TRon

I suppose we'll find out when Jose heads for Anfield soon.

Becoming clear he doesn't respect anyone really, especially authority, bosses etc, he's the bloke you know who has been sacked countless times after arguments with his bosses but its never his fault. Strange that he didn't seem to have a problem with his bosses before now, though. Aye. It's not like he was kicked out of City or squared up to Shearer in the dressing room is it? Man City was between him and another player, hardly his boss. Against Shearer, well, that was after a match in that he got sent off, probably knew we would get relegated, and was very much pissed off. Hardly something what couldn't have happend to anyone. Well if you ignore the times when he fell out with his previous bosses then yes you are right. He never had any problems with his previous bosses.

Has anybody came out and confirmed that anything in the Chronicle is true? Has anybody other than Barton come out and confirmed that it wasn't? Who are you expecting to do that when the club roll out fines for players speaking to the media and not towing the party line? I'm not the one who keeps asking for confirmation of every single comment. Tell it to Johnny and Mick.

Good aspects being it's the only premiership job he'd ever have got? I think posters like Minhosa can't help coming to boards like this to hear another side to the argument then argue (badly) with it. The other ones are all pretty much in agreement so there's no discussion. It goes pretty much like this: toon fan #1 "Ashley's a fat cunt who's pocketing all the money" toon fan #2 "Aye. Cockney bastard" *end of discussion* Yep - I come to a discussion board for no discussion. Knob. I'm saying you come here because it's theo only place where there is any discussion. Read it again you pleb.

No, it's all true, Tron has had it confirmed. and you can confirm Joey's version right? Clearly holding a grudge. A lot of your posts can easily be argued with the tiniest sense of reasoning ability, you dont even bother. Again...why would I have a grudge? Humour me, I really don't understand why I would be biased, it's not like he's slagging me personally or I'm on Ashley's payroll. Or are you? I'm on an incentivised scheme. 20p per 100 posts. Working hard today!

No but Danny Simpson seems to think he's not a problem and other younger players seem to be taking his side in this. The only ones going against Barton is the press who will be getting information from the club which is one sided. Leon Best said the stuff about a poor spirit in the camp was rubbish. What about the new players who have all been bright as sunshine in their interviews? What makes you think your version is the truth and the papers are lying?

why would I be biased? Seriously what have I got to gain from it?

You are getting in a tit for tat through your tweets you mong

If he's having rows with his team mates and ranting at new signings what would you suggest? He's openly talking about bad feeling in the camp so why would you want him to ramp it up? It's our club who will suffer not Spurs o0r Everton, whose shirt he'll probably be donning next season. That confirmed like? Because I've seen more evidence to suggest it isn't as bad as the Ashley's local journalists are painting it out to be. Why don't you confirm your evidence that the local journalists are in Ashley's pocket? If you also want to play legal eagle then let's do it both ways. I haven't got any, but that's not what I'm disputing. I'm disputing the claim that Barton was a 'disruptive influence' Well the suggestion that he was a disruptive influence was in the local press and as you don't have any evidence that they are in Ashley's pocket then why should we assume that it's untrue?

Well errrmmm http://www.journallive.co.uk/nufc/newcastle-united-news/2011/08/02/tranquillo-barnetta-lined-up-to-replace-joey-barton-61634-29159519/2/ I wouldn't be surprised if they ran that story after seeing this thread yesterday.

I don't know why this thread has been suddenly bumped there's been absolutely no link suggesting we've revitalised our interest in him recently.

i bet we don't. You may hate the people running the club, but do legitimately think they will happily enter the season without any leftback at all? This seems absurd. It's also typical of the knee jerk doomsday mentality among some fans. I'm sceptical as most when it comes to us spending money but it doesn't mean all reason has to go out of the window.

I listened to the interview and he just seemed as clueless as ever. Reckoned Joey Barton was worth £6m and we should have sorted things out with him. Like we sorted things out with Bellamy and flogged him for less than half his value eh Fred? Stick to buying schools and 2nd rate Spanish clubs Fred, they'll accept cash no questions asked over there.

Say wut? What on earth does any of that even mean? it means kingkerouac's working as a rent boy in the Docklands

which is similar to what I said basically. I'm glad we agree then hopefully we're both wrong and Chieck M'Bengue will be wheeled out the day after Jose signs for the bin-dippers.

He has but no one wanted to pay a fee. Pardew seemed convinced that unlike Enrique, Joey was keen to give 100% this season so maybe we put a replacement on hold for 12 months while he was still here? That was my reading of the situation.
