It's the same incident, not enough evidence to charge with assault, so never reached court, not enough to convict of affray, so found not guilty. Yet another innocent Scouser hounded by our justice system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milk Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Yes. Big time... he's a square peg in a round hole in Glasgow ... But here , in this league ... YES... I'd deffo have him ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BramcoteRam84 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Definitely yes! We missed a trick not going for him last season. He would be perfect while Thorne gets back to fitness. Come on Rangers...sack him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StockholmRam Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 13 hours ago, McLovin said: That was a long time ago. Yes what he did was terrible but we all make mistakes. He is a much different person now. What does that have to do with his ability as a footballer anyway? Not as if he would start doing that to the Derby players just like Hendrick didn't start randomly attacking his teammate's, despite the antics on his night out. Let's not act like all our players are saints. I don't think we do act as though our players are saints... Id say Barton's previous record is stand out in my time watching English players... He should count himself very fortunate that there are still clubs that want to take him... Each to their own... But if he was as good as Pele I still wouldn't want him. Live had to work with some right scrotes in my job history. Didn't like them being there either. Is he much changed? Seems only a few years back he was losing the plot for QPR v Citeh, head butting players and fuse blown... Falling out enough with fellow players now, enough for his manager to tell him to stay away from the club!! I'm obviously reading between the lines this occasion but that's what track records tend to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still struggling to believe a single club would ever touch him, especially how he treats his team mates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jortat Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I personally wouldnt want him in a Derby shirt. I know some peoples attitude is all players bend the rules but Barton has been a thug throughout his career and been given more chances than any other player that i can think of. A big no thanks from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramchester Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Joey Barton who played in the Burnley promotion year and wanted him this year. Yes please. Yeah he's a ****, but he was quality for Burnley last year. Makes a lightweight midfield completive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeedsCityRam Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Ah, Joey Barton - shameless self-publicist & pub bore philosopher. It does amuse me how a guy regurgitating Sartre or throwing out a few generic remarks about social justice on Twitter, is lauded as an intellectual. He's basically a thuggish version of Russell Brand - loves the attention but doesn't really understand what he's posting. Incidentally, both Brand & Barton were shown up in different episodes of Question Time as the charlatans that they are, uniquely attracting more derision than the politicians on the panel during their respective appearances. I also don't think he'd benefit our team. Whilst its true he does add a bit of bite to a midfield, he's no longer as mobile or influential as his moderate heyday & he'd command big wages in our division. I also can't believe his abusive nature (dressed up as faux-concern for the fans) would help team morale. Yeah, we need a powerful, defensive midfielder - but that guy should be Bradley Johnson.
