Its a strange one, he told talkSPORT at Cheltenham.I tend to think that once youve made your bed, youve got to lie in it.If youve played for Ireland youre either Irish or youre English. I think thats quite a straightforward decision. Hes made the choice now. For me, I think hes a quality player without a shadow of a doubt.There are a lot of Irish people here at Cheltenham so Ill have to keep my voice down, but youve got more chance of winning a major competition at international level if you play for England as opposed to Ireland.talkSPORT listeners will be familiar with Bartons unfiltered opinions after his stint as a co-host on the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast last year.Barton spoke to talkSPORT at Cheltenham2
