An interview where Barton hardly let the guest get a word in edgeways, he seemed more interested in rambling on and being the centre of attention than listening to the guest who is very knowledgeable who I tuned in to listen to .

Please ask your editor to split into chapters. Lots of us will never have 2 hours to wade through this so we move on. I have 30 minutes a day on average for YT. The rest is work, sleep, family, friends.

Massive respect for you Joey not afraid to share your opinion it’s not very often people speak their mind these days because they are afraid of the repercussions

Talk about piggy backing on City’s name in the video title as click bait! Did we actually get to the bit where they discussed City in any detail? I’m not sure as I dropped off a couple of times but even after re-winding I appear to have missed it! This reminds me a bit of Simon Jordan’s podcast whereby he has decent guests and make some valid points or questions but he speaks far too much and often you forget what the original question was or he doesn’t get to the point. Maybe have your questions pre-prepared and researched so you don’t go completely off piste with your own personal opinions and then build in half an hour at the end to revisit any of their answers or ask for their views on anything you have to add. The guest was subtlety respectful in bowing to Barton’s knowledge of football - even though he’s an old school fan who knows the game more than most - so Barton should reciprocate that with a tad more humility and deference in the first hour or so when boiling the frog so we can hear the depth and detail of the guest’s expertise and viewpoints. I think Barton could be very good at this but needs to hone his style a bit.

Interesting guest. Good work Joey and very enjoyable to listen to.

Nice stuff Joey. You are learning a new craft and doing very well . Agree with some of the constructive comments, that is, let the interviewee dominate by about 75% at least 👍

It needs an 'absolute' cost cap not one relative to income. Only allow £xx million for transfers and £yy million for wages - a set figure for everyone in the League - a proper level playing field

Joey B. is new to this. I actually don't think he interrupts his guest too much, not like a bird would. I think he's a worthwhile contributer, he's thoughtful. Good work, mate. We all learn as we go, watch my content from 2 years ago, I sound like a robot, now I'm firey, confident, and on point, which I've always been, to be fair.

[gerrardhession]

J - could you please get Nigel Clough to do a long interview please ? His old man, his management history, his playing career, his thoughtful demeanour etc . Thank you Hession

First class podcast Joey and Kieran. I learned so much from this - and I liked it being a two-way conversation rather than an interview. I think it pulled so many good points out.

[jeanfletcher]

FFP stops competition altogether. United are in tons of debt but seemingly that's perfectly fine. Any team should have the chance to dream and this just kills it dead, If a rich owner buys any club and invest in it, that surely adds more excitement like Newcastle than just the cartel of United, Liverpool and Arsenal.

[Bad_Gnasher]

Brilliant Podcast.

Could listen to you and Kieran for many hours.

[falksi]

Joey is one of the few beacons of truth in modern society. Top lad.

[Fedup]

Joey love the fact that your guests get time to bring us through their stories, this is what makes this watchable and listenable and more importantly great entertainment

[oldschoolfootball]

Turned off because Barton keeps interrupting. The guy started talking about Leicester and why it was great and bad at the same time. Barton interrupted for half an hour and the guy forgot the story.

[Joe-eqxh]

Joey I like you fella but you need to let your guest speak more

[Macaroon]

Liam Gallagher Adidas on the shelf! Nice nod to match day culture!

[markbusby]

Excellent Joey Barton, well constructed interview, you let Kieran talk openly, for me you shone a light on a dark subject "The True Underbelly" of English Football....👍

[rcagoon]

This is exactly why people don't watch football focus or TV in general nowadays Joey bl00dy Barton tho. Had no idea. Good stuff.

[garethjones]

Say what you like about joey but he’s bloody good at this.
