The Barton issue: it seems bizarre to suspend a player for four weeks after an incident, more so to extend that by a further week immediately before a clear-the-air meeting, but it’s not.
This has got nothing to do with the player. Whatever he did with a team-mate in the aftermath of our 5-1 win a month ago has nothing to do with his continuing suspension. Nor is the player’s subsequent charge for gambling on football.
I’m pretty sure it’s not even about money, or the player’s lack of ability. This is about the manager and his board. Who authorised his signing in the summer and on what basis was he employed? Warburton has played his hand by passing the issue up to his board. The board can try to impose the player on the manager, again, or they can find the money to make the problem go away.
Or maybe the manager will go instead.

There’s more to it than meets the eye.

Thank you.

The ole Sevco sausages
Right bare with me here as this could be a stroke of genius.
We at David Cox Butchers, Main St Bridgeton are going to try this whacky way to raise some more money for the club through the method below.
All money raised will go to ticket sales for a local BB to get along to Ibrox and watch The Rangers.
Step One.
Assistant weighs up one slice of square sausage.
Step Two.
Assistant informs punter of price of aforementioned sausage.
Step Three.
Cistomer donates the price
All money raised will go to ticket sales for a local BB to get along to Ibrox and watch The Rangers.
Step Four.
Tickets bought for local kids to go watch The Rangers.
Seems great idea to me
Started this morning and have had a few hits already. Ill keep this thread updated as we go but its a bit of fun and every penny to the club counts
Watching Alba just now and Linfield are making QOS look like Barca.
The ole Butcher’s Apron will get messy there…
I like Joey.
Show liquidation the red card.
The huns still working on ‘constructive dismissal’ i see….
Gordon Strachan and his team selection are nothing but bizarre or crooked. Back to the sixties…. Leigh Griffith cooling his his heels on the bench and we have the singer from Coldplay up front. Wee Jamie Forrest, currently keeping 12M super kid Patrick Roberts on the bench is keeping Leigh company. You couldn’t make it it up. Well played Gordo. Another soup taker. Nae wonder we don’t qualify for Nowt.
Now I have no basis of fact for this but…..
Wee Joey likes Celtic.
He’s rejected by Celtic.
Has a wee temper tantrum.
Signs for Sevco.
Plays his 1st game.
Listens to their supports sectarian bile.
Gets pumped 5-1
Let’s the manager know in no uncertain terms he’s a buffoon and he hates the place.
Suspended
The rest as they say is history

Joey Barton suspendu une semaine de plus par les Sevco.
Attention any tree lovers!
I have two mountain ash/rowan trees in large pots that have grown to big for my garden (one’s about 10′, one about 8′). I’m looking for a new home for them, no cash to change hands, but you would have to arrange to pick them up yourself. I’m in south-side East Kilbride.
If anyone is interested drop me an email at emeraldbee67@gmail.com

Hope it works out better than a previous promotion from a few years back.

Paul67:
Or perhaps both the Manager and Joey will go. Do you remember the 70s T.V. Programme called Budgie, what brought it to my mind was I used to have a Budgie called Joey! Joey was always getting on the wrong side of legality, the similarities of our Joey and Budgie are striking. Maybe we should refer to our Joey as Budgie and get this played by one Adam Faith…faith, you couldn’t make it up…:)
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!
Goooood afternoon CQN,
Back online :-)
Only 1 faller in LMS8 ?
Thought for today, have Police Scotland released a photo yet of “The Rangers” official that assaulted a young Hibs fan as he run through “The Rangers” team technical area at the end of the recent Scottish cup final ????
Use the loaf, Lennybhoy.
I know this is a long shot but…anybody know where I could get my hands on a couple of mountain ash/rowan trees as i’m looking to do up my garden?Preferably they’d be about 8′-10′.I’m able to pick up anywhere within a 33 mile (approx.) radius of Greenock.
EMERALDBEE…sorry mate,couldn’t resist. ;)))

I’m afraid I’m having difficulty getting my head round how sevco can legally extend Barton”s suspension period without a reason (some additional transgression occurring)….that’s like someone ending a jail sentence and being told at the main gate of the prison … “where are you going … !!?? … get back in there, we’ve added a week to your sentence …!!!!” …… ridiculous !!
I really don’t want to see the new club sack their manager! Respectfully he did a great job for a non-football man and also at a brand new club last season.
He is doing more to destroy them now though than the corrupt board can! Leave him alone. Let him take them all the way to the wall. Watch the SFA scramble to help!
so,
there is a que of creditors awaiting payment over at badgers bum mansions

There could be any number of reasons they have extended or imposed a new suspension, ranging from the betting charge; his discussions about his initial ban on national radio; or some other scenario we don’t know anything about.
The difficulty for them is that he is costing them £20K a week that they can ill-afford. That will run close to £2M if they want to bump him. Watch out for litigation involving deidco v nutjob with the PFA and their lawyers supporting Barton.
Intriguing times!

*As TTT later said John Jack real name Jonas Kaduskeviechi another former player who combined his fitba with working down the pits, He was also in the first Celtic team to lift the League Cup the year before “hampden in the sun”.
Sir Bob is on record as crediting him in playing an important role with helping big Jock tae coach and train the reserves.
EMERALDBEE,
Will any other tree’s be for sale at your branch office ?
Maybe you should have twigged that a cqnr would have a bit of fun with your kind offer ?
