Joey Barton has never been a neutral's favourite. However, for all his faults, you can never criticise Barton for being boring or keeping things bottled up. In keeping with that theme, Barton has decided to share some of the 'fan mail' he received during his time in France with Marseille.
Barton posted the full letter (with the senders address, because that's what you do when you're sending death threats) on Twitter today and it makes for very interesting reading.
Mr Barton
A little friendly advice : as soon as you finish your season in your current club, I advice you to leave France immediately.
In fact, if you're not left France before June 1st, I will come to you specially Marseille smash your head shots baseball bat. And then I will finish and you'll die a knife open mouth once emptied your blood bastard.
Do you understand? You have until June 1st to leave France and return to your country motherfuckers.
Sincerely,
It was then signed off with a very nice signature. He seems like a nice kind of fella.
