alpal78 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 No they're right, long may he continue ripping into the club and our new players No chance this will be picked up by the media or anything like that, as long as Ashley is one of those who reads it it's all good Never agreed with that btw. Started this argument before he made that Tweet. and now that he has started attacking our players, what do you think of his tweets? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpal78 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Wish he still played for us. Love the thought of Obertan setting up all our goals this year. FML How many goals did Barton set up and weren't most of them from free kicks which presumably others (Cabaye) can take from now on? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Some of that £59m covers a fair chunk of the £25m or whatever we spent on this bloke in fees & wages for 8 months work anyway. Nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasper Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Some of that £59m covers a fair chunk of the £25m or whatever we spent on this bloke in fees & wages for 8 months work anyway. Nice.

Optimistic Nut Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 It's more a dig at Barton tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Brazilianbob Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Joey Barton is perfectly entitled to voice his opinion, the last time I looked there was freedom of the press in this country and as such Joey is perfectly entitled to air his opinions as long as they are not libalous or slanderous.. In my view I believe he is the most qualified of all of us to comment on the actions of Ashley and Llambias because he knows them. We just have opinions formed from what we read in the press and their actions (or should that be their inaction). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already buying into the "count all wages into the transfer budget" thing. Nice. You obviously bought into the 'all £35m will be reinvested thing', so what's the difference? Both were said by the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyP Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Disappointed about what he said about Santon, as i rate him very highly and am elated by his signing, but facts are that he is unproven in comparison to Jose...we will see... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 More caps than Barton, Nolan, Carroll and Jose put together and he's not even 21. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasper Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 More caps than Barton, Nolan, Carroll and Jose put together and he's not even 21. I dont see anything wrong with what Barton says about Santon. It's what everyone here is thinking or should be thinking instead of expecting him to be amazing straight away. "selling their assets and replacing with cheaper gambles. Santon?? 16 games since 2008, in a poor Italian league, hardly proven PL" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Except he's played about 50 games in that time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 In fact he's made more Champions League, top flight and international games in 3 years than Joey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sicko2ndbest Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 I don't see what Barton has said wrong at all We are all delusional fools. He is asset stripping from under our noses and yet we still have hope Absolutely spot on imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 In fact he's probably done more by 20 than what Joey will by 30. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gemmill Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 In fact he's made more Champions League, top flight and international games in 3 years than Joey.

Do the words Andy and Carroll mean anything to you? We sold a guy for twice what he's worth, stop the press. Arsenal are clearly asset-stripping too. So are Birmingham and Everton and hell, even Liverpool are asset-stripping. Players get sold, it's a fact of life. It's not asset-stripping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gemmill Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Fucking hell lads, have you heard of reinvesting? I should have known better than to come on here and try and talk to the Ashley apologists. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 How is Carroll not the exact epitome of asset stripping? Sold him for 35m in January, broke even in this window. Barton, Nolan and Enrique's wages must be pretty close to the Ba, Marveaux, Cabaye, Santon and Tiote's raise as well. Still, let's facepalm everything. We'll seem smart then!!

Karjala Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Joey7Barton Joseph Barton Nice to see MA and DL come through with their promise to reinvest AC money, 59m net profit from transfers in last 5 seasons.....ambition??? Joey. He's quite right Yeah, nothing wrong with what he said, certainly less bullshit than AP spouts out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
