should have got put in jail for a year. he's already stubbed a fag out in a teammates eye, punched a guy outside mcdonalds, and had plenty of other on field ABH/GBH incidents. if this was any normal human without a footballers wage then they'd be put in prison and given 12 months behind bars. the fact that this **** still gets to play football and will probably be signed by a promoted team sends completely the wrong message out to our kids; be a twat and you can still be a success. they banned rio for 9 months for missing a drugs test, with no evidence of drugs in his body, but ban mr barton for 3 months for assault and indirect battery.

well done FA, well done guys
