Joey Barton: Genius or Nutter?
BBC article, 'What's behind his Twitter philosophy'
"Violence always comes from a place of misunderstanding and low to zero self-worth, well mine did anyway"
At the last count @Joey7Barton had more than 450,000 followers. It's less than half the total of England striker Wayne Rooney, but Barton tweets on subjects far beyond the banal concerns of the usual modern footballer.
He has debated the ideological underpinnings of the Big Society, revealed a fondness for the lyrics of the Smiths, expressed an admiration for the engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, and shared aphorisms by Virgil, Seneca and Nietzsche.
