Running true to form.

Let's hope this one proves to be as normally reliable as most normally reliable sources normally are.

I hear that Duncan Ferguson is looking to make a comeback.

[Max Headroom]

Good player but no thanks

[jarv]

Hasn't he turned into a philosopher these days. The new Barton, the thinking man. On day.s like those at manu (cup game), wigan at home, I would say yes

[ron]

Barton?  if 079.gif......but not a bad wind-up just the same.

[Mr K.Dilkington]

Nein.

[The Rock]

Based on his reputation I'd have to say no.

But, based on his footballing ability, I'd have to admit it would a big NO as well.

[Snibbo]

"No, no and thrice times NO"

MAF would veto it. Like he did a few years back with that striker that was charged with rape

[Fulhampete]

Barton the philosopher is a bit like Tony Adams trying to convince everyone he wasn't as stupid as everyone knew he was. Stupidity is judged more on a persons action than his words. It as no use picking up a book for the first time in his life and claiming 'I am now an intellectual'. Trying to improve oneself is highly commendable but is not achieved without commitment and sincerity. These are hardly what I see in Barton.

He vetoed the Marlon King deal due to his 'previous' - no way would MAF allow him near us IMHO.

Which I think is a great thing for the club. To have an owner with class, and not willing to compromise his principles to win.

When do we get to name the new stand after him?

I'm surprised at the number of people on this thread claiming that Barton is a good footballer. I think he WAS a good player but, from what I saw of his performances for QPR last season, and their fans opinion of him, I wouldn't even give him a space on our bench. So not even worth discussing his character.

[FFC1987]

I have from a reliable source that this is nonsense.

Kind of player I would write to the club about and boo from the start.

[fulhaman]

No Way. I hate this guy with a passion. And would not celebrate if he scored as he is a thug.

[cebu]

I'd have Michael Brown back rather than Barton.

P.S. I don't want Michael Brown ever again ...

To be fair to him I thought he played quite well last night for OM. Still would not have him anywhere near our club.

Barton is a scumbag and has no place in football let alone at Fulham  :028:
