Joey Barton will take charge of League One Fleetwood Town on a three-year deal from 2 June, replacing John Sheridan.

The 35-year-old, who most recently played for Premier League side Burnley, is approaching the end of a suspension for a charge related to betting.

"I'm very excited by the challenge," ex-England midfielder Barton, who will take his first managerial role, said.

Sheridan, 53, replaced Uwe Rosler in February and will leave at the League One club at the end of the season.

I cannot think of anyone less suited to football management (except Alan Pardew). He'll be gone before the clocks go back.

Again, unlike 'Pards' and Barton, neither of those two are *****.

Barton is beginning from a low, low starting point, because he is a highly enriched, weapons grade thundercunt.

Imagine Lee Bowyer appointed a manager. The guy's a nutcase - drugs, smashing up a McDonald's, beating up Asians, fighting his own teammates on the pitch, telling a woman to f**k off at a match when he was sent off. It would be an absolute disaster.

Lee Bowyer is currently Charlton's manager! :lolol:

Fleetwood vs Charlton next season, if neither has been sacked yet, would be very tasty on the touchlines.
