AlanSkÃrare Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 If we lose Barton and Enrique this summer, next season will be a struggle for sure. Him and Nolan are the core of this side in terms of spirit. What the fuck is going on.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kane2005 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I have no doubt in my mind that Newcastle United want to keep this player , however if like Andy Carolls agent , Joey Bartons agent is demanding silly wages then well done and fair play to Newcastles board for sticking to there guns. We either want a stable club in a good financial position or go back to square one. . . . My only other point is that , in all honesty , if we want to be a big club once again , you might have to break the bank now and then for core players who have proven themselves to be a fighter for the team , and Joey Barton is one of them.

Lush Vlad Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 What a fucking joke. How do you reward your standout performers? By not offering them a contract and letting them leave for free! Think all the high earners left like Joey, Jose, Colo and Nolan (apparently) will be following him out the door. Maybe they won't fancy taking a massive pay cut either, who knows. Either way, the board strikes again. What is that now, fuck up #896? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 The next evening talk will be interesting. Hopefully this is all part of the neogitation process, but it all sounded so final there. Lets hope the club comes to their senses soon, because whilst the Carroll deal didn't break the team spirit, doing this to Barton will. Having said that, if we do sign a winger and this 'international central midfielder', unfortunately I'd struggle to find a place for Joey in the first XI.

Frazzle Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Whilst there is a massive chance this is a cock-up on the part of the ownership...I think Barton should settle what he's being offered. Sounds harsh but he's the one who keeps banging on about wanting to stay and kissing the badge etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, the board strikes again. What is that now, fuck up #896? Would you be willing to pay Joey £70kpw in to his 30's? Not that's what he's demanding, im just pointing out the club might be protecting itself for the future depending on his demands. He's lived a good life off us for some time, most of it injured or in prison, maybe the club feels the deal they are offering is a good one considering the past. Who knows? His agent is one of the biggest cunts on the planet as well, sure that doesn't help things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hobshobs Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Not at all surprised considering Willie McKay is the agent. That said I'd rather Joey stayed ahead of Nolan. Better all round player and as important, more pacy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
