JH Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 could be bull could be true but the Sun is saying he initially refused to play yesterday after finding out he wasn't captain and has had a bust up with Pardew http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/3727354/Twits-all-over-as-Newcastle-boot-out-Joey-Barton.html http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/3727252/The-Twit-hits-the-fan-Joey-Barton-in-new-amazing-Newcastle-crisis.html This ones better, reckon Barton wanted more money after agreeing a new contract, money feckin money all along, if you believe this which we wont i'm guessing. That second one is written in a journalistic style that makes me want to cry. That's awful writing. It starts as a hard news story, dips dramatically into opinion, slips back into hard news and then back into opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This where things we dont know about have been going on, a total guess but maybe barton has been a bit narky and Pardew felt he shouldn't be skipper, like i say though were not going to know nothing about whats been happening.

Guest hobshobs Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I like how we stand by Barton when he went to prison, but this is the final straw "The law breaking and being banged up I could take Joey, but saying nasty things about us on Twitter?! I'M NOT HAVING ANY OF THAT! GET OUT!" True, and funny. I've been a supporter from far - from the states, roughly 15 years of my life I've followed this club...I get right p*ssed off when I read what goes on over there in regards to the mismanagment of such a beautiful and brilliant club, it aches my heart - I can't imagine what it does to you all in the city or near, born and bred Geordies who've given much more than I have to the club. I've done the best I could with the money I have and the resources available to me (tv channels, ppv, internet) to be able to able to watch or listen to nearly ever match. Today is the first day I'm really just tired of it all, falling out of love with the game. Its the whole lot - the contracts, the twitter, the anti-board, the pro-board, everything. For the first time in ages, at the beginning of the summer when we were making a dash with signings I felt excited...just to be kicked in the f'ng teeth again by not only Joey Barton, but those running the club. Oh Newcastle United, you absolutely rip us to shreds every single time we have any optimism don't you? Chin up Kanji86. This is all the doing of players who think they warrant improved long term contracts. Players who know there days in the team were numbered, etc. Yes, we could have done without this but I'm still hopeful we'll see a faster moving Newcastle United next season with more pace and attitude. We will be watching players who are happy to give there all for the agreeed sum they have been offered. Not moan and whine that they deserve more.

Razor Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I prefer the usual way round, get no signings early in the window then a late flurry to restore some optimism, this way round all we have is rampant (and warranted) pessimism, bloody atrocious conduct from all involved, i genuinely beleive Barton wants to play for NUFC more than any other prem club, but only on his terms, which is rather large pinch of salt, on the other hand i dont think Mike understands or gives a fuck.

Wallace Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Whether the stories about Barton refusing to play or rowing with Pardew are true or not, such stories will be fed to the media in order to quell fan disquiet and try and turn them against Barton. They have done with it with Keegan, Shearer, Given, Nolan and Carroll. It is Barton's turn now. I think it is interesting that the odd player comments seem to be supportive of Barton. He was certainly a favourite with the younger players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samag Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Just sad its come to this, both sides must take their share of the blame for the embarrassing headlines for the club.

I dont buy that propaganda stuff, it just too awkward to do if you dont control the whole media and every reporter, there is blame on both sides for me, if Ashley stays then its best Barton leaves, if Ashley was going then brilliant but hes not, so option one is the goer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest magpie99 Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 OK, here is my take on all this. The "boys club" is slowly but surely being disbanded by Ashley. Quite right too, when you consider what has been going on. I dont think anyone on here would disagree with the sale of Nolan considering his demands and Barton is turning out to be a troublesome influence. Enrique too. Fromlast season, we have lost Carroll, Nolan, Campbell, Kuqi, Routledge from the squad and effectively, Barton is now on his way too. I think someone like a Stoke or Wigan might pick him up for free. Furthermore, we cannot shift the likes of Xisco, Perch and Smith who are basically surplus to requirements. Ranger wont go and it seems he is surplus too. It looks like Kadar and other kids may be loaned out. Lua Lua is also gone. Coming in, we have Cabaye, Marveaux, Ba and Abeid (who is more of one for the future). We have Gosling and HBA coming back. We seem to be promoting some of the kids like Fergusin, Vuckic and Tavernier to the senior squad . We have now got the most paper thin squad in the PL and with our record of injuries, you have to say that if Pardew doesnt go out and buy at least 5 players in the next month, we are in for a long hard season. Ashley MUST see the danger signs and therefore has to release substantial funds for the following: two left backs, one a capable back up One centre half one right midfielder one goalscorer It seems as though mostof our targetrs have turned us down so here is my list: Sell Forster to Celtic for 2 million and buy Isaguirre from them for an additionaL 3 million Buy Warnock from Villa as a back up left back for one million Get Upson from WHU on a free transfer as the 4th CH Sign Barnetta for 5 million pounds (ony a year left on his contract. Sign Long from Reading for 5 million pounds Total expenditure - 14 million pounds - Salry costs per year approximately 9 million pounds per annum Outgoings Routledge to Swansea - 2 million Instead of a loan, sell Lua Lua to Brighton for 2 million Barton to anyone for free Forster salary costs Kadar loan salary savings 50% Total income and savings = 4 million -salary savings 5.5 million per annum That little lot will cost Ashley approximately 13.5 million. He has no other choice now but to spend or else we are in deep shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
