Isn't a new one coming up? So if this sign gets replaced with the same, is it still taking the piss?

 

no it isnt, but it wont.

I do like him but he's coming across as a bitter child with his comments IMO. His delusions of his own ability level are pathetic too. That comment on Santon is mocking pure and simply, which is funny considering at 20 year old he's achieved more than Barton will in his entire career. I really hope he struggles playing in the middle this season if just to bring him back down to earth.

 

Like somebody has said, would Joey be moaning about lack of ambition if he'd been offered the contract that he wanted? I came to the conclusion a while back that his motives to everything he does are almost entirely selfish ones. People have built him up on a pedistal as some kind of spokesperson against Ashley and martyr for the fans. He's just a half-decent player who didn't get the contract he wanted, he should shut up and get on with his new club.

 

My thoughts exactly. If we'd offered him the contract he/McKay asked for, we wouldn't have heard a peep from him on Twitter about the club I bet. Fact is the only club who were prepared to offer anything near that is a newly-promoted club with a new owner.

If Cattermole had a dig at the people running our club I would support it too.

 

I was talking about the Santon and Cabaye comments but it wouldn't surprise me if Cattermole was given free reign by some if he had a dig about the board, that seems to be the most important thing at the moment :lol:

 

because they're the root of the problems, howay man.

 

Supporting the team > Slate the shit cunts who run it.

 

For me anyway ???

 

goes without saying. he's not a supporter like us though is he, doesnt mean he shouldnt be allowed to give his opinion.

 

slightly going in circles now i feel. ashley's a cunt, 35m, howay the toon.

Would be worth seeing Tiote getting a 3-match ban to break this cunts leg.

 

Exactly. :thup:

And that's not to say he's not falling on some truth with his comments, I just don't think he gives a shit about us as fans and so I can't relate to his comments. He's angry because he didn't get his contract, not because Ashley isn't showing ambition.

 

Talking about ambition when he's joined QPR. The hypocrisy is so blatant that it makes any digs at the board utterly worthless IMO.

What is signing for QPR just for the money, if not lack of ambition.

Pot,kettle,black.

 

They're more ambitious, ignore the fact we would have cried with any of their signings apart from Barton (ironic) and there is a good chance they will be in the championship next season but yeah, he's gone for he ambition.

 

The massive wages have nothing to do with it, I am sure he or his agent didn't put the terms to QPR.

I don't care if every word Barton says is gospel. Now that he's gone, he needs to shut the fuck up about this club instead of trying to unsettle people still under contract here.

 

Hope we teach him a lesson on matchday.

going completely off the point, did i read somewhere that steve bruce had instructed any mackem who scored against us this season to do the chicken dance? in that case Sewelly, can we please see a slight variation to your avatar? perhaps with a sad looking steve bruce head?

Be interesting to see the reaction if QPR finish above us.

 

The equivalent of saying it'll be interesting to see the reaction if Best scores more than Carroll.

A lot of what he says is spot on but it won't help or change a thing. The player comments are distatesful at best and he just needs to let it go.

 

His "doing it for the Geordie faithful" has fooled a lot of people though, anyone thinking he isn't all about himself are as deluded as those who think Ashley is ambitious.

Building further on Daves comment  here, how many signings away from finishing above us do you reckon QPR are?

 

They have been quite the busy bees, whereas we went to bed early.

There would be a number revelling in the "I told you so" anyway. If they finish above us we have fucked up massively because our squad is far better than theirs.

Would any of their signings get in our team?

You can sign as many players as you want but if they are all shit then you aren't going to get far.

 

Their best defender is Anton Ferdinand?

fwiw, i dont buy the geordie nation stuff either. just think he's not doing anything that the board aren't doing themselves to a much higher degree in terms of unsettling players

Don't disagree with that, which is why with the board we have we don't need a player who apparently cares sticking his oar in too.
