    Surely at this stage the FA must be doing this crap deliberately to troll everyone? They couldnt be this reidiculous by accident.

    If I get another letter, I might have to consider retiring from international football in protest.........

    That's England's chances of winning the Euros gone so! :D

    If Barton has been warned for that, shouldn't the FA also warn any of the tv pundits that are still playing?

    Which it seems he had to allude to in his next tweet:
    @Joey7Barton Joseph Barton

    Irony on twitter occasionally goes over the head of some.......

    Perhaps but he is getting well paid on the head of those 1,133,025. He knows how to attract an audience.

    To be fair, its currently 1,136,079.

    You'll be receiving a letter from someone with regards to this false information you've presented.

    His tweets were amusing for a while...I am sure like a lot of people I lost any sense of respect for him when he said 'Mr's Browns Boys' was funny.

    I'd give him a pass on that because he is English and has not had the extreme levels of exposure to Brendan O'Carroll as any Irish person.

    You lost respect for him for liking a programme you didn't like?!?! Get over yourself. At least have a valid reason for not liking him.

    I don't mind the lad at all, talks a lot of jibberish at times though but better entertainment that a lot of other footballers on twitter.
