Joey Barton's reaction to the FA's handling of the John Terry racial abuse case
A series of Tweets from Joey Barton on the John Terry racial abuse saga has England's Attorney
General breathing hard down his neck. Barton's tweets summed up:
"This John Terry saga, has turned into one of the most hideously managed spectacles I have
ever known.
Anton, or is that your name? Now, touch my skin. Worship it.
One should ask the FA why they did such a thorough job investigating Luis Suarez's racial abuse
of Patrice Evra and then drop the ball on John Terry doing the same against Anton Ferdinand? Suarez
gets an eight match ban, while Terry gets rewarded with a deferment of his trial till after the
2012 Euro is over and retains his captaincy of the Three Lions to boot.
Here we go again with lip reading. The 2006 Zidane headbutt to Marco Materazzi's remarks and
more recently, the Sergio Busquets incident with Marcelo in last season's El Clasico which had oral
motor pundits giving their versions what was said.
This time it was John Terry, never the modicum of respectability, and marginally deserving of
England's captaincy exchange with Anton Ferdinand during the QPR match landing him in trouble.
