Following the assault by a fan on Jack Grealish, that said fan was being shared by the FA, PFA & across every media outlet as a despicable human being of the highest order. He was also arrested, charged and had been sentenced to time in prison!! Yet its pretty quiet today ....Just saying!
In fairness, one was in front of the TV cameras the other was in private. We can all assume that this is entirely Barton’s fault as he’s a known thug and Stendel is completely innocent as he seems like a nice guy. But it’s only an assumption, and it’s up to SY police to find the truth. The good news is that it appears there are witnesses, but we’d be smart to ignore 80% of what’s been published (on this I reckon Fleetwood are absolutely correct) as anyone who knows what happened will have been told not to comment, so anyone commenting is likely guessing.
If Barton gets away with it it gives him (and any other Manager/Head Coach for that matter) free license to accost any Manager in the League as long as does it where the General Public can't see it.
To be fair that one was caught and camera and pretty clear to everyone what happened- this one probably needs to be investigated more
If I'm right and Given the fact anyone working with kids needs a cbs check no matter the work...how is there one law for most of us but yet it doesn't seem to apply to football... Surely the amount of contact Barton must have and has with kids within a football club beggars believe to how he manages to get licences to operate.. He's by no means a good role model and must be every parents nightmare... To think he plys his trade and it is deemed safe when his temper gets the better of him and he's prone to lashing out... No doubt he comes into contact with minors. . Should someone now be looking into this and revoking the licences ..
Just been on sky news there waiting referrees report too with barton to interview this week. Let him have his freedom while a solid case his built he'll get his comeuppance.
The Barnsley video team has it all on video Surely FA and police will want to look at it Should be a formality but you all know what Football is like
