Joey Barton (now retired)


Recommended Posts

Optimistic: I'm not sure a club would spend 2-3 mill on Barton after his twitter antics..He comes with a lot of baggage. Now we save money on wages, which could be used on financing the wages of Barton's replacement..Besides, we need a different kind of rm if we want the best out of BA..Barton drifts too much inside.

 

Can I have a shot of whatever you've been injecting?

 

He had to go..Although the club probably has not been competent, a line as to be drawn. He's a professional, earing more money than most dare dream of. If he disagrees with how the club is run, use the proper channels, instead of posting stupid tweets ..

 

What are the proper channels? :lol:

His tweet "I am on a free but the honour of wearing those B+W stripes, surpasses that" may suggest he intends to stick it to them by staying.

 

He's going to be sticking it to us as well if he destroys the dressing room, which appears to be high on his agenda.

I don't see wages as a stumbling block, if he gets an offer from a good club I think he's as good as gone, 'So long and thanks for all the fish' etc. But if said offer doesn't materialize, I agree I think he'd stay just to spite.. he's that kind of person. Can imagine him doing everything to sabotage the regime; his methods are not the best but I think his heart is in the right place.. I am actually really hoping he does stay and does the kind of damage to the regime that will force change one way or another. I can't imagine any one else associated with the club having the balls and the opportunity to do so.

 

Would be funny to see him tweet every Friday the players NOT on the teamsheet just to circumvent that golden rule about confidentiality :D

He's already started according to my man ITK. Snuck into the ground tonight and took a sledgehammer to the ice bath.

I don't think the clubs that will be interested in him will offer him near what he is on here and I don't think the clubs that would be 'big' enough to make him consider a pay-cut will go near him.

He hasn't got round to poking a cigar in the Janitor's eye yet then? :lol:

Can't see him sticking around for year surrounded by turbulence and uncertainty when he's expecting his first kid soon, he'll want to get settled down, first club to offer him 4/5 years and he'll be off.

 

Ah ok guess we won't get him then.

I think he'll see himself more like the Liverpudlian Che Guevara than the doting father to be!

Not according to current reports.

Does the other players seem happy or surprised/sad/angry that he's been sat on the transfer list? Shut up about him ruining the dressing room, seriously. If they'd not liked him, they wouldn't care if he went or not. I think it will be more ruined if he left tbh.

Ashley's NUFC - one step backwards, two steps back.

 

The stunning lack of investment has caused all of this shite. I'll admit Barton was stupid to make his criticism public but he's obviously been as frustrated as the majority of the fans. Every penny goes back into the team we were told. Fucking lies man.

 

This club will never move forward under Ashley's reign. It's a shite state of affairs and I'm genuinely worried how many more of our (few) quality players will just give up on us and move on to a club with ambitions. Unfortunately we'll still be here after they, and Ashley, have slung their hooks. It's fucking shameful.

:sadnod: As much as I don't want to admit it but the truth hurts: we'll never progress with that fat b*stard around.

I just tweeted to him:

 

@Joey7Barton Joined twitter just to be able to follow/post to you. Stick it out with us, teach the regime a lesson and become a legend!

 

and then 1 minute later:
