Guest Eric Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 That implies that the current squad are somehow taking the p (sorry i can't post that as i'm at work) out of the fans. Sorry, but there hasn't been a newcastle side in recent memory who have "taken the p" less! It implies absolutely nothing of the sort, it SAYS he despises everything they stand for and for that reason he can't lie to himself. He says the club are doing so well despite MA and DL because the players and manager are doing so well (i.e. not taking the piss) The lengths some people will go to, to defend these clowns running our club is truly unbelievable, seeing stuff that isn't there, making stuff up or ignoring it when the same thing actually should be said against Llambias (I'm talking the Speed reference here which was thrown at Barton somehow) I think someone said the other week that it was some kind of defense mechanism, it beggars belief. He's intelligent, articulate and worth listening to when interviewed, doesn't strike me as a liar, he knows his faults and he's actively trying to make himself a better person, Llambias on the other hand is a disgusting human being and is despised to a man by everyone at SJP from what I hear. I know which side of the story I'd believe and it's clear as day who's talking shit (empty threats), getting into a war or words (when claiming not too) and using Gary Speed to curry favour in a appalling manner.

Guest je85 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Joey7Barton Joseph Barton Dont listen to Radio 1 but hearing Moyles has been giving me a bit. Does he really want to do this? Whats with these people? #helmets 2 minutes ago I could think of nothing more vomit inducing than those two argueing with eachother. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He shouldn't have said anything though, obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't understand why he has brought the death of Gary Speed into the row with Barton. Completely unecessary. Being as cynical as I am towards Llambias, I can only assume it's to get some kind of moral high ground over Barton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprisingly you are confused. Maybe some proof of these 'people' you refer to would have been a start as i have seen nobody setting out to defend the two wankers running this club. I see some people mature enough to understand the difference between acknowledging a rare correct decision and defending them but surely you arent stupid enough to think they are one and the same? Its also ironic that this thread has people blindly agreeing with Bartons bullshit as its a chance to shit on the aforementioned clowns.

quayside Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 This whole defence of Barton based on him being on some sort of "becoming a better person" mission doesn't wash with me. I have always thought he was a good footballer, and some of the twitter stiff was at first quite funny. But as a character, if you look at his track record, the very best you could say about him is that he's an attention seeeking, psychotic egomaniac. He had his ego bruised here and can't stand it. As for Llambias every time he makes some public pronouncement it seems to me to be oozing with cynicism and venom. I can't believe that isn't a true reflection of his character. I think he and Barton are both pretty reprehensible tbh although at least Barton is good at his job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the risk of some idiot misreading this i think Llambias didnt do too much wrong in saying what he did. Barton was begging for a reaction and no doubt some on here would have slagged him for keeping quiet too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Yeah, agree as well. Let's not forget that "becoming a better person" for Joey mean stopping assaulting people and getting imprisoned. He isn't suddenly the authority on good behaviour because he's keeping himself out of prison. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello Colocho So no irony and no example, glad we sorted that out. I do believe Barton as it goes, but that's not really the point, the point is he did an interview and he answered questions put to him, isn't that what we want them to do when they're interviewed? Or should we all completely change our opinion on this matter like we did Barton and start wishing they all give cliched answers that give nothing away like Michael Owen? If I think people are boring or I'm not interested in what they have to say, I don't follow them on twitter or discuss every word they say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Llambias maybe didn't say too much wrong. But neither did Barton tbh (his views on suicide on the day of Gary's death aside), I cannot really see why people have to valliantly defend one or the other (which is happening whether yous are meaning it or not). If he'd have tweeted this stuff a day after the stadium was renamed we'd all be lapping it up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
