Barton Has Some Good News To Cheer!
They have opted to take no any action against Barton after an incident involving Shaun Maloney on Saturday.
The Newcastle midfielderseemed to punch Maloney during the Magpies' 4-1 at Villa Park, but the FA say the television pictures are "inconclusive".
Referee Lee Mason did not see the incident but on reviewing the footage says he got it right on the day, and it did not warrant a red card.
The issue has been dropped.
