i understand what your saying gassy i do, but after you have served your time then you should get a chance, if he takes it is down to the individual, i like to believe joey barton has turned over a new leaf with newcastle as we have invested so much money in him, but im sure plenty of critics would say he has no place in pro football anymore, so time will tell, but now he will always have his haters, and he realises this and tbh i think sometimes this is why it happens because there is times when nothing happens and grief still flys, im not defending certain actions im just discussing how i see situations guys, so no flameing please
