Joey Barton completes move for £5.8m - Man City


Recommended Posts

Classy move by Newcastle. Wasn't worth having this get dragged through hearing after hearing with the freakin' FA. We are getting a really good deal at £5.5 million so why not just make it £5.8 million and let's move on and focus on what is important, which is getting a team together for next season without any negative crap.

 

Good stuff.

I would say more fool us if i didnt think the way the prices of english players are going we got him for a descent price. Guess SA didnt fancy missing out on another signing on the basis of 300k another one in the bag and lets move on.

Agreed. O0

 

When you look at the fee's Parker, Jenas and Reo-Coker have moved or are rumoured to be moving for, we've got ourselves a real bargain here.

2 signings already ... I'm so not used to this. I'm not sure I quite believe it.

 

Very pleased. We are moving along at a very healthy pace and so far we have actually made a profit transfer fee wise!

Glad its gone through, wish he would have just wavered the payment but at the end of the day why should he.

 

Man City are the villians in this not Barton. Cant wait to see Barton destroy city at St James's, he'll be chomping at the bit!

Was just thinking the same, 2 signings before mid June!!!

Good fucking riddance. Delighted to see the back of him, the baggage far outwieghs his ability. Delighted we stood our ground on this bonus issue too, which I assume is now over considering we've probably "paid" him with your money.

 

Now I wonder what washed-up never-was we should spend our 300k on...

Barton is such a wanker refusing to let that £300k go to the point that his new club had to step in and pay it.

 

He really doesn't do himself any favours.

 

Didn't he say something a few weeks ago about wishing players played for football instead of money?

 

Seem like a right dickhead, I'm afraid to say, not that we didn't know that already, but he's come to a new club looking for a fresh start and he can't even put pen to paper without kicking up a fuss out of greed.

I was thinking more Marcus Bent. :laugh: :uglystupid2:

 

Just looking at that pic on the Man City website I'm asking myself just what have we let ourselves in for?

 

Thats Barton getting sent off for a frustrated lunge on Abdouley (sp?!) Faye. I doubt that makes the top 10 Barton whoopsies  :laugh:

This, however, does. And its not even one of those things that you could just put down to a rush of blood or a moment of madness. :huff:

Don't want to sound like I'm defending him, but he comes across as a head strong character so maybe it was out of principal more than greed...

That was absolutely appalling, not something I hope to see from him in black and white.

Just got the official text from the club.  SMS users get the info first?  Bollocks do they...  First before Man Citys site,  the BBC,  Sky Sports & The Northern Echo :D

 

 

Confirmed its a 5 year,  £5.8m deal.  Nothing new there then.
