A NEW CAREER FOR JOEY? WELL HE'S GOT TO BE GOOD AT SOMETHING
Unemployed footballer Joey Barton shadowed Wigan Warriors' coaching staff last night during their 26-24 win over Leeds Rhinos in the Super League.
The 32-year-old ex-England midfielder, who left QPR this summer, went into the dressing room before and after the game and spoke to the players.
"He came in before the game and was blown away by the level of detail we go into," said Wigan coach Shaun Wane. "It was pretty mind-blowing for him.
"He's a big rugby league fan. He knew everybody - when the players went up to him, he knew more about them than they knew about him."
