although barton is a massive twat, that fans' reaction pretty much proves his point

something less annoying

I think it's pretty good of Barton to stick his neck out for the rest of the squad there tbh

!Return of the Geordie One

Barton is spot on tbh.

Don't really enjoy going to the match any more because there are so many utter arseholes there who think we should be beating ANYONE at home and can't wait for it to be 0-0 at half-time so they can BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Kill Rock Stars

newcastle what an absolutely massive ****. hope barton leaps into the stand and stamps on him

Sparrows Anus

basically, yeah

benkeat

i was suprised at the geordie reaction last week, what were they expecting against a team containing gerrard, torres, reina, mascherano, carragher etc? the difference in quality was massive.

champions elect tbh.

PASSION

knapp...

i honestly wouldn't have newcastle fans any other way tbh. who would we point and laugh at? the majority are the biggest bunch of clueless, stupid football fans in the country.

i'm sure if they finally win the league cup they'll all claim to be proven right and that screaming abuse until their ready to burst and booing the players at every single opportunity was the right and justified thing to do.

long may it continue i say.

BoroPhil

he's spot on. Lee Cattermole said a similar thing about boro fans the other week (if you are going to come and boo, don't bother coming) and he hit the nail on the head as far as I'm concerned.

barton may be a twat but he's more in touch with the real world than most prem players.

Big Geordie

Nufc.com's response which is fair enough for me;

"As far as we're concerned, this is the right sentiment at the right time but coming from the wrong player. Joey Barton hasn't actually done anything for this club yet which somewhat undermines his rant."
