    Joey Barton has hinted that Sunderland made an approach to sign him before his decision to join Queens Park Rangers.

    Christ that was a close shave - if true

    he might be a right **** but he is a good player and would walk into our midfield

    Dont care how good he is - he would not be right for our team - would have caused major grief in the dressing room.

    Agreed

    So if the rumour is true, why would bruce be looking to bring him in. Has he decided that Gardener, Vaughan, Larson and the Egyptian are not good enough?

    Smacks of desperation to me - why else would Bruce be willing to take such a big risk.

    No football club stands still (theoretically) - there's always someone who will improve the team..

    Depends on the interpretation of 'improve' of course....

    What are QPR doing to do about his £80k/week 4 year deal when they're in the Championship?

    How easy it must be for him to say we approached him but he turned us down! he loves the limelight and this crap will be all about him saying "look at how loyal I am my geordie muckers I even turned the mackems down for you" what a tit!
