Transfer Rumours Barton?

What? He said he wasn't wanted but the only man who didn't want him was Ashley. Now he goes and throws a tantrum and leave the club because one man wants him to go.

 

for all those saying "if he really loved the club..." etc you need to get real. he'll be in line for a signing on fee as he's going on a free. if he gets a 4yr deal it'll literally be worth millions to him and his secuirty is sorted for pretty much the remainder of his career. OR he can stay in a precarious position in his current club knowing they've washed their hands of him and he's taking a risk by staying for teh remainder of his contract.

you all need to get a grip if it came down to 'loving the club' for a year or making millions of pounds and securing your future only a ****ing idiot would say it was even a option. get ****ing real man.

 

You could be right there...its all ****ing bollocks the whole time!!
I can't stand this any longer.

 

I'd like to point out he's probably already earnt more than i ever will in my life so it's not as if he's strapped for cash

 

i have that shirt!

 

This lol, this a million times.

 

Some top4 club QPR are mind!
Barton will be lining up against Scunthorpe afterall then

 

I'm not even gonna get too down about this tbh. If it happens it happens. Nothing we can really do.

I will lose all respect for Joey though. Everything he's ever said about ambition, unfinished business at the club, wanting to stay, only wanting CL football will be complete and utter bullshit if he signs for those relegation candidates.

What is funny though is that all of McKay's chatter about loads of interest was obviously a load of ****e. After all that he's going down to speak to QPR

 

With the amount of players coming in this window, playing for Newcastle is becoming a bit too 'mainstream' for wor Joey

 

so if you were worth £5m and said "hey do you want to have another £5m?" you say no thanks i'm already loaded....i very much doubt it.

 

Yes, and if he does go, just wait for all the 'he was crap anyway' comments.

I'm not sure a move to QPR would show lack of ambition. They are a forward thinking club on the up and have ambitions that extend beyond mere survival.

Newcastle would play with a team of chimpanzees if Ashley was convinced they would stay in the PL. Just think of the reduction in overheads! A bunch of bananas for each player every week and some carpet cleaner ought to cover it.

 

Would normally have laughed this off, the thing that worries me is QPR have just been taken over by a somewhat ambitious owner and has already annoucned changes and refunds for season tickets and allowing fans under 8 to go for free..

I can see him offering Barton big wages, or why would Barton even begin negotiations if he had no interest in going there, just wasting his own time.. I can also see the chairman trying to get a big coup to get fans on his side, so may spare no expense.
The announcement in last few days he wont be in squad for thursday is also weird and usually a hint he maybe leaving!!

Bad times!!!

Hope im wrong

 

I wouldn't be surprised if he actually signs for Arsenal. Just putting it out there.

 

I'd be happy to play with a bunch of chimpanzees if we would stay up. Think of the money that it'd save.

 

Gosling looks lika good replacement for Barton - Just don't know what we'll do without his dodgy histerics and dives.

Also, will it affect the dressing room?

 

yes but that 'one man' who doesn't want him happens to be the wretched owner of our club who subsequently has the power to make Joey's life hell.
And he's hardly throwing a tantrum by going to london to CONSIDER another club who's owner is probably a lot less spiteful and a lot more generous than the one he currently is employed by.

 

This

 

I don't think it's down to this, it's down to the fact Barton had done nowt but say he wouldn't leave us unless it was for a "top club". If we all knew he was going for talks with Spurs, for example, I think everyone would be wishing him well. It's the fact it's QPR that's getting everyones backs up, hardly a top club! If he does go to QPR, he's just another football mercenary thinking about his wage packet, who will say anything to appease the fans of the club when he's there then not giving a **** when it comes to the crunch.

 

i would after the whole gervinho debacle. that'd be like a yorkshire whore house hiring peter sutcliffe to be their bouncer...

 

Imagine the enormous Chiquita logo on top of the stadium though.
