Anyone got a link to a vid showing the tackle ?

What a waste of fucking DNA the lad is... or was it cynical move on Barton's part to force a move come the end of the season when Toon drops to the fizzy pop league ? Or am I crediting the lad with too much intelligence ?

Apparently suspended for clashing with Shearer after the game & not the tackle itself...

Could have been a lot worse!! As they said on MOTD it could have ended Xabi Alonso's career

The bloke is a complete idiot

The guy was at the corner flag and Barton just took him out definite red card
