Spot on with the 'pal' bit, it was more than a little bit naughty.
Don't know about Kayal giving him a tough time, thoroughly outplaying would be more accurate.
Dignified being the correct word. I have yet to see Hughton really lose it post game in the public arena, secretly I bet he's seething but why get an FA fine or wind Dyche up by calling Barton out. Also, I'd rather you have your strongest team for the remainder of your games.
Yes, keep living...
