brummie Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Bored to fuck of his Twitter quotes. I hate Twitter. Barton's stuff is beyond parody. Quoting Orwell when the closest he's probably come to experiencing the author is watching Animal Farm. And I'm talking about the 1970s animal shagging grot horror film, not the Orwell adaptation.

ponsaelius Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Well duh, of course he's given PERMISSION to speak. Doesn't mean he'll be insane enough to go there. I'm not worried. He is in talks with them according to SSN. If they offer him as five year deal he may well take it Aye, despite what he said about wanting to stay, not being pushed out, and only leaving for a champions league team (however serious he was with that one), if he/his agent are in discussions, there must be an interest from him too. He'd definitely take a move to QPR, like. Aye, DEFINITELY. Touchy, James? You have that effect on a lot of people on this board. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest magpie99 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Yeah Brummie, being the intellectual type, just like wor Joey, I always got confused between Far from the madding crowd and Fritz the Cat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Love how folk think Gosling can fill his boots when the lad has played about ten minutes of competitive football for us. Guthrie filled his boots well enough in the Championship when Barton was missing for half a season. We do have Tiote and Cabaye in the middle as well so it's not like we are light in midfield. Just shut up, man. Barton hasn't done great in central midifeld, which is why he's been moved wide right for a while now. He's not been great wide right either since Carroll left. Don't think about it too hard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDT Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Barton said he was looking for long term security when he asked for his new deal but surely a move to QPR is the exact opposite of that, yes they may give him a long term contract but come May he may find himself a championship player. The fact no other team seems to have made him a concrete offer seems to show he's going for the same things as Nolan. Surely if he stayed for a season here and played which he would do, he may have better offers and even more money on the table come when his contract expires.

LionOfGosforth Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Anyone who thinks we won't miss this player on the pitch AND in the dressing room is off his/her rocker. The fact we're giving him away is beyond belief but actually the least of the problems with this. I wonder where our wage bill will be after Barton's gone? Probably if not for Smith and Colo (who will be the next big name sold no doubt), in the bottom six of the league. Which is where we're going to end up if we keep chucking players out and not replacing them properly. If he leaves this window, we're a left back, striker AND a good midfielder down, 7 days to replace all 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Well duh, of course he's given PERMISSION to speak. Doesn't mean he'll be insane enough to go there. I'm not worried. I wouldn't be worried if he did, he's been distinctly average for quite a few games now and his free kicks are crap. Rather keep him but he's not a player I'd be gutted to see leave.
