How many more chances does Joey Barton need?
The Newcastle midfielder was on the back pages again this morning after helping Newcastle to a much-needed win against high-flying Aston Villa, and getting himself embroiled in more controversy in the process.
Barton appeared to push Gabriel Agbonlahor in the face during the match which Newcastle won 2-0 to move off of the bottom of the league. The incident was not seen by officials, but disciplinary action could take place once Steve Bennett's referee's report and videos of the incident have been seen by the FA.
The ex-Man City midfielder proclaimed his innocence in the Newcastle Evening Chronicle saying “Nothing has gone on, people are making a mountain out of a mole hill."
Barton already has a 6-match suspended sentence lurking over him and it only seems a matter of time before the combative midfielder is on the back pages once again.
