Guys a fud regardless, but so was MW in hindsight. Never wanted Barton in the first place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if we will ever find out what really happened but from what I've read Barton seemed to criticise Warburton over training methods and Warburton didn't like that. If only the whole team had criticised him! Lol I think he was treated unfairly tbh and would like to have seen him play more. I think he would've done well. He played 5 games for us without a pre season. Which is the clubs fault for allowing him to join late. Look at the criticism Hill got after 5 games and now he's one of our best 3 players of the season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If match-fixing is their concern, then you'd understand it to an extent, but wow, 18 months is a little excessive. Yup. From an organisation that laps up the Ladbrokes dosh. It's the hypocrisy that burns. http://www.thefa.com/news/2016/Jun/02/ladbrokes-strike-deal-with-the-fa-030616 Also, pretty sure Barton would have made most bets while playing in the SkyBet Championship, the Ladbrokes SPFL and the William Hill Scottish Cup.

I take your point & he was right to call out Warburton, but just imagine this hitting the fan & him still being with us!!!!

plymouthranger 3,872 Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Had he been betting on games he wasn't involved in, it would be harsh punishment. But a professional footballer who is paid 10s of thousands a week, betting on matches he is actively involved in, is a sackable offence. You see investment bankers getting threatened with the jail for manipulating the stock market, and this is comparable. Fuck him Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSM 20,892 Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Surely if he was still with us we could have ripped up his contract and not paid him a penny? If so, then I'd say we were unlucky, not dodged a bullet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
