Arsenal targeted Barton quite obviously in the game, I find it quite funny how badly it ha backfired now
No I'm just a not a complete soft twat who wants football to become none contact. In the thrusts of a physical encounter and sporting situation, sometimes because of the adenalin, it will spill over. It happens most weeks in every football game. With your reasoning we'd be playing 9 and 10 aside games every week across the country. It matters not, grabbing someone in an aggressive manner in football is a yellow card offence. Its funny there is no such furore when other teams players do it like say Rio Ferdinand. Didn't our own Danny Simpson do something similar with Hernandez last year? Funny there was no furore then either. Too much reading The Sun and The Star methinks!
TBF, I can see why you have this on the Newcastle board but not sure why its on ours. I think we did Barton to death over the weekend.
Get over it....move on! It's water under the bridge. I'm so sick of the same subject being brought up STILL by other teams fans. He admitted he shouldn't have picked him up like he did but didn't like the fact Gerv was trying to cheat the team as a whole going down so easily looking to rob us of a point.
Funnily enough, all the Geordies that I've spoken to regarding Barton, think he is a total tit and should be banned for life..But there again, they are all Sunderland supporting Geordies from Jarrow and Hebburn...
Hahaha! Soz like pal but Joey Barton will not smash us all by himself and will most likely get sent off anyway! Id be worried if i were you, hes your best player and hes gonna **** yas right up, we have a good squad better than yours in many peoples oppinion! **** you geordie tosser!
Yes because of biased ****er mackems, you guys are deluded to. Its just the north east media is ran by biased mackem twats, put on Look North Sunderland season ticket holder who is always negative about Newcastle, the rest are no better. Cattermole is a thug, so is Gardner. Now **** off back to where u came from.
Your right he won't smash you's up by himself, Shola and Sammy will contribute to that massively! IN THE AMEOBI'S WE TRUST!
1. He's not our best player. 2. Hasnt been sent off since 2009, so by your logic Cattermole wont make it til half time. 3. We heard all this last season about how you're going to hammer us, keep it coming
[video=youtube;832-EFBtXtQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=832-EFBtXtQ[/video] Only difference between that and what Barton did was Barton got in Gervinhos face and expressed his distain for Gerv going down to easily. Gervinho was stupid enough to raise his hands and strike Barton in retaliation.
You're right. If it were Joey Barton v a Sunderland XI it'd probably end up a bore draw. Luckily we have ten other quality players, each a match for anything you lot have to offer. Should be a good game but Barton isn't the only one you should be worrying about.
Indeed we did. We'll just sit quietly again and see what happens. We're just the North East's little 2nd club afterall according to our Mackem friends, so we really shouldn't expect to get much. Thrown we are certain for relegation (you guessed it, again our mackem friends tell us) and if we beat them they should sack the manager, the board and all their players. They'll never learn.
Ah hence my earlier comments, I was sure I'd seen Rio react badly a few times to dives, getting in their face and dragging them up. I'm just a lazy bastardo and couldn't be arsed to find the evidence. I think that is case closed your honour. We now have cast iron evidence this is indeed a witch hunt based on dislike for one party.
Your right mate. Southamptons players are the saints. OP TBH Gervinho got sent off for raising his hands Barton should have got sent off & Song should have been sent off but they didnt its the rub of the green all clubs have bad calls made against them during the season its football mate **** all we can do about it.
You mean like beating up young Everton supporters, stubbing out cigars in people's eyes etc etc. LITTLE things!!!!!!!
