All matches kick off the same time on the last day, so it would have been around about the 90 minute mark, as QPR were 2-1 up. Of course, that meant that a good bit of the five minutes extra time, most of it courtesy of Joey Barton's antics, would then have been played with QPR knowing they were safe, possibly distracted......
Have you seen Mr Barton's Twitter tale? He now says that Tevez started it AND that his subsequent vicious kick at Aguero and attempt to headbutt Kompany were not temper, but a cold and deliberate attempt to get a City player sent off to even things on the pitch. Then he started on Alan Shearer, calling him all kinds of names and ranting away about wearing nicer shirts and having better hair than Shearer.....
The FA have charged him with two counts of violent conduct for the incidents after his red card, which fall outside the jurisdiction of the ref. He could face a 10 match ban, but really, who wants him at all? If you read his wikipedia entry, it looks like a police record - one long list of people he'[censored] and kicked. Half of them off the pitch too. Some people shouldn't be allowed on the pitch if you ask me!
