score 100 out 100 against her, too be honest I'd never heard of Mary Earps, and wouldn't recognise her if she was sat in the same room as me, and that doesn't make me a pr*ck.

Not a chance he'd score 100/100 against any pro keeper, male or female.

What's his point though? Because of physiological factors men tend to be better at football than women, is anyone denying that? So what.
Does it decrease the achievements of elite athletes who have achieved a lot more than their male counterparts playing for England? Much, much more than Barton achieved.

I think his point is that he’s terrified of successful women. I can understand that attitude back in the eighties but this days it just makes him look a bit sad.

And you’re right, it’s a ridiculous comparison. Any sport could use that example and it would be equally ridiculous. To use rugby: Freddie Steward could break an Ellie Kildunne tackle 100 times out of 100. That doesn’t stop her being 6 nations and WXV champion this year and him, well, not

I'd still bet good money he wouldn't score 100/100 against her though.
 
He’s attempting to attach himself to the most newsworthy name in English football at the current time. Earps is all over the media and social media and Barton fancies hanging on the coat-tails. He’s just a massive c*nt. Always has been and probably always will be. Earps shouldn’t even dignify him with a response.

Always felt that chant was a little too passive aggressive by the Holgate.. some of the kater verses were verging on total rudeness
.
Where did that chant come from anyone know...he always seemed like a good guy...

Not rude, but horrifically misogynistic.

One of the replies pointed out he’d previously commented on women’s football and was inclined to tweet his opinions too…

Sort of shuts his point down pretty well.. (or enforces it 🤷🏼‍♂️ 😏)

I think someone having the opinion women aren’t the best qualified to comment on the men’s game is fine… but if they’re gonna air it in public like that then they need to prepare for a back lash…

I’m no tactical genius, but Mrs Ruthsayer is. Assess the opposition and tactics in the first five minutes. The rest of us (males) just nod as if we already knew.
 
Nedum Onuoha had a go on Under the Cosh not too long ago, talked a lot about Barton and his influence etc. Was quite interesting.

He is definitely a knob, as much for his combative style as for his views. Mind you, he comes across like a man on the edge on X, like he might be legitimately ill.

I do find identity politics nauseating, but he himself is indulging in it with that very post.

I think he’s trying to seperate men’s football from women’s. Saying they’re a different game.

Everyone knows it’s not at the same level, his point is women shouldn’t be allowed to speak about mens football because it’s an entirely different game.

But if he’s going down that route. Then he shouldn’t be allowed to pass opinion on anything other than mid-table mediocrity or assault.
 
He's just trying to whip up the idiotic b***ds of the world for attention, sadly there are many of them and they're not hard to rile up.
 
He seems to have decided on his target audience and is promoting himself as a Steve Bannon for the Footy Lads Alliance. It's both calculated but clumsy.
 
Should effectively be career suicide for him this, but some idiot will no doubt still give him another job.

I mean if his past misdemeanours haven't put them off before, this is going to be unlikely to.

Amazing how many fall for the pseudo intellectual act. But there are a lot of gullible people in this country.

I have no idea who this is, but i'm guessing it's another example of your completely shameless misogynistic posting on this board

Edit - turns out it's Lianne Sanderson, frequently outspoken ex-England player. Still, no need for the misogyny.
