so he will prob serve 3 months? is it a coincidence this has happened now and will miss a minimal amount of football?

He'll serve only 2 months if he's a good boy, you get a third of your sentence remission automatically, then up to another third off for good behaviour.

Hopefully the Dabo case will get to court soon and they'll proper chuck the book at him.

i hope he is one of those guys that after only receiving a short sentence, gets into fight after fight and spends a very long time behind bars. sitting on top of someone who is knocked out and punching them repeatedly is so cowardly, and of course it sounds exactly like what happened at city and that wasnt after his 20 beers or so.

If they find him guilty for the Dabo assault he's for the high jump. A few months in Strangeways will show him he's not the hard man he thinks he is.

TIMELINE: BAD NEWS BARTON
2004 February: First red card for Manchester City
April: Storms out of City ground after being dropped
July: Criticised by manager for sparking mass brawl in pre-season friendly game

2005 May: Involved in early hours road accident, injuring pedestrian
July: Altercation with teenage fan during Asian tour (fined eight weeks' wages)

2007 November: FA probe tackle on Dickson Etuhu after Barton's move to Newcastle but no action
December: Describes Newcastle fans as "vicious"
2008 May: Jailed for assault

i notice there is no reference to Dabo in the timeline or anywhere in the article on the BBC...

I can only assume that is because he has pleaded not guilty, so, until the verdict they can't comment on him doing it.

The best bit of business done last season wasn't Gelson, nor was it Elano or Petrov.

Selling Barton for 5.2 mill, sheer brilliance on our part.
