Joey Barton has blasted Dwight Yorke’s plan to buy a football club to appoint a black manager and savaged the ex-Manchester United’s star’s professional and personal conduct. 

Yorke, who won three Premier League titles with the Red Devils as well as the Champions League during the 1999 treble-winning campaign, recently opened up on his struggles to lead a team in English football. 

The 52-year-old has seen several of his former teammates, in addition to contemporaries such as Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard, land high-profile roles since retirement. 

‘Pure racism on show here again.’ Barton wrote on X, formerly Twitter. ‘Whites are bad. Drop me out.

‘Dwight can’t get a job because of his arrogance. Not because he’s black. Busy partying and acting a clown. Turned his back on a disabled kid. Then only wants top jobs (Aston Villa etc). 

‘Doesn’t want to start at the bottom and work his way up. Everyone knows that. Everyone with a brain. Stop your race baiting. It’s pathetic.

‘Darren Lewis at the hub of it! Shock. Reverse Racism is Racism lads.’

Last year, Price claimed that Yorke still refuses to see their son Harvey despite her attempts to reach out to the former striker. Harvey, 21, is blind, autistic, has septo-optic dysplasia and a learning disability, and is one of the 2,000 people in the UK with Prader-Willi syndrome, a genetic disorder.

‘The door is always open.’ Price told The Guardian. ‘I would love the day I see Dwight and Harvey in front of each other.

‘My mum still contacts his manager every year, and asks does he want to see Harvey for his birthday, and it’s always the same – ‘no’.’

Barton’s remarks come in a week when he hit out at BBC disinformation and social media correspondent Marianna Spring and renewed his repeated targeting of football pundit Eni Aluko in response to a perceived ‘hit piece’.

The 41-year-old disparaged Aluko’s appearance on BBC’s Why Do You Hate Me? podcast, wherein the pundit described the social media site X as being a place where people can ‘vomit their hatred unchecked’.

Taking umbrage with his apparent inability to respond, Barton also called out the podcast’s host Spring, claiming the journalist ‘ignored’ and ‘misrepresented’ him as well as sharing screenshots of emails between her and his representatives.
