You dont have to pay though do you ? Did you never buy an evening post to read a rovers related article ? Or pay a licence fee to watch / listen to interviews on the tv and radio. People paid in the past to hear the latest news.
<cough, prepare Peter Kay voice>
Eeee, remember Club Call? What were all that about then, eh??
I still ring it for the latest news |

I've never followed Barton on twitter and never will....It's his own account and although he may comment about Bristol Rovers it isn't official.
There are numerous official Bristol Rovers account....Bristol Rovers, Bristol Rovers Live, Bristol Rovers Academy, Bristol Rovers WFC
Even if he does make an announcement first with the speed of social media it will be a matter of seconds before non-subscribers to his account will hear about it
I think I can wait a few seconds.....

He has played senior football in France last season so hopefully won't be as inexperienced as Quansah and a much better option....couldn't be worse! |

You obviously don't understand why has gone to a subscription service and has commented without any facts. The majority of the money he makes from it will be going to charity and he has done it because of all the crap that gets written on every tweet he sends out, it's a but tedious reading the same pathetic comments everytime. It's not just to feed people info about Rovers. Then, if that is the case, why keep his first account ? Why shouldn't he? What is the harm of what he is doing. You subscribe if you need to know 5 minutes before anyone else that we might be signing a player but you won't get the players name. You are really making something out of this that isn't there but I'm not surprised actually I am surprised it took you this long to get involved with some Barton bashing. |

And to a few he can do no right! Maybe. For me, he can - and has - done right when he's kept his head down and focused on the job. It's clear he has potential. The problem is that he constantly wants to wind up others , loves to be controversial and the centre of attention and constantly tells us all how he's too good for L1 and he's getting bored of it now blah blah blah. He's an average L1 manager. Nothing more. I'm yet to see any proof he'll ever manage in the top League and to be honest, if things end badly with us - and I wouldn't be remotely surprised if it all ends in tears - I'm not at all convinced he'll even manage in the championship. I can see him packing it all in, saying he's bored of it all, becoming the Piers Morgan of 5 Live and all because in reality no-one else was daft enough to let this loose cannon manage their business. I certainly agree with your first sentence and some of the rest, i really am only interested in the football stuff and in that respect i agree, the jury is out and it could go either way, big season ahead for JB, I do not expect promotion but do expect a solid top 10 finish leading to a real go the next season, as i don't use social media the twitter stuff bothers me not and you could be right in as much he may enjoy winding folk up, in that respect he certainly succeeds! not sure about him getting bored , i like to think that he really cares about Rovers and is determined to improve our lot while at the same time knocking our neighbours off their perch, like many managers he sometimes says and does the wrong thing and has spats with officials, i view his relationship with Wael as a positive for Rovers and i hope JB is able to repay the faith and trust that Wael has shown towards him. In an ideal world i wish JB would come off the likes of Twitter as some folk will always find fault with what he says, but not in his nature to give in ! up the Rovers!! |

Really Les ? This time, you surprise me. Not a bad thing though, being surprised by you i mean The Python team specialised on creating satire over human behaviour. If that helps put my comment into perspective KP Indeed it does, thank you |

Did note he scored 7 goals in the B league. Whilst he's been signed as a defender a set piece box threat would help. I imagine he's backup. With 1 more CB to come in, hopefully Taylor. |

It makes his other account redundant, at least try to reply with a semblance of sense in a riposte. I never said a word about him but about the account, your reply speaks more of your thought process than being relevant , or true |

And re the Barton bashing I only ever see you on here to have a dig about JB, the ground,the club,Wael shall I go on. And yes I expect the reply of where have i said that and prove it as that's what I usually get. Don't talk to me about my thought process you have absolutely no idea who I am and what I think. Personally I think you just come over here to be a WUM. |

Personally I think you just come over here to be a WUM. It isn’t a separate account. It’s his normal account, but you need to pay a fiver a month to get the additional content. Presumably when he posts he can flag it as a public post or a private one.  |

I thought the Mbappe tweet was just a wind up, do you think it might not be? Just fact checked this. Looks like a spellcheck/voice recognition error. New Rovers run out tune is Hanson - MMMBop not Mbappe |

Just a bit of an attention seeker is Barton, pretty good at it too!
