It’s All Bard and Barton of Football

It’s a Happy New Year from him, and a Happy New year to him, as John and Alex catch up after Footy on the Med’s festive hiatus. Alex is again marooned in a frozen land (England), but John is still roaming the Mediterranean or, at least, Menton. John updates Alex on key French football happenings. Alex tells John about Joey Barton’s crusade to rid the world of female football pundits. And then a strange thing happens. It is a poem. About Mr Barton. And it’s here, on FOTM 54.
