TRon Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I don't blame him for going. Massive risk for his career mind, less so than Nolan but still the pair of them hardly look like ambitious players. Barton didn't look ambitous? Have a word. How did he look ambitious? He's gone from a team who play in front of 45-50k each week, to one that struggles to fill an 18k stadium. One that has barely made the back pages, despite being owned by two of the world's richest men for the past few seasons. He wasn't wanted here anymore. He still hasn't signed the contract there. We'll see but, if he signs there, it won't be because they're better club than we are, but because they have an owner who isn't totally stupid. If the owner's giving Barton a 5 year contract on more than 60k a week I'd say he is pretty stupid. Let's where we are two years into his contract.

S.S.R. Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 The ambition thing has long gone out the window since Nolan and Barton left for two shit clubs in London. Frauds. I see what you did there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxfree Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 At least it's QPR and not a competitive club, or West Ham. To draw something positive from it all. And yes, Barton in the same club as Taarabt - can't wait. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 If these £80k/£100k rumours are true then I have to argue with this stupidity point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David28 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I don't blame him for going. Massive risk for his career mind, less so than Nolan but still the pair of them hardly look like ambitious players. Barton didn't look ambitous? Have a word. Sorry but even Alistair Campbell couldn't spin this one. We play infront of 40,000+, we have players like Coloccini and Cabaye in our squad. Last year we were a sniff from a top half finish. I'm sure QPR have big plans, but they are not a better prospect than us because up until now they've spent just over 1m on players. For that they have gained two sicknotes from West Ham, Jay Bothroyd, DJ Campbell and Barton. If he's been 'sold a project' like Nolan fine, but I bet they'll be deploying him in central midfield where he'll be sub par at best. You can say 'well he needed stability' but he's gone for the easy option just like Nolan did. He didn't go for an easy job. For him, here it was mission impossible with this ownership.

Maybe Barton will seeing as he's Mr Honesty. I think it's sad they've gone for it tbh as we really are building something exciting here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
