Big Beard on SSN

[qpr]

Lower League English Clubs also have very tight wage structures and any deal would have meant we would have been picking up a lot of his wages. Beard says he's off our wage bill and there is simply no reason to disbelieve that so it's great business. Add to that the fact Barton's profile will be higher playing in Ligue 1 than anywhere below the PL in England and it makes it far more feasible for him to get a decent move after this deal comes to an end.

Yep, I also heard Joey took a wage cut so good for him.

I think this move is great for Joey & will be a better person & player for it
