Football’s Shame: Ford And Prison
JOEY Barton is in prison. “CRY BABY BARTON,” says the Sun’s front-page headline.
“You hear him crying in his cell at lights out time,” says an “insider”. A fellow insider has reportedly called Barton “scum of the earth”.
The Guardian looks at other jailed footballers. Cars play a big part. And looking through the list, we note that Tony Adams, the former Arsenal captain, was jailed in 1990 for drink-driving after crashing his Ford Sierra into a wall.
A Ford Sierra. The shame!
