http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/16661074.stm I don't like Warnock but he signed Barton and gave him a chance to shine and looked after him, to come out with this stuff is pretty despicable I think.
If you look on Twitter now he's still posting some ridiculous guff, maybe Hughes needs to have a word in his ear?
I think he is quality, ok so he is a bit outspoken but let's face it Colin is a ****er, and as club captain if he isn't happy with a situation he should speak to his chairman. I follow him on twitter and yes some if it is tosh but some is funny as ****, my thought is most of us on here who use twitter will follow Joey and tbh he is prob one of the first names we follow.
He is actually very good on twitter, he just gets carried away sometimes and doesn't know when to shut up, yesterday was one of those times.
He needs to wind his neck in sometimes, I suppose he's only giving his honest opinion about the former manager of the club he plays for, but some of the stuff he puts on Twitter etc won't win him many friends.
As was pointed out at the time, the Boateng comments reported were taken in isolation, around them were comments saying it was down to the players including himself as well. There's no lack of class or decency in coming out and saying we all ****ed up. As back up for the press ignoring parts of comments to stir things up with Brown, remember the "Folan hasn't looked like scoring" comment they reported, without including the bit where Brown had said that in fairness it was because we hadn't created any chances for him to score from?
Warnock refuses to enter a war of words, sensible thing http://www.teamtalk.com/news/2483/7445541/Warnock-won-t-enter-Barton-war
So people think he's a twat for his views on Twitter but not for the things he's done ie stubbing his cigar out in the eyes of one of his team mates at a christmas do. Him, Warnock, and Derry in the same team- should have got on like a house on fire. Who'd have thought it would have ended this way?
I like Barton these days, mainly because the things that make the headlines surrounding him (such as the Gervinho incident on the first day of this season) are usually someone else's fault and I tend to be on his side. He used to be a crazy bastard but he made a big effort to sort himself out and now he's just outspoken rather than psycho. That said, this QPR situation seems incredibly bizarre to me, I don't know who to believe. It seems like one of the weirdest sackings ever to me but comments like this make me wonder.
Bartons putting his foot in it again commenting on John Terry's case in a prejudicial way- maybe somewhere they are offering odds on when he gets told to stay off the site?
To be fair to him, if you just read his tweets it looks a lot worse than if you have Collymore's page in another tab and flick between them following the conversation. Barton's on it's own looks like he's having an argument with Collymore and calling him "the arsehole who tweets for talksport". The conversation as a whole reads as Barton being annoyed about the delay and Collymore being a friend trying to calm him down, with Barton asking who a 3rd tweeter in the discussion is. He still shouldn't be talking about an active court case.
Not sure but think some of the stuff he's been coming out with has been deleted, maybe too little too late though.
