toontownman Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 So is it right after Barton has signed we tell West Ham to forget about Parker as we never had any intention of selling him? Or is that what Parker tells them, before we tell him we were actually serious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Did he come back to St James or not or will he sign on thursday?? READ THE FUCKING THREAD. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Did he come back to St James or not or will he sign on thursday?? Can you not read the rest of the thread? Would appear he's come back but nothing official has been announced as of yet, so nobody really knows for sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasper Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I really don't understand why people are shocked at the alleged £70k p/w, tbh. We got him on the cheap from Man City and his wages are probably similar to Dyer's. He's undoubtedly a more consistent player than the self-styled King of Bling, and we'll get a lot more games out of him over the course of a season. Howay - Bramble's on £40k p/w at Wigan! It's mad, it's obscene, it's crazy...but that's just the way it is in football at the moment. So you seriously think that the fact Dyer is on stupid wage somehow justifies handing idiotic wages for Barton? Would you mind explaining how one mistake justifies another?

Dokko Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 WHU fans think they pulled out of the deal, he'll go to prison, SA offered him something 'special', that he chose more money over them and its his loss! mackems.gif Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you seriously think that the fact Dyer is on stupid wage somehow justifies handing idiotic wages for Barton? Would you mind explaining how one mistake justifies another? I don't think its just one isolated mistake. Take a look around at the report that was published the other day on Premiership wages - the wages of dozens of players are already at ludicrous levels. Also, with the new TV rights deal, clubs have another £30m (?) to waste. Small, newly taken over clubs like West Ham and Villa (tin hat on) suddenly have a LOT of spending power and can compete with bigger clubs. Wages and transfer fees are going to go into orbit. I just used Dyer as an example to compare Barton's cost today with what we already had, since I have nee real idea what the rest of our players are on (apart from Owen, like). How much is Emre on? How much was Parker on? Does anyone actually know if their wages are/were similar to Dyers? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest nufc 4 life Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 has everyone else read his audit very very [ormising and 3 times what we've had at Newcastle here it is for the people that haven't seen it Joey Barton's predictable exit from Manchester City is almost complete with the England international set for a move to Sam Allardyce's new-look Newcastle. Once again this presents the opportunity for an Opta Audit to see what Barton will add to the Magpies' midfield. Newcastle failed to score in 17 of their 38 league games in 2006-07, their worst performance in Premiership history, so goals from Barton would certainly be welcome, and he scored as many as the main Newcastle central midfielders last season all by himself. Player Goals Joey Barton 6 Scott Parker 3 Belozoglu Emre 2 Nicky Butt 1 And while Allardyce will be keen to see his midfield protect the often-porous Newcastle defence, Barton's ability to get forward and shoot on sight will make him a different proposition to the likes of the now-departed Scott Parker. Player Shots On Target Joey Barton 29 Nicky Butt 2 Scott Parker 15 Belozoglu Emre 6 Furthermore, Emre's total of just six shots on target all season was an extremely poor return from the Turk. Creatively Barton also outshone the Newcastle men last season, creating four goals for low-scoring Manchester City and creating 69 other goalscoring chances. Parker came nowhere near these totals. Player Goal Assists Key Passes Joey Barton 4 69 Nicky Butt 2 10 Scott Parker 1 17 Belozoglu Emre 2 36 But if there was no downside to Joey Barton then other, perhaps bigger, clubs would surely be rivalling Newcastle for his signature, yet they are not. Barton's weakness seems to be a disciplinary one, both off the field and on it, and while none of Newcastle's central midfielders saw red in the last campaign, Barton was sent off against Sam Allardyce's Bolton and was booked on a further 10 occasions. Player Yellow Cards Red Cards Joey Barton 10 1 Nicky Butt 5 0 Scott Parker 9 0 Belozoglu Emre 6 0 Nonetheless, if his new manager can tame Barton's wild ways, then he could quickly become a redeemed man in the cauldron of north-east football.
