I'd take him on a Bothroyd type deal, £25k a week + add ons. Great player but obvs got a few problems... Would have to have it written in his contract 'One Strike (forgive the pun) and your contract is toast). Think he will go Liverpool or Spuds or something tho.
Thug yes, crap player - no way & although unsure whether be wise would undoubtably strengthen the squad particuarly defensive midfield where could use strengthening.

We have fast become the soap opera of the football world and the media circus does not look like slowing down, in fact we are soon to be turned into a full length movie should we buy Joey Barton and Jimmy Bullard and if we add Mario Balotelli 20th Century Fox will looking to make a film being a mixure of the "Dirty Dozen" & "Wild Bunch" Coming to a cinema near you soon......
To be fair, that film is gonna be juicy enough without messrs. Balotelli, Bullard + Barton. Can't wait to watch it
I can just see Shaun Derry, Clint Hill, Paddy Kenny and co. in a team talk pleading with Sir Neil, 'c'mon Gaffer, Joey Barton's on a free, be useful having someone like him around'!
