Joey Barton (now retired)


Recommended Posts

 

More concerned with the lack of another player who won't be replaced.

 

The transfer fees and wages saved by shipping out Barton, Nolan, Carroll, Enrique etc should have meant the entire playing staff being reshaped into a side capable of pummelling anyone in the bottom half, challenging the for the top 6 and giving the top 4 a good game.

 

Unfortunately it was just a huge money saving exercise by Fat Ash.

 

Barton had a few good points but his constant whingeing was disingenuous to say the least. He has his nice long term deal so we should move on. Shame about QPR, I always quite liked them.

Thanks for one season.

 

Best of luck at QPR.

 

 

 

this. Don't believe the(his) hype

 

It was there for everyone to see. It's no hype.

 

My point exactly!

 

One good season (although faded after AC left), coupled with his twitter rants and media hype and he is thought of as some sort of god-like genius on here, crazy!

 

No denying he was a very important player last year, but really no need to worry about his departure, worry about no replacement coming in.

Good luck to him, hats off for getting his life back on track and showing his true self on the pitch. Hope he does well and hope he really meant all he did and treat us right whenever he plays at St James Park.

Fuck. Worst decision of the transfer window, probably of the whole year 2011 so far. Ashley fucked it up once again.

 

As for Joey, great player and personality. Great to have around at any football club. Will be badly missed.

 

Very best of luck at QPR. He'll be my big goalscorer bet for Sept. 12th.

Will definitely miss his spirit and enthusiasm even if it often manifests itself in rash, stupid decisions.  He did seem to get the club more than most.

 

I don't think he's at all irreplaceable.

 

Well, except that we don't seem to be capable of buying anyone.  In that sense, every player is irreplaceable. 

 

But if we were the sort of club who bought players sensibly, I wouldn't be all that concerned about the loss.  We aren't, so I am.

Glad it's QPR if nothing else. s*** club who have to be reckoned as relegation contenders. Not to mention Taarabt and Warnock. Hopefully it won't be long before there's some drama for us to enjoy.

 

drama to enjoy?? as if we are not the most dramatic club in EPL  :idiot2:

Being s***, people would have preferred him to sign for Lpool.

 

novo was saying something like he quite like QPR and shame on them on this transfer??

 

I'd rather he went to a club I can't stand like West Ham. Makes it easier to take.

 

I know people are lining up to take sides but, similar to the Carroll debacle, both Barton and Fat Ash & Co are equally culpable of turning a promising situation (for the player and the club) into what is another self inflicted injury to the team.
