Would you take him?

The wages he is supposedly on then no.

Known for his antics on and off the field but isn't a bad player by no means.

No, never. Not worth the bother. I'll never forget the cowardly way he got sent off for kicking one of the Man City players when his back was turned a year or two ago, when he was sent off.

Utter shithouse.

No thanks.

He's often an embarrassment.

He's not good enough to warrant his baggage. I would much rather the likes of Kimbo, Mutch, Gunnarsson and Whittingham... even if it is for the sake of morality! :ayatollah:

He was at the City game last night?

Would never take him. A pure embarrassment! Never.

Very good player but not worth the risk.

Re: Joey Barton

just seen on ssn, Barton talking to someone in a club jacket next to goalposts, maybe at the training ground?

Re: Joey Barton

Yes he's amazing.

The guys a thug. Wouldn't take him any more than I'd take Marlon King.

We could do with a nasty piece of work in the middle of the park. Good player but he will need to sort himself out if he did ever come to Cardiff. Could you imagine Bellamy and Barton in the same changing room? Haha

Off to Everton, phew

Joey Barton joined Malky Mackay for talks after their game with Brentford tonight. Mackay would like to sign the midfielder. #CCFC #QPR

He was at our game last night, and tweeted that we need to improve massively

Then again I trust Malky's judgment more than him :ayatollah:

He also tweeted a few months ago that Neymar was the "Justin Bieber of football - great on Youtube but cat's piss in reality".

Further proof if it were needed, that he's full of shit...

Joey Barton was in the area and wanted to watch the game.

Considering we are in for Capoue, I think the centre area of midfield will be sorted.

Re: Joey Barton

Wed Jul 31, 2013 5:57 pm

Malky wouldn't have someone like him

Re: Joey Barton

Wed Jul 31, 2013 6:03 pm

People seem to be forgetting... we have Craig Bellamy.

Bellamy and Barton in the same dressing room?

that'd be one hell of a volatile situation! :)

Sky reporting that his agent is in talks with Everton. Barton has apparently said Everton are the only team he would accept a drop in pay to play for.

Re: Joey Barton

Don't want to worry anyone but a poster on CCMB says that Barton's staying at the Vale Hotel tonight, apparently his daughter works there! Shown on Sky Sports talking to Malky and his staff after the game at Brentford last night and now this information, seems odd if true.
