Well, Joey Barton did promise on Twitta that he would "tell all when the time was right" and he's
finally kept his word. Speaking in a long audio podcast interview for the Queen's Park Ranger's
'blog "Open All R's," he finally lifted the lid on his time at Newcastle United and his strained
relationship with [.
As question's are asked over the alleged £2.5 million in agent's fees involved in Joey Barton's
transfer to Queen's Park Rangers, Newcastle United's Managing Director, Derek Llambias, washed his
hands of the affair, insisting that he is "more than happy" for Newcastle United to be probed by
the FA over the deal.
With talk of Davide Santon to Newcastle seeming ever likely, the obvious question is where will he
fit into the squad? The 20 year old started plying his trade on the wing and gradually moved back
to his current position as full back, or to be more precise, wing back and despite being right
footed, [.
Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew has indicated that a huge amount of fees go to agents for
transfers and such, but just how much classes as 'huge'? One of the things I picked up on in
Workyticket's transcription of Alan Pardew's interview is that he (meaning Alan Pardew rather than
Worky) claimed we pay huge [.
The transfer market is a strange and sometimes scary place, with confusion abound by exactly how
much money we apparently have, others have the knowledge only provided by Football Manager and FIFA
and you'd be surprised how correct that actually is. The long and short is, we have never had £35m
to spend never.
Joey Barton has now confirmed that any chance of contract talks being renewed are "slim to none"
and that he was never offered any renewal on his existing deal. He also added that he would like to
stay in the Premiership, but has not been in contact with any other clubs as yet. This confirms

Newcastle United now seem to have been linked with most midfielders in France's Ligue 1, with the
latest one being Toulouse's 21 year old French International, Moussa Sissoku. In an interview, his
agent Bacary Sanogo revealed that while Lyon are the current leaders of the pack in the hunt for
the big lad, he is [.
Short of the Premier League changing its mind and awarding Arsenal the league title for plucky
against-all-likelihood endeavour, the one thing that would have kicked the summer off in a
marvellous and positive fashion would have been some early incomings.
Wishful thinking, it seems, seeing that a) in signing terms it's early doors (whatever early
doors are) and b) the futures of two very important players are obfuscated if, indeed, obfuscated
is the word I'm looking for.
Newcastle United midfielder, Joey Barton has been tweeting again, writing that he was "truly
honoured" to be voted 'Player of the Year' by Newcastle United fans. While he was voted as player
of the year on this blog, polling 515 out of 1634 votes (32%), there is a small chance that he may
have been [.
Negotiations begin between Newcastle United and Liverpool over Enrique and the Barton situation is
explained further. Allegedly negotiations have begun with Liverpool for their acquisition of Jose
Enrique. Although it seems they haven't begun very well. Newcastle have placed a £15m price tag on
the player and Liverpool's initial offer was only £4m, so there's [.
Newcastle United manager, Alan Pardew has been giving an insight into the difficulties he faces
keeping players at a club as football agents become an ever bigger part of the game. Speaking in an
interview with the BBC's "Late Kick Off", Pardew bemoaned the role of agents, and how they can
destabilise players right through [.
