BlueStar Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Good move by the club.... dont need people like Barton constantly bagging out the club. Genius - run the club like a bunch of clowns and then simply solve the problem by giving away any player who doesn't like it. Worthy of Viz Top Tips.

ToonTastic Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Surely better to get some money for him? Must have been kicking up a stink at training etc if this has happened, I would think. Not just on twitter. Probably just doesn't want him associated with the club while he's making the comments. Surely that will just mean Barton will say what he wants now though making it worse for the club ? Unless Barton has gone against everything he has said and took payment to keep quiet ? Could all be crap from Ryder as well though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShearMagic Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 lee_ryder Lee Ryder #nufc I'm hearing Joey Barton has been released Gerrin, now don't hold back Joey, tell us EXACTLY what's been going on Got his chance now. Can he be believed though? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BottledDog Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Though it's no surprise to see people turning on yet another of our best players from last season and ignoring the real issues. To butcher a cliché, airing your dirty laundry in public isn't clever but stopping doing so doesn't suddenly make your laundry clean. Ashley and Llambias must be pissing themselves at how easy it is. You have to be fucking kidding me. You think they'll be laughing at releasing a player on a free? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mantis Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 so cabaye's replaced two players? one of which was our top scorer? and marveaux (who's got a terrible injury record) and ben arfa (who's coming back from a career threatening injury) make it alright to lose nolan and barton? what kind of crack are you smoking? I've blown smoke up your Mum's arse crack, does that count? We have three new players in midfield and we've lost two, to put it a lit bit more simply for you. IMO Cabaye is better by far than Barton and Ben Arfa will be better than Nolan. Throw Marv into that and all-together, the squad in that area is improved. I'm laughing at this. No-one knows yet how Cabaye is going to do, as the lads is unproven. I'll say not (and feel safe in saying it) that as good as he could be, he won't replace Nolan's goal threat. As for Ben Arfa, he hasn't played 5 games for us yet so he needs a run too to see if he can adapt to the PL. And again, the squad is currently weaker than the one that started last season. Why can't some people see the bigger picture rather than focusing their ire on Barton? It seems far easier for some to pin their hopes on Cabaye, while forgetting the key contributions made by others last season. He's using twitter, hang him! I'd sooner see the three at the top swinging. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leazes1986 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 So we've made more money than we've spent this summer after selling Carroll for £35m in January, we're struggling to get a striker in we're desperate for, we've agreed to sell our only other natural right winger, we've got hardly any transfer money to spend by the looks of it, and we've got a month to address all of this and we've released one of our best players.

KaKa Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Part of me thinks this is what he wanted all along. Agree. Couldn't even get any money for him, because he was saying he would refuse to leave. So had to release him now, rather than next season. Think this is what he was aiming for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
