TRon Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Love how folk think Gosling can fill his boots when the lad has played about ten minutes of competitive football for us. Guthrie filled his boots well enough in the Championship when Barton was missing for half a season. We do have Tiote and Cabaye in the middle as well so it's not like we are light in midfield. Just shut up, man. Barton hasn't done great in central midifeld, which is why he's been moved wide right for a while now. He's not been great wide right either since Carroll left. Don't think about it too hard. I don't have to, mate. I'm fortunate enough to own a pair of eyes. Aye well them specs need a stronger prescription.

Guest palnese Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Just cannot see the logic in going to QPR at all. Long-term security. Aye, same as Nolan. Barton's got a kid on the way as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDT Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Barton said he was looking for long term security when he asked for his new deal but surely a move to QPR is the exact opposite of that, yes they may give him a long term contract but come May he may find himself a championship player. The fact no other team seems to have made him a concrete offer seems to show he's going for the same things as Nolan. Surely if he stayed for a season here and played which he would do, he may have better offers and even more money on the table come when his contract expires.

This is what I would have thought as well, tbh. Unless he actually wants out asap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LionOfGosforth Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Anyone who thinks we won't miss this player on the pitch AND in the dressing room is off his/her rocker. The fact we're giving him away is beyond belief but actually the least of the problems with this. I wonder where our wage bill will be after Barton's gone? Probably if not for Smith and Colo (who will be the next big name sold no doubt), in the bottom six of the league. Which is where we're going to end up if we keep chucking players out and not replacing them properly. If he leaves this window, we're a left back, striker AND a good midfielder down, 7 days to replace all 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Well duh, of course he's given PERMISSION to speak. Doesn't mean he'll be insane enough to go there. I'm not worried. I wouldn't be worried if he did, he's been distinctly average for quite a few games now and his free kicks are crap. Rather keep him but he's not a player I'd be gutted to see leave.

Fiftynotout Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 This "long term security for my family" stuff that Nolan and others go on about is wonderful!!! They get about £3million a year man - how "secure" do they want to be - how the hell do the rest of us survive? Real world scenario needed again. Fair enough if they just said more money or longer contract = more attractive job, but, please, save us the "kids / family security" stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If everyone loved loveable Joey like the Newcastle fanboys do then he wouldn't be short of offers, but the only high profile clubs who could afford Barton's wages can buy better players. Hence the awful reality sinks in that only the likes of West Ham and QPR will be interested. Tough to take for some but I predicted it months ago.

gbandit Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Will miss his determination if he goes, and attitude on pitch but will much prefer him fucking his life up in someone else's colours. Don't even know where I am on this anymore Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Just cannot see the logic in going to QPR at all. Long-term security. I hate this "long term Security" that these greedy bastard millionaire footballers throw around. Security, what a load of shit. They are set for life before they even hit there mid twenties, it has nothing to do with long term security and all to do with down right greed. The typical culture of the modern day footballer.

I wouldn't be worried if he did, he's been distinctly average for quite a few games now and his free kicks are crap. Do you think that maybe part of the reason he's been arguably below par (not sure I agree but it's certainly debatable) is because of the way this club's idiot hierarchy have treated him? That perhaps morale is more of a problem than the ability which he showed for large parts of last year? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
