Jonzey 0 Posted August 2, 2011 I find it strange that Newcastle gambled 5.8 million on a known trouble maker, discover he is an overpaid trouble maker, and release him for nothing?! Yet another amazing decision by Ashley, what a joke that club continues to be. Also, I had to laugh at Barton''s Wikipedia. He is quoted as saying he left Man City to join Newcastle to ''Win trophies''. Course you did son. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

norfolkbroadslim 223 Posted August 2, 2011 If West Ham did manage to secure his signature they will walk to the title next year. Heck, even Avram Grant couldn''t fail to get them promoted............. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
