Newcastle United's decision to allow Joey Barton to leave the club on a free transfer has alerted a host of top Premier League clubs.

Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham are said to be among the sides lining up talks with the fiery midfielder.

Sports betting pundits note how Barton still has a year remaining on his £60,000 per week contract, although the Newcastle board are looking for ways to reduce their hefty wage bill.

By Chris Wright

Coming about a week after Jose Enrique accused owner Mike Ashley and managing director Derek Llambias of a lack of balls and lying about a new contract offer, Joey Barton was tweeted his way into a transfer-listing at Newcastle.

More accurately, Barton has been made available on a free transfer, with the Toon board simply running out of patience with his incessant need to tweet every single gripe he has with the club's hierarchy over a summer of botched transfers and contract re-negotiations.

Newcastle United's game against Kansas City got off to a decent start last night, and was by all accounts a good 45 minutes of football. The second-half though was a bit of a snooze-fest with the Toon only having a Danny Simpson shot at goal for anything worth remembering.

The main talking point though was the injury to Hatem Ben Arfa.

While Jeremy is our resident NUFC supporter, he is out of pocket this week so I'm going to take over with my thoughts on the transfer of Demba Ba from WHU to St. James' Park. Taken as a move by itself, there is little to do other than like it a lot. NUFC is desperate for strikers and Ba was very effective over the second half of last season at Upton Park.

This time of the year often brings exciting matches as clubs play for championships and continental tournament spots. There's not a lot of that going on this weekend as most of the bigger leagues in Europe have already either crowned a champion or are damned close to doing so. One notable exception to this is the Netherlands where the Eredivisie where Sunday's battle between Ajax and Twente in Amsterdam will determine the league's title.

Newcastle United is the third Premier League club to announce that they'll be playing a friendly in the United States this summer (following Manchester United and Everton),

Newcastle have announced that they will conduct pre-season training at the Sporting Club Training Center from July 17 through July 19 before playing the MLS club on July 20.

John Carver and Cheick Tiote both committed their long term future to Newcastle United as they both signed contracts today. Tiote, who Newcastle signed from FC Twente last summer has been a revelation in midfield alongside Kevin Nolan. Tiote goes from an £8,000 p/week deal to a £50,000 p/week deal according to the Sun (we all know how reliable they are).

Hello, good evening and welcome to the NUFC 'Blog's "match banter" for the rescheduled game against Birmingham City at St Andrews.

If you scour the Arsenal blogosphere on a daily basis the name Critic will need no introduction. He's a passionate Desi Gooner like yours truly and has contributed the following piece. I hope you will find it a nice change from my usual analytical ramblings.

It has been a crazy transfer month, with even crazier rumors.

Andy Who? Focus on Pardew and NUFC!

Monday was a bad day for the Geordies, it was like finding out the girl you're deeply in love with has ran away into the arms of another man and never truly loved you anyway. It would be impossible to sum up a collective reaction of the Toon Army to the news, as people seemed more confused (not unusual for Newcastle fans under Ashley) than anything else.

It's official. Newcastle United have accepted a bid from Liverpool for Andy Carroll with the fee believed to be about £35 million with add-ons. This is devastating news for Newcastle fans, just after the Newcastle number 9 confessed his love for the club and that he wanted to stay.

The events leading up to the transfer are shrouded in mystery though.

Danny Guthrie gets chance against Tottenham - NUFC Latest News - Newcastle United - ChronicleLive ALAN PARDEW will hand Danny Guthrie the chance to revive his season against Spurs at St James' Park on Saturday. However, Andy Carroll and Steven Taylor are rated "extremely doubtful" with thigh and hamstring problems.
