[Rumour]

Good riddance.

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

Hopefully that's him retired now. Cba with anymore Joey Barton stories.

 

[Garrincha]

Seems a bit harsh but he certainly got of lightly in the past so karma I guess.

There was a rumour that Buffon used to bet on himself not to concede which I loved! (Alleged).

Of course we'll probably get him as a bloody pundit on the BBC now, they love fine upstanding citizens.:confused:

Him and Savage would make a fine duo

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Ahahaha what a c**t. What a way to end a nothing career

 

[Rimaal]

That's his career over. Wonder if he would consider the Indian league?

As long as they hate Arsenal.

 

[Juan Matas Beard]

"If the FA is truly serious about tackling the culture of gambling in football, it needs to look at its own dependence on the gambling companies, their role in football and in sports broadcasting, rather than just blaming the players who place a bet."

Good point tbh.

@GDeep™ Maybe you can share some incite on this mental process? With your high wages and betting history.

****.

 

[mm76]

probably the end of Burnley in the PL too, sinking like a stone and now without a player who yes is a 100% c**t but has been useful for them

His statement was a good read to be honest. Very harsh to get 18 months when there were no allegations of match-fixing either.

Maybe so, but this is a scumbag whose career highlights include stubbing a lit cigar in someone's eye. I mean, wtf? That's the sort of sh*t you'd see in a Tarantino torture scene.

Or a Guy Ritchie side character.

He was young, and the kid probably asked for it.

The ban is fair though, you know the rules. Bet on the tennis, darts and cricket like I do ffs, much easier than betting on football also.

 

[GDeep™]

You guys are absolute wankers though, so quick to lay into Barton.

It's because he's Joey Barton. I suppose he had it coming.

The FA finally decided to make a statement.
