We read with astonishment the tirade of Joey Barton last night on that Twitter account of his when Didi Hamann – the former Newcastle central midfielder Kenny Dalglish signed in 1998 – tried to have a logical discussion with Joey.
Didi Hamann while at Newcastle
That was Didi’s first mistake because Joey Barton is not built to have any logical discussions with anybody, and flies off the handle at the smallest criticism, and he came storming back with personal and immature insults to Didi.
The Twitter discussion is out on the web for you to see, I’m not putting it on this site, and it started off by Didi telling Barton that he shouldn’t be commenting on ongoing transfers on his Twitter account, and Joey got nasty very quickly.
It seems like the German was trying to have a logical discussion with Joey – no chance.
If Joey Barton is not bringing the game of football into disrepute then I don’t know what it means to bring the game into disrepute. And who was the person that told Joey that his job was to publicize the transfer dealings of clubs like Newcastle?
It hardly helped Newcastle keep things quiet until they could get the deal done – did it.
The sooner the FA or FIFA get some control over Joey Barton, the better it will be for football.
We see that Joey has now apologized to Didi, but that Hamann is considering legal action and could sue Joey for the personal insults he made last night.
Didi should go ahead with that – and maybe it will teach Barton a lesson – maybe.
For the record Did played 31 times with 5 goals for Newcastle in the 1998-1999 season and cost us £5.5M from Bayern Munich, before he was signed by Liverpool for £8M in the summer of 1999.

Cabaye and Arfa “You Coming here?”
Remy “No thanks”
Cabaye “Why?”
Remy ” QPR are offering me 80k a week”
Arfa “What thats double what i get!!!!”
Debuchy ” Seriously??I got bumped I only get 10k a week!!!”

22 No Plain Saylor // Jan 15, 2013 at 5:57 PM
Frankly nobody cares what Joey Barton says or who’s panties he twisted Ed. We should be reading and talking about what the club do now having missed out on Remy. Possible targets, news on Colo? Barton was always and will alkways be a t1t. Its not news.
23 santonthenewmaldini // Jan 15, 2013 at 5:58 PM
@Ibiza
That is true but you cant tell me that our players are not thinking “80k a week??” playing against Reading in another relegation battle for 40k a week watching the ball sail over their heads for the whole game
24 northernirishtoon // Jan 15, 2013 at 5:58 PM
Really gutted about these turn of events but I do really think we may have dodged a bullet. Don’t know much about remy but there are really conflicting reports online about him. The question is where do we go from here?
I really think our inability to secure our targets in the summer, hence the league position we are in now, are really why we are in this position now.
If we were sitting in 6th or 7th where we should be, then I seriously don’t believe the likes of remy would be turning us down even with the amount if money being rumoured for salaries
This is unfortunately a knock on effect for our failings as a progressive club
25 AshtreeKid // Jan 15, 2013 at 5:58 PM
spreadthetoon – I think its because they weren’t sure one way or the other yet, think they were probably still talking to his agent trying to convince him that Newcastle was a better option for him

It’s gone very quiet about Remy but anything that is happening certainly doesn’t involve us. Let’s hope the club have moved on to other targets. We do have other targets don’t we Derek? Surely one of them has to be a good CB and another a forward/winger? Derek are you paying attention or have you been dipping into the wine with Ash again? Why spoil a good transfer window with unpleasant talk of failed transfers Ash/Llam when you can just get sozzled together.
30 nick_9 // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:01 PM

33 Novocastrian66 // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:01 PM
Ibizatoon – Back By Popular Demand; from previous thread. I’ve given that some thought. The maximum limit would be based on the average income of the respective league. Some leagues are bigger and generate more money they would still have the best players and higher earners. It would prevent ridiculous fees and extravagant pay deals. It would probably stop clubs buying players they do not need for example Sinclair at Man City.
It may even result in cheaper tickets, I doubt though.

39 two steps forward one step back // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:03 PM
Proud – Well I for one don’t blame you for being wrong – shit happens and you only passed on what you heard. There’s no accounting for the depths floppychops will dredge.
We MUST have one or two CBs (colo dependent) and one or two forwards
I’d try for Charlie Austin and PEA (or equivalent) up front and we need two quality CBs- preferably Alderweild quality.
Sissokho would be a luxury extra but I can’t see him coming to Toon.
I still feel raw about the Remy episode but think we may well have had a narrow escape.
I rated Ruiz but he’s not adapted that well and of course got injured. Glad we missed him too.
I don’t want us to breach our wages cap which I think is sensible but I still blame Robin for his abysmal negotiating. If we don’t get the players we need ‘over the line’ he needs to go right away – and then AP at the end of the season if he doesn’t turn it round. If he does and gets the support he needs from Batman then let’s see him playing the 4-3-3- passing game we want to see all the time.
40 No Plain Saylor // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:03 PM
And five stories in the last day have said, qpr, 18000 fans blah blah silly money, what do they offer. Now I firmly believe newcastle are a more attractive prospect to any player than qpr. But how did we feel when fergie called us a wee club? It ain’t nice. So stop it. Plus at least Tony Fernandes is showing ambition, Redknapp is a better manager than Pardew, Fernandes and co. fund back their manager in the transfer windows, they at least have the ambition to get out of this hole they are in.. Obviously the business model they have is unsustainable and will inevitably end in bankrupcy and relegation and a mass exodus of players, staff and coaches.. But they pushd harder for the player than we did, move on. Remy is only a d1ck anyway, imagine not showing up in newcastle, no notice of doing it, just leaving nufc to hear it from barton and the media, move on.

42 ash1001 // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:06 PM
Halfway through the ‘WINDOW’ and we have not made a lot of progress, + press stories of unrest, or is it Droopy Chops Redknapp feeding them topics about how some Newcastle players would prefer to be elsewhere. Whatever it is, it’s not doing us any good, the only way to combat it is by making a couple of top notch signings, not someone else’s cast-off’s, will it happen – have my doubts.
43 Mister Tuff // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:06 PM
proud – whilst the deal looked a cert from all angles -including some mutterings from the club, players welcoming him etc – the information ended up being duff. The dangers of being “definite” about information which goes wrong will now be played out -initially you queried what an ITK was and I thought oh no, a lamb to the slaughter.
The world of a blog beating/slagging off now awaits you . Good luck.

Aye, the update came 45 minutes ago.
Completed medical.
And is due to train in the morning with QPR.
Marseille and QPR are just finalising the deal. QPR play tnite i think, he will more than lightly be unveiled then mate
49 mag in m@k3mland // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:08 PM
well, my first post after MANY hours of following this blog. i can only hope we can all re unite as mag fans after this whole debacle. PROUD, i dont know you but i can only hope people have calmed down from their red mist sessions and put their pitch forks down today. i would like to think that some good news will come by the end of next week, i, like many others feel like we have dodged a bullet with remy, i would prefer to see someone who has been recently proven in the first time and can remain fit long enough to score a few. i really cant name names as we will soon be linked with the whole world again
50 Hatem's better than Messi // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:08 PM
Remy hasn’t exactly been banging them in for a while.
Tough to come to a new league too.
Perhaps he’ll flop and we can buy him in the summer …
Perhaps he’ll fail his medical and we can give him the finger?
Joey’s entitled to enjoy social-networks and he’s allowed to express his opinions.
Personally I don’t think it does him any favours.
Perhaps Colo needs to start “tweeting” about the club’s lack of ambition if he has any hopes of a free transfer.
51 thepict // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:09 PM
Why should Newcastle advertise which players we are after? Money is the players god and quite frankly, I’m fed up of mercenary footballers certainly seen plenty of these at our great club. The only clubs that cat can win the EPL are Manure Citeh and Chelski. The minute the the moneymen get fed up of their ‘toys’ the clubs will fold.
52 Beattie25 // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:09 PM
It’s gone quiet…a little too quiet…nothing coming out of the club at all regarding anything…panic slowly creeping in…maybe the have slipped into a time vortex and are seeing how the season pans out without investment…Pardew is homeless…Ashley bankrupt…Del Boy selling his ass for money…QPR top of the league…Sir Harry Redknapp the new manager of Nike Manchester Blues…Newcastle United dead thanks to the worst run of form ever and conference status…St James Park sold to Sunderland…beattie25 prime minister with the slogan ‘i told you so’…proudtobeageordie no longer proud…

How do we seem to miss out on target after target? I know qpr offered stupid wages to remy/hoillet and de jong preferred Germany over England but this is happening too often, it takes us best part of a year to tie a deal up sometimes! It’s true that if big money is a players motivation then you’re better off without them but surely someone tries sell the club to them, tries to make the deal appeal to them? We seem to just advertise a players availibility and then watch them walk to another club
54 two steps forward one step back // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:10 PM

Bottom line is we are likely to go down and lose our top players unless we get the 3-4 players over the line in the next two weeks.
Value of the Toon would plummet then. Maybe Batman needs a tax write off
55 Black and White with an army lol // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:10 PM
you kno what lads i personally think all of our top lads are going and soon and the cockney mafia knows it,
first, bullshit about the summer saying we had no money but we made a shit loads of profit compare to other teams.
second, players in but then suddenly leave to go to another shit club with no future at all.
third, players want to leave suddenly for the likes of colo, HBA,
fourth, top teams are going for our young lads like santon, krull
something smells fishy here within to mafia dogs and i for one dont like the sound of things thats going on.
56 Munster Mag // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:10 PM
I think we have to be mindful that our system is not without plenty of flaws. We wanted Ruiz, mariappa – both v average – in fact we panicked to get Ruiz, and he said so himself. Obertan is a poor use of 3mill , and others we have signed are not going to make it – Gosling, possibly Amalfitano , maybe Marveaux ( though we rate him ) , the half moroccan guy who was subbed v Brighton etc etc
57 gorgonzola ( former Pecorino former to gorgonzola) // Jan 15, 2013 at 6:11 PM
We should bid for more targets tonight…I feel we need signing in the next 24-48hrs…
I cant see is completing 3-4 signings as Pardew calls for more playerS coming in if we havent done so yet…
no?

The frenzy that has gone on here over the last few days has been drawn from us all wanting the same thing, a new striker, I’m sure Barton caused most of this as he let it be known he was meant to be coming here and he has also ended up with egg on his stupid face, until someone is there with the strip on believe nowt lads, we’re all passionate fane who are desperate for things to turn, thing would have been an awful lot different if we were not in the league position we are in, remy wouldnt have been good enough for us last year!
