TaylorJ_01 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I wonder if he is still a fucking psychopath. I see a repeat of my experience with him on FM 'Oh I need a midfielder, sack it, I'll give Joey another chance, he's been working hard. Needs a run-out for the reserves first. Go get 'em lad!' http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m5/TaylorJ_01/joey.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thespence Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Last time Joey Barton played at Donny http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/05/20/article-1020708-02EC0D7D0000044D-338_468x286.jpg I'm pretty sure their is a few clubs where you will have a similar picture of the last time Barton played against them. This was a pre-season game in July 2004 I am sure he has changed his ways now. KK after that game: Angry Manchester City boss Kevin Keegan launched into Joey Barton after the midfielder narrowly escaped dismissal in the friendly at Doncaster. Barton sparked a 10-man brawl by hacking at Rovers' Paul Green, forcing Keegan to replace him at half-time. Keegan said: "I told him the truth - you either play football or you come off. There is no choice. "If we had been away from home in the Premiership and he did that, he would have been sent off." Barton clashed with Rovers' skipper John Doolan in the opening minutes of the 1-1 draw at Belle Vue. The spiky City midfielder then launched into Green as he attempted to shield the ball between his legs. Barton was yellow-carded, along with Rovers goalscorer Leo Fortune-West for a retaliatory tackle which left the City midfielder limping. As Rovers marked Barton out for special treatment, Keegan refused to show any sympathy for his young midfielder. Keegan said: "He thinks he can look after himself but when you get in this division and start doing things like that, people sort you out - and that's what they did. "I don't want to stop him being tenacious but I do want him focused on what football is all about. "I have a problem with any player who just wants to go out and be physical all the time. There is no future in that. "He has a nasty knock but hopefully he will learn from it because if he wants to fight, there are a lot of pretty tough players out there." In the 10 minutes following Barton's ill-advised tackle, Danny Mills, Steve McManaman and Richard Dunne all looked like getting dragged into petty feuds but fortunately the game settled down once the half hour mark passed. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_city/3923995.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 GK - Harper RB - Simpson LB - Enrique CB - Coloccini CB - Kadar RM - Routledge LM - Jonas CM - Nolan CM - Guthrie CF - Best CF - Carroll (Ranger) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 GK - Harper RB - Simpson LB - Enrique CB - Coloccini CB - Kadar RM - Routledge LM - Jonas CM - Nolan CM - Guthrie CF - Best CF - Carroll (Ranger) That midfield should be too much for Doncaster in my opinion.

Ronaldo Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Potentially 2 weeks from the Premier League and the only fit strikers in our squad are Nile Ranger and Leon Best, you couldn't make it up.

Fenham Mag Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Well, I'll be quite pleased if he plays as he is the only striker we've got that will score. Couldn't give a shit about discipling him just want us to win and get promotion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't give a shit about discipling him just want us to win and get promotion. Agree. Fine him massively, no point in punishing the whole team and the fans. Depending of course on the effect on team morale if he plays or not as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
