I think this "french accent" is a bit over the top. It's no Schteve thats for sure.



It's there but it just sounds like he is trying to make himself clear to the french journalists, and he keeps slipping back into his 'pool accent

Maybe Joey has adopted the french accent to get laid... certainly more attractive and more likely to get laid that with the horrible dutch one!

Classic stuff. To be honest I laughed a lot louder at this then with the Schteve McClaren interview from a couple of years ago......You'd think Barton was from Paris and was speaking broken English form the way he talkes.....It makes him look like a prized knob but.......lets admit it.....we've all been guilty of saying the odd work with a foreign accent twang by accident when we've been abroad and luckily gotten away with it!!

I find myself doing it by accident from time to time, if everyone I've spoken to says a word a particular way I end up slipping into "mispronouncing" it that way to try and make it easier for people to understand....:lol:

No way I'd "accidentally" do a full interview though, what's he doing the knob.

Sanctity, like a cat, abhors filth.
I think it is fair enough to be honest. I imagine some French hacks would struggle with a Scouse accent, but I cant imagine any of them had any trouble understanding what he was saying here. Nowhere near as funny as the McLaren one when he was at Twente.

I do this all the time when I go abroad.

Maybe not with the accent, but I do talk in sentence fragments and say things that I never would to a natural speaker.

That and I talk German to people that I know can't speak it in order to get away from them, e.g. Club Reps in Magaluf.

He's not happy about an article Martin Samuel wrote.

Gay hero? Surely there's only one man to herald football's watershed moment... step forward Joey Barton

Could just one footballer please come out and be gay, so everybody can be really cool about it and the sport can get on with its life? Just one, it’s not much to ask surely?
Football is beginning to sound a little desperate with its pleading. Rugby, cricket, they’ve all had their gay watershed moment.

And until football does, too, it will continue to be presumed that the sport has not evolved enough to handle male homosexuality.
(Hope Powell, the manager of England’s women, has been openly gay for years, without comment, yet that does not seem to count.)
The gay pressure group, Stonewall, has called again for football to tackle its ‘culture of fear’, while Anders Lindegaard, the Manchester United goalkeeper, has said that football needs a ‘gay hero’.
So here’s a thought. Joey Barton continues his quest for intellectual and social respectability. Why not come out as gay?

Instant credibility, instant respect, untouchable by the Football Association or future employers. His past misdeeds mentally reprocessed and explained.
‘Well, of course he put his cigar out in that bloke’s face, Gary. He was a tortured soul, forced to live a lie.’
And imagine the new material. A never-ending treasure trove for Barton’s Twitter feed: Alexander the Great, Leonardo da Vinci, Oscar Wilde, Lady Bunny.
And, let’s face it, with that new accent, he’s probably halfway there.

Barton's response:

I will probably have to sue. I don't really need the money or the hassle. So I offer this as a olive branch.
Actually, no. Theres no olive branch. Enough's enough.
I've put a call in to colleagues of Martin's asking him to call me and explain his piece and his homophobia in general.
I shall wait for his retort before I decide what to do. Its actually a disgusting piece. That says more about him and his outlook.
Such a strange article to write.

It's a rubbish article with no discernible point, motivated by spite from what I can see. That said the only reason he has to be pissed off is because he's obviously needlessly taking the piss out of him.

Provocative article in the Daily Mail serves no purpose and is purportedly homophobic shock!

Barton's overreacting but it's odd since Samuel is usually a very good writer, and it's a complete nonsense piece.

Did they actually print that nonsense? It doesn't get much more pathetic and juvenile than that there. But yeah, it's the Mail. Samuel must've really sold his soul.

As much as I think Barton is an idiot wtf are those journos all about now. They walk about thinking they have the right to comment their opinion on everything that happens. Just write it as it happens and print the opinions of football people not interested on what you have to say. I can't take much more of Sunday supplement with the journos with hair bands stupid scarves and dyed hair they are the vainest bunch of all.

It got RT'd into my timeline so I went and had a look for myself. Barton was eviscerated, I am expecting to hear reports of him going out and taking it out on a poor random Frenchman in Marseille.

What did Hamann say to Barton to get him that riled up?

feck me.
Barton slagging off Newcastle for missing out on Remy. Hamann reminding him that Newcastle paid him lots of cash. (Most of which while he was in jail)

It's always unfair, these verbal battles when one has such a problem with the language. Feel bad for Barton.
Only Joey Barton can get the people of England to take the side of a German.
