I’m in my element behind bars. I’m a thug, a Neanderthal, a stain on society. I am the man who shamed our great game, football. Think again.”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo, you think you know Joey Barton. This is the unique and inspirational story of the most fascinating figure in British football. It is raw yet redemptive, unflinchingly honest and emotionally intelligent. Like the man himself, it is candid, challenging, entertaining and outspoken. It reveals the influence of a tough upbringing in Liverpool and strips bare the game which shaped him. He tells it as it really is, without filters and fantasies. This is his survival manual, a powerful insight into how a modern dressing room works.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoey does not spare himself. He acknowledges his mistakes, and puts controversy into context. He opens the door to his prison cell, and reveals how the low point of being jailed for assault in 2008 proved to be the catalyst for the re-evaluation of his life. The millions who follow his commentaries on social media, and those who witnessed him on BBC’s \u003cem\u003eQuestion Time\u003c\/em\u003e, will be given another reason to pause. \u003cem\u003eNo Nonsense\u003c\/em\u003e is a game-changing memoir that will make you look beyond the caricature to the man within.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardback — a bold, striking edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very good — minimal wear to cover and spine, pages clean and unmarked.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Almost New Book Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57861916229976,"sku":null,"price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/3572\/2584\/files\/20260804_161642.jpg?v=1787928854","url":"https:\/\/thealmostnewbookshop.net\/zh\/products\/joey-barton-no-nonsense","provider":"The Almost New Book Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
