    Man City midfielder Joey Barton faces massive fine



    15:44 Wednesday December 22nd 2004



    Manchester City midfielder Joey Barton is facing a large fine following an incident at the club's Christmas party on Sunday.
    Barton was involved in a fracas with youth team player Jamie Tandy which ended with the midfielder stubbing a cigar out in the youngster's eye.

    It is understood that Tandy had tried to set Barton's shirt on fire.

    The Club have already carried out an internal investigation and both players have been deemed guilty of gross misconduct.

    22-year-old Barton could now be fined six weeks' wages, around €143,000.

    Barton's shirt did catch on fire and ran out of the building. The local police caught up with him later and charged him with possessing an illegal firearm

    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.
