Interesting Matthew Syed piece about Joey Barton in the Times today
Sorry I can't link to it, I read it on paper and the e version is behind a paywall!
Anyway, it's about Barton's background -makes you see that although Barton is a knob, he's the product of his environment.
Also interesting stuff about a guy called Peter Kay, who founded Sporting Chance
