There is no doubting Joey Barton's ability, but it is his character that gives rise to doubts. More than once has Mark Warburton said he will only sign players that fit into the dressing room and add value to the squad and Club. Any disruptive and/or prima donna characters are not wanted and will not be recruited.
What on Earth are you talking about, Larry? Do you think he was invited up to Glasgow, given a tour of Ibrox and Auchenhowie and involved in contract talks without the manager's knowledge?
Certainly not without the Manager's knowledge, Widye. As I said in the 'Let's be Frank' thread, I trust Mark Warburton's judgement in this matter.
20/05/2016 : Joey Barton is a controversial person, not on account of his undoubted ability as a footballer, but due to his character. Mark Warburton has said many times that Rangers will not recruit any player that would be a disruptive influence, so I trust MW's judgement of JB is based on more than that which is known in the public domain.

Have this here too, from the 'Transfers' thread. 24/05/2016 : He has not signed for the money. Welcome to Rangers, Mr Barton, I hope everything works out well. Rangers FC - Gers Sign Joey Barton
