You said he deserves to be treat differently ffs,regardless of their past, everyone in the game should be treat the same. If the actions of Joey Barton deserve a certain punishment, every other player should deserve that punishment too. The fact Barton going down too easily is the biggest talking point of that game and not the Song stamp is absolutely absurd, because if it was Joey doing the stamping there'd be and a national witch hunt and cries from everyone to have him hung, drawn and quartered.
Also, I didn't contest the influence part, Joey clearly was trying the influence the decision, it was the dishonest part I contest. Gervinho clearly deserved to be sent off, Barton's actions merely made sure the correct decision was made. If it was dishonest, it would imply Joey influenced the referee into making a wrong decision.
Sorry, I just saw him throw himself to the ground as if punched, rather than brushed, then get up and tell the people around him "he punched me", whilst miming a punch. Seeing as there was no punch, I myself considered this to be a lie, and as a lie by definition "dishonest". Seeing as it was an attempt to get Gervinho sent off (or else why would he do it?) and that I considered it dishonest (for the reasons outlined above) I didn't think it was too much of a stretch for me to call it a "dishonest attempt to have Gervinho sent off"
