Absolutely incredible that Barton should be suggesting that anyone (especially young people following him on twitter) should pay any attention to what that animal has to say.

A new low for him, and the club that seems to support him so strongly.

If that were Pearson suggesting that, I'd want him sacked

I am going to guess that with this and the recent signing they made, this is all a big ploy to see how far they can go before Her Game Too have a reaction.

To be fair to the Fewers over on their message board, most of them are bewildered by this latest set of posts by Barton and aren't remotely approving of the noise he is spouting. 

[bcfc01]

Not wise to advertise that he wears a Rolex World Traveller GMT worth northwards of 50k, there are people out there who will happily relieve him of it as Amir Khan found out when losing his 70k watch at gun point. Most serious people buy those watches as an investment, not to flash it around.

.Also, a bit crass to boast about 20m and show the watch during a cost of living crisis.

Bloke is socially bereft and as thick as a pea souper.

It is just soooooo tempting to get him on a wind up

It’s a modified GMT Master.

Its like buying a classic car and thinking “this work of art isn’t gaudy enough for me, I need to pimp this up” before taking it somewhere to be ruined at great expense.

No retail price afaik.

Does anyone think he’s trying to get sacked?

Obviously he’s a massive narcissist but even by his standards this is weird behaviour.

In character for him to do the “I’m considerably richer than you” schtick but the Tucker Carlson, Andrew Tate business is properly sinister.

Asking people to pay him on Twitter for exclusive insights into the football world too - will his club be happy about this? Bit of a conflict of interests if he reveals what is going on inside the tents?

”Tucker Carlson jetted off to Romania to join Andrew Tate for a sit-down chat at his home on the outskirts of Bucharest, where the influencer remains under house arrest. Last month, the 36-year-old king of toxic masculinity was charged with rape, human trafficking and forming a criminal gang to exploit women.”

Andrew Tate is a f****** p**** but what sort of publication uses this sort of language?

It certainly looks that way, a number of Rovers fans have said the same. Perhaps he realises he won’t be able to take rag ass rovers any further, but doesn’t want to quit and lose out on a pay off.

Wallys IWC wasn’t particularly impressive for the 6th richest owner of any club on the Planet.

As for Joeys skeleton dial Rolex, probably cost a fortune but looks cheap. Why mess with a perfectly good GMT Master?

I really think he is too. 
 

Said before, but he’s clearly only in management for himself, and Rovers are gonna be so over budget this year, he’s obviously getting bored knowing it’s not helping his career being with them, so probably wants to make them give it a good go and then jump ship next season when it doesn’t work

Dragging their name further through the mud, women beaters, sexist pigs, conspiracy theories, promoting his own ‘business’ whilst  ‘committed’ Gas manager, sending their wage bill sky high, signing players with 0 resale value, all whilst keeping Rovers in the bottom 3rd of the league, please don’t sack him!

Contracted until 2026 I was shocked to just find out! Looking forward to the winter where Rovers are in the bottom half, yet again, will their fans turn on JB and pressure the owner for JB's head?! How loyal will they be after yet another underwhelming season...

It's known as the enlightenment fallacy, the belief that people will draw logical conclusions based on facts. To a greater or lesser extent people often don't if it conflicts with what they want to believe.
