Astroblack Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 I liked the nikes he wore before. The total 90s I think they were called. Probably preference, they're pretty bland looking imo. Also off topic but I bought the nike Legends because Milner wore them. Colo wears them too. Would get those classic black Umbros that Shearer wore if they weren't so expensive.

Cajun Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 You know what a few times tonight I think he was harshly judged because of who he is. Abonlahor trying to rip his arm off and still winning a freekick is a prime example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Joey still has some work to do with regards his temper, Setanta did exaggerate his antics tonight but if the ref had spotted that flick on Agbonlahor's face he could easily have been sent off. I'm backing him still, but cautiously for the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 I love him because everyone hates him and he is a cunt. This is close to how I feel. I don't love him as his performances haven't been that good (counting a lot of the last season and his suspension), but he has played well recently and I like the fact that everyone else, apart from we, hate him. We need cunts in the team. He gives us some spine, some fight and he's got quality on the ball as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakie Doke Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 I love him because everyone hates him and he is a c***. my feelings exactly. I'm glad he hasn't lost any aggression on the pitch. I was worried he might have become more cautious after being locked up, but he's still got balls. I like balls. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugazi Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 My Sig says it all The guy is all or nothing. Sometimes he will let you down, but most of the time he will try his heart out. I think the guy could be a cult hero What part? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 A few times he literally pushed his own-team mate off the ball or away from the ball to get on it. I love seeing that personally. He took the game by the scruff of the neck at several points in the game and was a big factor behind our win. Looked a decent player tonight. I'd like to see him at full fitness, in really good form and with a string of games behind him which we've never seen yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Captain. Barton did tonight what Gerrard does for Liverpool. He's nowhere near as good as Gerrard but was impressed that he was in the thick of it and driving us on in that second half. That's captain material imo.

matta Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 The media, and Graham Poll can fuck off about this one, he hardly touched the lad, and if thats a red card, then poll should be getting a death penalty for most of his decisions during his reffing career.

Skirge Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Was mint last night, we did see a little bit of the temper but only though a flick on the nose needs to back himself again to shoot from distance we all know he can do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of the reason why we can't contemplate a side without Martins at the moment. With no central midfielders breaking into the box we need forwards who can fashion their own chances. While Barton shows signs he can orchestrate the midfield I would love to see him getting forward more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 From the Chron Live: NEWCASTLE United midfielder Joey Barton will not face any action for flicking out a hand at Gabriel Agbonlahor, it has been announced. The Football Association have confirmed that referee Steve Bennett did not see the incident, in which the 26-year-old caught the Villa man in the face after conceding a disputed free-kick. However, having been asked to look again at Barton’s actions, Bennett decided that the incident would not have resulted in a red card and therefore there were no grounds for him to be charged.
