    I think he's joking, I've never got the fuss about the Steve McLaren one, he just sounds his normal Yorkshire self in it to me

    And just the last day he was mouthing off about being "too intelligent to be a footballer".

    From a pretty well known aggressive guy that uses people's eyes as ashtrays.

    It's called 'adapting', OP.

    Now, adapt to boards.ie and feck off to the soccer forum.

    Who's Joey Barton and why would I care what accent he has?

    Mimicking the accent of people you are speaking with is natural. When I talk to my Australian cousins I speak with an Aussie twang. I'm told that when I talk with my Eastern European friends I adopt a bit of a Slavic accent (as well as Slavic swear words)

    I have yet to be stopped by a foreign tourist on O'Connell Street and be asked, "Story bud, can ya tell me the bleedin' way to the Jaysus Jervis Centre!" in their best Northside accent! Or they ask me in their native tongue with a Dublin accent!

    There's a thread in the Cool Links and Videos forum for this sort of thing.
