NUMBER 4 – JOEY BARTON
Sean Dyche has hailed Joey Barton’s influence and attitude at Burnley after branding last week’s controversies as ‘pantomime stuff’.
Barton hit the headlines for a couple of off-the-ball clashes with Lincoln’s Matt Rhead and Terry Hawkridge during the FA Cup defeat at Turf Moor a week ago – but he seems to have more or less gotten away with it, with even his manager praising him, so overall a good week, especially considering it appears the whole ordeal will just be, well, forgotten – unusual for Barton.
