Joey Barton (now retired)


Recommended Posts

knew it wouldn't be long before joey opens his big gob lol,  was only a matter of time. 

 

 

 

JOEY BARTON has accused QPR team-mate Adel Taarabt of being a lazy sulker.

 

Rangers skipper Barton, who took the captain's armband off Taarabt after joining the Londoners in August, has blasted the Moroccan's workrate and told him to buck his ideas up.

 

Barton said: "It's not a case of anybody giving him advice, it's whether it's taken on board.

 

"This is the top level of world football and if you're not prepared to work hard you'll come up massively short.

 

"If I was Adel and had his ability, I'd not want to be coming up short, having not worked hard enough.

 

"I came here and was told he was a genius and I'm yet to see it. I don't know whether it's because he does not work hard enough or whether he tends to sulk."

Taraabt is probably a sulker and a bit of a knob, but Barton should keep his mouth shut in public about it. That and everything else.

 

He can't help it. Can you imagine what he must have been like at school? Must have been unbearable. I think he'll become more and more popular with age and become a 'loveable' figure. It's just a relief to not have him tweeting any shit from behind the scenes. I wonder how many 'the spirit is unbelievable' comments there'd have been, had he stayed with us

He's still a fan.  :(

Good luck to Newcastle today, hopefully they can keep their momentum going. #toonarmy

 

:thup:

 

Urgh, what a suck up. Thought he wrote off the owner and the moves that were made this summer? No doubt he would have been mouthing off if Newcastle were struggling. Embarrassing.

What are you talking about? Just because he fell out with the owners doesn't mean he doesn't have an affiliation for the club.

no one taught him how to be a man , no one taught him how to behave when he went from £300 to £6500....excuses joey, how come all the others didn't behave the way you did.

 

sociial media is a propaganda machine....so says the twitter whore.

I agree with the stuff he was saying about Giggs/Terry/England Rugby Team. Barton was raised in a rough area of Liverpool and with a (somewhat dysfunctional) family like his, can imagine it being pretty hard to be raised "conventionally".

if barton had been a carpet fitter with exactly the same background you'd say he was a twat, because he's a footballer who for a time played well for your team you'll change the criteria.

Good point but what I think is that Barton has paid his dues (his time in prison and all that). Not sure if you can fully forgive him for his actions but he has tried to better himself as a person (checking into the Sporting Clinic and getting his anger issues sorted out) and he has shown a reformed character. Of course, he's still got of a bit of a nutter in him (mouthing off and all that) mind but less so now than when he was at City and during the early part of his career here.

It would be almost bearable if his opinions were original or interesting, but they're neither. It's the same kind of blurb that you can hear in a pub or round a dinner table any day of the week. It's only because he's Joey Barton that he's getting any attention.

 

Meantime, he needs to pay attention to the fact that the team that he's supposed to be captaining seems to have their problems. I can't imagine that his team-mates are too enthralled by the daily editions of The Joey Barton Show while all that's happening.

Its funny but his opinions and circus style drama queening is quite entertaining now, the main reason for that is he is no longer our player, he may say embarrassing things at times but they no longer embarrass us, he is Q.P.R.'s problem now.

 

He really is a human form of marmite.

Why does Barton talk so much? Are the public this interested in the opinions of adequately skilled English midfielders on relegation-bound teams? The opinions of Stilyan Petrov, John Obi Mikel, and Wilson Palacios aren't filling the papers, either. He complains about being under constant scrutiny, but he could probably end this by not talking so much. He is an irrelevant player in all honesty.

Quite similar to Kylie Minogue moaning about people always talking about her arse, every chance she gets she waving it about.

 

I think the the term hypocrite is quite apt for the pair of them.
