Just had a text saying that Joey Barton is currently at the AoL discussing signing for us!!! Please god no! My mate text me and he heard it through the grapevine as you do - is anyone on here ITK? PLease can you deny this horrendous, malicious rumour
Haha. Can't see it, but let's look past all the ****, he's a good footballer. Would I **** want him here mind.
This would be the most unexpected transfer of all time. Funny though. Assuming your mate is pulling your leg but you never know.
If he was as good as Messi and Ronaldo combined I still wouldn't pay a penny to watch Sunderland until the day he ballsed up and left. ( at least I wouldn't miss many games)
God I hope so! I understand that, football talent wise, he's not a bad player - but he's a complete (as sid says) cnut! Can't stand the bloke - Catts would be a much better option!
Dont know how i would feel about it Pdc would end up killing him Edit : nope, thought about it i'd puke
i really cant see this happening. with pdc being a stickler for the clubs rules and code of conduct i cant see him wanting barton
"To me it is clear that we need a real playmaker, with a real identity, and not just a player who can fill in, in that role." Paolo Di Canio Barton??????????????????
I would be gutted, and believe it would spoil all of Di Canio's good work in one fell swoop...So let's hope it is just a wind up..
Hope you're right Reg! I have text a couple of my mates who work at the ticket office and they know nothing either way! Normally they're quite ITK
I reckon it is in SAFC's constitution that we MUST buy him - or perhaps Bellamy. It must state we have to have at least one d**khead in the squad, and McClean's just gone. x
