except it isnt the end of, because the debate is about whether he should be allowed to play in the final, not whether it was a penalty or not. stupid f***ing debate really isn't it, he was sent off and the rules say he can't play right? so of course he shouldn't be allowed to play because if barca lose tonight they'd be within their rights to kick off with the puyol yellow that put him out of tonight's game for a challenge that i heard was not worthy of a yellow rule changes are never made mid season for good reason and we have a winner.

except it isnt the end of, because the debate is about whether he should be allowed to play in the final, not whether it was a penalty or not. the rules state he shouldnt. end of.

the spurs decision, which was very similar in that the ball clealry changed direction, went for them, this didnt. you win some you lose some. end of.

sadly that is correct. blackburn are after him apparently, probably paper s**** i say sadly because, although barton is a loonie, nolan couldnt kiss his arse.

i said it earlier in the thread, i dont think it was a straight red, it was a red because it was barton, there have been far worse gone on in the past few weeks for less punishment. i reckon shearers public comments on him (whilst they wernt too revealing/harsh) are a result of the bust up after the game.

i don think it would last long tbh

this has been put to bed far quicker than that saga was. cant see him appearing on tv and dragging it out further.

He could (and should) have played a massive part in us avoiding relegation. His idiocy has destroyed that. Shearer has every right to be fuming - particularly if the story in the Sun is right - and the club have every right to back up their manager. I wouldn't disagree with that, IF the story is true, but it's a pretty big if considering where the story is from. Discipline him by all means but trying to make an even bigger issue out of it just smacks of deflecting from the shambles we've become He's a convinient scapegoat, imo. i think the action by the club points to the story having some truth.

jesus wept. your like a battered wife.

Anything we get for him is a bonus, because I can't see many clubs being willing to take the risk. We were supposedly his last chance, and since he came he's been in all kinds of bother on and off the pitch. As Gol says, I think we'll now look to terminate his contract. i dont think there is any doubt we'll look to terminate. pretty sure we can hold onto his registration though

wigan i reckon. allardyce wont touch him after he let him down i dont think.

apparently a square up with shearer after the game.

sky sports all over it now as well.

aye, its on there like.

harper beye collo bassong duff smith butt jonas viduka owen martins pretty convinced that will be his team.

exactly. lets cheer stoke and bolton on next saturday and do the smogs on monday night.

we can do villa on the last day, they'll have nowt to play for.

exactly. i have seen far worse go unpunished this season, palacios last week for one. he has got the red for being joey barton imo (granted i watched it pissed up yesterday and havnt seen it since). fact is though, he should be aware of his rep, and its going to go before him, so he needs to be more carefull. thick cunt. ship him out.

go to the arcles.

good player imo.

So he should be, we should go 4-3-3

he'll never drop his mates that shearer. blah blah blah.

oh well. thats my chips pissed on.
