Barton Hits Out On Twitter

Newcastle United midfielder Joey Barton says he has not been offered a new contract with the club because they want a younger and cheaper option.

It was revealed that Barton would not be offered an extension to his contract earlier this week and he finally broke his silence on his twitter account.

"Finished playing golf, 72 not bad. Came in to questions about joining Everton??? I don't want to leave Newcastle but thanks anyways........'' Barton wrote. "I cant sign a contract if am not offered one?''

"I will tell all when the time is right, basically they want a younger, better, cheaper player............cant blame (owner Mike Ashley) and (managing director Derek Llambias) can you?.

".......slight problem is, they dont want to spend any money or pay any wages. Its genius really ha ha.

"I am an employee so have to be careful here. Everyone knows i'd love to stay, i get on with (manager Alan Pardew) fine and are dressing room is 1st class..

"if am not offered a new contract, my hands are tied. I will continue to do everything in my power to bring a trophy to St James next season."
