Joey Barton's social media rampage shows no signs of slowing down after he branded a Manchester United YouTuber a "football virgin". <\/p>\n

The former Premier League midfielder, who got into hot water after criticising female football pundits and commentators, has been embroiled in a tense back-and-forth on X with Stephen Howson, who hosts the Vibe with Five podcast alongside United legend Rio Ferdinand.<\/p>\n

Barton's controversial comments were brought up on a recent episode of the podcast and the panel suggested inviting the ex-Manchester City man on to discuss them. In response, Howson warned Barton: "If you're coming in here it'll be a hot day for you, son."<\/p>\n

Taking to X the following day, Barton hit out at Howson by endlessly comparing him to a potato. He wrote: "Who is that big spud head? What\u2019s he talking about? The big potato… You can\u2019t even do 5 keep ups before you\u2019re out of breath, you big Maris Piper."<\/p>\n

He added: "Football Virgin. You\u2019d get a stitch after playing real men\u2019s football 5 mins ya big whopper. Couch Potato! You Leave the football to the Propers. Not the whoppers."<\/p>\n

Howson bit back, writing: "Is this man talking about people\u2019s ability to communicate, but speaks like a 9 year old got his phone. Joseph, call me what you want. I\u2019ve been on YouTube for a decade. You think I\u2019m hurt by someone calling me fat? Grow up you melon."<\/p>\n

Barton then replied: "Spudly Howson. Listen, you won\u2019t be doing any football talking when I\u2019m about you little football virgin." He then told Ferdinand to "get your b****es in order."<\/p>\n

The furore surrounding Barton began last week when the 41-year-old claimed that "any man who listens to women commentary or co-comms needs their heads testing". He later appeared on Piers Morgan Uncensored to defend his comments, and was heavily scrutinised by former Sky Sports presenter Bianca Westwood, among others.<\/p>\n
