Joey Barton - Sinner or Sinned Against

[Selectabet]

Personally I can't be @rsed with him.

Some of his tweets on twitter reek of him trying to take the moral high ground. Pffffffffffff.

If I owned a football club I wouldn't touch him with a bargepole. Trouble waiting to happen and an instigator of dressing room strife.

The last thing Scottish football needs is Joey Barton. The place would implode!

He is, however, the best midfielder in England

Think he's trying to stand up for the fans which is quite a good thing but I'm suspicious that it's happened during a summer when he's been linked with Arsenal and Liverpool.

Does seem like Newcastle are in a bit of trouble sold off Carroll & Nolan with Barton and Enrique both said to be going, they don't seem to have bought many replacements.
