Skirge Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 FWIW, the replay footage of the goal showed Taylor pointing at Collins and telling Simpson "I got him". Yeah, you couldn't miss it. "you get him" you never know Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 People honestly picking him apart because he complained about a free kick? Madras has a go at Barton over giving the free-kick then is soo arrogant to the fact he blames Simpson and not taylor for the defending of it. Double standards. i give you 100 days to find where i blame simpson. even easier, i didn't so fuck off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 get used to him, ronaldo has his faves and hates and will defend them to the end, regardless of what actually happens. I often manage to find affection for players who are consistently instrumental in us picking up points. Fickle, I know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, who are you blaming for the lack of marking around collins despite Steven Taylor saying 'I've got him' and pointing to collins for the marking for that free-kick?

Mr. Snrub Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 The tackle is on youtube, and you can clearly see he wins the ball first then goes through the man. It was a hard tackle, but never a red card in a million years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovejoy Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 he despises people for exactly what he's just done.....being bigger than their performances and todays wasn't a 'captains performane'. keep your gob shut and let your football do your talking. Nail on the head. I'm a big fan of his, but he was shite today and after his mouthing off he looks a fool. I spent the majority of my evening arguing with man utd fans about him last night, he made me look a fool as well today. Just get on with the job in hand please, and shut your trap.

brummie Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I thought he was ok today, to be honest, but he was clearly wound up right from the off. He also seemed to spend a lot of time talking and gesturing to your bench. Bloke behind me commented that it looked like Barton thought he was the on-pitch manager, and to be honest, I thought he had a poiunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincent Vega Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 To be honest hes the one who's brung all of this attention to himself with his comments in the press , if you come out with comments like he did its got be expected to get criticism back.
