Joey7Barton: if am not offered a new contract, my hands are tied. I will continue to do everything in my power to bring a trophy to St James next season

He doesn't say that he refused a contract extension in January in his tweets.  Obviously trying to get stupid mugs on his side via twitter.

Could it be that we've informed him an acceptable bid has come in? Seems strange for him to just blurt all this out without something prompting it. He'd have done it straight away after signing up otherwise.

That or we've told him we are close/got your replacement.. "you can go".

or maybe Joey's pissed with our pursuit of Yohan Cabaye?

Love Barton, but seriously, he's 29 with only playing one good year with us.  The rest in jail or injured.  Of course we are going to look for a younger cheaper replacement.  We would be stupid not to.

After the season he has had? What a pitiful comment.

The problem is as good as Joey has been for us this season (I'd like him to stay for at least squad depth) you just know he's one step away from doing something stupid again.. I can see why our owner doesn't want to take the risk with him.. especially as he's not young.

It's strange how every time us fans get attached to a player or manager, Ashley decides to get shot of them  :dave:

 

You have to wonder why we bothered standing by him through all the prison time etc though, only to fuck him off once he starts playing well.

The lad as hardly put a foot wrong in over 2 years. Where as tiote has made a load of poorly timed tackles and nowt is said.
