Shame he's not much of a CM then. For you lot no he isn't. At city he excelled as a cm and he has the attributes to play that position so i doubt he's suddenly lost the ability to do so because he's been moved to the right at your club. He's shit in CM - his body and mind aren't quick enough.

Punk, as a matter of interest (well mainly to ascertain how big of a nutter we're dealing with here)... ... You still feeling all tingly?

Yep. Bunch of cunts. A cockney bunch of cunts no less. Unfortunately no geordie saviours have got two pennies to rub together otherwise we wouldn't be going through this agony. The only one who had some capital was Fat Fred and he ran out of Newcastle with a 40m swag bag and was last seen trying to buy some Spanish club for £10m. http://www.dsboard.de/phex/pics/nuf/eyes-bleed.jpg

So we ignore Barton's behaviour the past couple of months? You seem to be ignoring the form of the 2 players for the last 12 months, so yeah why not. Where have I ignored the form of our best two players? I think Barton was a very important part of our team last season along with Nolan, Enrique, Colo and Tiote. I really didn't want to think of our team without him for this season, Nolan slightly different especially after we signed Cabaye not that I know much about him but reading reports, the fact he is a French international who helped his team win their Championship gave me confidence that it would be ok to move Nolan on especially if his demands are true. It doesn't need explaining that we should fight harder to keep our better players but people are outraged by the behaviour towards Barton. There are two sides to every story and I would like to think I'm being fair to Barton and the Board. This is a complicated situation. The Twitter things have made things worse, I got a feeling if Barton hadn't joined Twitter they may have been hope of a compromise? I mean Smith and Barton. I'm basically saying I couldn't give a shit about how we're treating Smith in the same way Man City fans won't be arsed about how they're treating Adebayour or Bellamy, who due to the quality of their squad have been deemed surplus to requirements. Most clubs fight to keep their best players and will often give them a bit of leeway, whether that be a ticking off in this situation or assurances about the long term strategy and ambition of the club. The fact is that they can't give these assurances anyway, so they're just binning him.

Does it really need to be explained why you should make more of an effort to keep onside one of your best players than one that's surplus to requirements? I give up.

And Wayne Rooney criticised the Man Utd owners for a lack of ambition and they pulled out all of the stops to keep him when they could have just sold him for £50m+. We just let one of our best players go for nowt in vaguely similar circumstances. Other clubs don't do this - we're a special case and not in a good way.

It's fucking stupid. Releasing one of your best players on a whim man, fuck off. We've imploded before we've even started the season and this was supposed to be the summer that changed things, absolutely fucking pathetic.

Greedy Judas cunt Aren't they all.

Fucking clueless arseholes trying to ruin our club again.

I wonder if he's aired his thoughts to Ashley or Llambias? Holy shit, I think I'd rather he stuck to Twitter.

It doesn't make much sense when English is your first language tbh.

Aye, proper strange It was like he saw a long lost friend in the crowd. Btw, some Leeds fellow in the wetherspoons on Park row was giving out cards for a Newcastle forum: www.n-u-t-z.net/forum , i would get him telt Dave, stepping on your patch. I think that's the forum that True Faith recently decided to endorse.

Aye, if he doesn't beat the guy on his first attempt he stops trying. Best game in the Premier League for us was against Ashley Cole, so he can do it, but man, its going to take some serious confidence building for him to do it consistently. As things stand I can't see it happening. Perhaps if he has the right manager who makes him the focal point of the team.

Routledge seemed a really canny lad on the promotion season DVD. Did look like he was on pills mind. The kid has a mental block though, he will not attempt to beat a Premier League full back and it makes him a frustrating player to watch.

If we pay £7m for a player he'll be on the pitch every minute even if his leg's hanging off and will probably work 38 hours a week in the club shop n'all.

On the other hand the spelling and grammar is almost spot-on. Capital W for Wales if we're being picky. Howay the lads.

Absolute disgrace that, the guy deserves a lengthy ban.

The point is that you don't say "Righteo Kev, £50k a week, 5 year deal, shake my hand and we'll sign it in the summer". Then the summer comes and you offer him nothing of the sort. Aside from all of the other considerable issues with conducting your business like this, players talk. Similar to the fact that any good manager wouldn't touch us with a bargepole at the minute, players will hear stuff like this from respectable professionals like Kevin Nolan and decide it's not worth the hassle if they have the option of going to a club like Aston Villa or Everton or whoever.

Which is what's being disputed here. What you're talking about has been debated a million times on here and isn't related to the latest quotes.

That's not what's being disputed here.

I hadn't thought of that.

Mike Ashley and Derek Llambias - Shitting on customers since 2007... It's a 250% increase man.

Shhhhhh Vucky will go ape I don't think she likes me. The sadness will not go away Of course i like you ! You're one one of the only person who answer my question.... Ahh yea! I love you Mimi. Almost as much as Hatem,

There isn't a football club on the planet that's made a success of lying to and shitting on their staff and fans, this is what worries me. There's an argument that we've actually got quite lucky over the last 2 years but there's a good chance we'll come unstuck again if this is the way they insist on conducting themselves.
