Thanks Joey (but no thanks).....

Considering his form, this must be down to his "personality". I can only assume that some (unreported?) incidents have occurred behind the scenes.

What is not stated is how much his agent was seeking from Newcastle as salary - therein lies the reason a contract has not been offered

Exactly. The way this is being reported you're lead to believe they've 'snubbed' him. He's been offered a deal and is being a greedy cunt. It's very straight forward and those questioning newcastle and calling the decision 'madness' are being very naive.

I was shocked at the way SSN reported this, talk about twisting a story.....it seems 'player snubs club' wasn't quite tasty enough so they turned it round and people have bought it

Hmmm, with McKay's history that wouldn't be surprising.

I read yesterday that Barton knew he would have to accept a deal on lower pay than his current package because he wanted a 4 year deal and is now 28. What is surprising is that Newcastle have made no offer whatsoever. Doesn't really make any sense does it? They are going to have to pay someone else to do the job plus a transfer fee. Must be more to this than meets the eye (no pun intended)

In about few hours using Twitter, Barton has managed to to create feud with Piers Morgan. That feller could start fight in empty room.

I reckon both of them could - Not sure which is more of a twunt. Morgan must spend his entire life on twitter.
