    Joey Barton is now in London, looks like he is getting a lift with SSN David Craig. Been told there is a TV crew outside the station.


    Seems all very setup

    Llambias requested he handed it in whilst he was on the chopper already going to Liverpool after being told he was going and thats it.

    The deal got accepted.....he left on the chopper.....suddenly got rejected....a transfer request suddenly came about....and then got accepted again.........All when AC was already on his way...!!

    As stupid as this all sounds, the events of the day happened because I remember following it all day long.

    Carroll says this happened also and I believe him. He aint that clever to come up with a story like this. Where as Derek L is capable of coming up with ANYTHING.

    I actually work in Shepherds Bush, haven't seen him yet, should probably run over to the ground.

    Anyone know where I can get a live stream of Sky Sports News while I'm at work? Wanna listen in to what's happening.

    Sorry Bano, but you're starting to sound like a conspiracy theorist now.
    Also regarding your remark about him willing to accept a paycut, he had previously said that but then his agent (Willie McKay) directly contradicted him by saying the opposite.
    Yes our club are court proven liars but that doesn't mean you should be as naive to think that others including players can lie to us, the fans, too (god knows they do it with the whole badge kissing ****e anyway).

    Ah, I see. I forgot that people immediately do exactly what Llambias tells them even if it goes against everything they want and firmly believe in.

    Was just thinking this.

    It all seems a bit public and a bit set up... Travelling alone (at least his agent or advisors weren't reported to be with him) on a train with 2 journalists and with a TV crew waiting for him in London... Something's not right here at all unless it has all been finalised already. I doubt this would happen if he was purely just going down to listen to an offer.

  10. I hope that people start to lay off Carroll now they've finally realized what tits Ashley and Lambarse are.

    At the end of the day if you're offered 80k a week and a chance to play in the CL soon enough, you're gonna take it.

    There's no such thing as 100% loyalty in football anymore. I don't blame Carroll for leaving.

    We should have matched what he was going to get at Liverpool if we really wanted to keep him.

    Shearer wouldn't have stayed for 50k a week, i guarantee it, especially if Newcastle were mid-table and were selling their best players.

    When you have basically been told you have no future at the club and you are no longer wanted; but in order for the deal to go through we need a 'transfer request'; you aren't gonna tell the pilot to 'Turn this chopper round!' like some free thinking, vigilante. Did he want to go to Liverpool for £80k a week, absolutely. Would he have rather stayed here, absolutely.
    Thats the point.

    Carroll, Nolan and soon to be Barton have all took the second best option as the first prize was not available to them.

    I actually don't agree with that at all. I don't think the club should be held to ransom by the players. They get paid enough that if the *really* want to play for a club (like most of them say they do) they can be the ones to "just take him" (to paraphrase your message) - why should the club *always* have to bow to the players will?

    Why should the club just give in to them? We obviously have a strategy in place for our future dealings - we buy young and promising, get the lads in on long term, low pay contracts; and then build a solid financial footing from there. A la Arsenal.

    Ok, you might not like it. And maybe the shinanigans at Arsenal right now are showing that it maybe isn't the easiest policy to make work. But IMO, it is a damn sight better than what we had under FFS.

    All of the players could have stayed at the Toon if they had wanted too. They all still had contracts, and all they had to do is not talk to the other clubs. The players chose to leave, and i don't take any of this "they were forced out bullshit"

    Barton can stay, Barton can go. The Toon will move on, and so will I.

    Im not actually. I dont think Elvis is alive, the moon landings were fake, and there were 3 gunmen who killed JFK (i wish it were joe f. kinnear)

    Its just the pathetic way Llambias and Ashley work. Because it may sound far fetched doesnt mean it didint happen.

    All of the players who we are talking about ALL wanted contracts to stay. ALL of them. Giving the fact it may be money, or length of contract, or whatever it may be. They have been sold by the club against there No.1, first choice, wishes.

    Those are the facts.

    Whether we agree with the clubs stance in selling them is another issue.

    Why would the club say he has no future at the club after he came through the youth team and be came one of the big players of the season!!!!!

    Had he stayed he would have been a legend in his home town, and they are hardly going to stick him in the reserves are they.

    Admittedly £35 million is a stupid amount to turn down as is £80K a week, but no place at the club sounds total bollcok mate.

    This situation isnt going to help the media go cold-turkey on what is clearly the chronic illness of Bartonitious, any situation in football will now be related to Barton over the next week!
