shear class! 0 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 In the paper today it said that portsmouth are going to make a bid for Barton? I would just like to know your thoughts on if you would sell or keep Joey? Personally I would keep him, a box to box midfielder who allways puts his all in. A bit of passion and fighting spirit. I know he has had some bad times but that does not bother me, I would deffinitly not sell Barton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14021 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Definitely Keep. He's an important part of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shear class! 0 Posted January 26, 2009 Author Share Posted January 26, 2009 Definitely Keep. He's an important part of the team. Plus the way that newcastle have been going in the transfer market, they wouldn't be able to even replace him. I keep reading all these players linked with the club but nothing has come of it so far. Will we even sign anyone? aprt from the one we have till the end of the season. The squad is way to small! ASHLEY GET YOUR CHEQUE BOOK OUT YOU TIGHT ASS...!

smoggeordie 0 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I'd sell if we had any decent alternative. However, we don't, and are unlikely to have come February 2nd. Keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jusoda Kid 1 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 No and I would make him captain before Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonGoodwyn 1 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 We need him - we're lacking badly in the CM department and we won't get a replacement as good as him for the kind of money being talked about (3-5 million) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingKev 0 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 We need characters like him at the club - says what he thinks, Enrique is bloody rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonpack 10059 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 We need characters like him at the club - says what he thinks, Enrique is bloody rubbish. No he's not, he's just yet another young foreign player not given a proper chance (as in brought through properly) On Barton, if (big if) he was to be replaced - sell him yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingKev 0 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 (edited) We need characters like him at the club - says what he thinks, Enrique is bloody rubbish. No he's not, he's just yet another young foreign player not given a proper chance (as in brought through properly) He's here now for one and a half years. How much time do you want to give him? Until we are in the fucking Championship?! EDIT: I agree that Enrique isn't a rubbish player, he's just rubbish for the Premiership.

Dr Gloom 22203 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 he's crap and yet he's our best midfielder so no, we can't afford to sell him. unless we buy at least two superior centre midfielders (not going to happen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottish Mag 3 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 We need Barton, however I am still hoping Boro or Everton come in for Smith.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Manson 0 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I see Ben Watson has gone to Wigan. He would've been a good signing, I've always thought he looked quite a handy player. Oh well, I'll be content with a midfield of Barton and M'Bia... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaythesouthernmag 0 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Would keep him as we are not exactly flush with CM`s plus he is in a minority who I think may be up for a relegation scrap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano 0 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 (edited) Sell Barton? Fuck NO! I too would make him captain, he's a character and he's vocal, and i'v always sided with the idea that your captain should be a centre half or a central midfielder...NOT a striker, and yes before people chime in about Big Al, he was a good leader but a midfielder is my preference, someone in the engine room. I quite like the idea of him and guthrie, i know some disagree but i think it would work well giving a run of games. And the idea of Mbia and Barton is an even better one. I just hope we push through this deal. Edited January 26, 2009 by Geordie Lad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty84 0 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 i'd definatly keep him and i hope he would reject a transfer even if it got accepted, he owes this club (or keegan!) and the fns especially for sticking by him first for just buying him and giving him another chance after city, and then for still being a twat outside of football and giving him the support through it, FFS he's been in jail! hopefully he has some morals and realises this, if he does then i'm sure he will contribut a lot of passion to the side. the only downfall in this is effects on other players if he keeps shouting his mouth, something that is needed but there's a tactful way to do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-I-S-S-O-K-O 0 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I'd sell if we got anywhere near our money back. He's as weak as a kitten and just hasn't done it in black n white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 4418 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Pompey have signed two midfielders today so this is probably dead. I think Barton falls into a group of players whose sale would guarantee relegation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTF 7583 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 We need characters like him at the club - says what he thinks, Enrique is bloody rubbish. If Enrique has been rubbish, then Barton is but a flea on a speck of shit on a pile of rubbish. Seriously, Enrique has given much more to Newcastle than Barton has. He's either been injured, or crap, has probably turned in 2 or 3 decent performances for us. We can't afford to let him go unfortunately, and there is a chance he will return to his former 'glory' (on the field, not fighting his teammates, burning people with cigars, or beating up kids).
