TRon Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Like Colocho says, it seems to me that Pardew would probably go along with getting rid of Barton but he is now thinking "what's the chances of a replacement coming in?" No wonder he's hedging his bets at this moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Pardew seems to think that he can repair the damage that's been done between Joey and the owner, and between Joey and the rest of the team, through the relationship that he himself has got with him. Either that, or like any anxious manager, he wants to keep hold of one of his best players if at all possible - at least until there's a replacement in. It all feels unrealistic. Too much has happened and I don't think Joey himself, in this 'victim' mode, has enough insight to make the necessary adjustments. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen anything to suggest that we have a problem between him and the other players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much has happened and I don't think Joey himself, in this 'victim' mode, has enough insight to make the necessary adjustments. is it anything to do with the expectations of a 'buying' club? he's available for free, but what would joey be owed by nufc, in terms of wages and bonuses, if his contract was to be cancelled to allow him to move? maybe 3.5/4m? maybe its less, i dont know, but that money has to either be paid by the club to barton, paid in part or in full by they 'buying' club, or written off in part or in full by joey himself. if we were acting like it was impossible to see joey staying beyond august, the buying club would not join negotiations to get the problem of this payment out of the way. i'd imagine newcastle would at least want half of this paid by (everton? stoke? whoever) if he was to leave. remember the payment man city owed joey, it was much less and he waited for it before he moved Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggs Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Has he been confirmed in or out of the last friendly? Journal this morning says he's out: "The midfielder has been withdrawn from tomorrow’s friendly against Fiorentina and trained with the development team yesterday but the change in tone from Newcastle’s furious reaction to his Elland Road Tweets was marked. And, while Pardew chose his words carefully, it is clear that his personal relationship with the midfielder is repairable."

Guest Roger Kint Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Geoff Hurst just said he would be devastated if Barton ended up at WHU. Hopefully the full audio will be online later, maybe such little interest in him is down to the same reasons he cited. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely if you want him to stay, you should be delighted at what Hurst has said? Or are you just upset at poor little Joey's reputation being besmirched?
