Demba Ba was the reason you guys got into Europe last season, Demba Ba is the reason you guys aren't staring relegation in the face right now. Doing what he did for you guys he deserved a pay day. Saying he turned his back on the club is the most idiotic thing you can say. How is scoring 13 goals this season turning his back on the club? You took a chance on him? He signed on a FREE TRANSFER. You took no chances on him just with wages. It's not like you spent 50m on him to only score a fractional amount of goals.

Really..Demba Ba was the reason we got into europe last season? REALLY?? how many goals did he score after christmas?
Anyone who knows anything about football knows its a team sport, an no one player can face teams on his own...
last season we had many great performers..Ba, Cisse, Cabaye, Colo, Krul, Jonas, Ben Arfa..etc. To say one player got us in europe is ludicrous lol.
Yes we took a chance on him, as in lots of PL clubs looked at him..but refused to give him a chance because of career long knee problems...we gave him that chance!
An as for scoring 13 goals this season...that of course isnt turning his back on us, its what he done AFTER scoring the goals.
Im not against players wanting to improve their careers for trophies...and Chelsea is def a step up, but their is a thing called leaving clubs "in the lurch" or "jumping ship".
How are fans suppose to react to this? like i dont exactly see gunners fans "greeting" players like Nasri, Adebayor and Cashley back to the emirates :)

I didnt really mean what i said about Demba's career from this point...after all i did really like him.

No.... West Ham gave him that chance.

i think you'll find mate, west ham were in championship the season we signed him ;)
sure, they signed him the season before (pay as you play)...but we were the only option he had to get back to PL. Even Moyes pulled out of talks, when everton badly needed a front man!
 
^ So West Ham gave him the first chance to play in Premier League.
 
why are so many still on about BA leaving the club, its been 2 months already since he left, and we have been a better team.

for you you fools that say we should't let BA go well you don't know your football better still don't know Newcastle, so what if he scored 13 goals this season he only scored them from Pardew's hoofball tactics.

look at us now with the new signings and keeping the ball on the ground and playing real football and all this because BA left, face it BA left for money end off, and im glad he left because if he had stayed we would be in QPR position now.

FACT. lets see if any 1 can prove me wrong.
 
Off to the game tomorrow (first league game I've been to) and sat in the Gallowgate end. Can't wait! Should win as long as the trip to Russia was too fatiguing
 
Good result for the team, would have felt robbed if we hadn't got the 3 points. All Stoke did was hoof it long, as usual, and we just dealt with it easily. Penalty was against the run of play really but great Cabaye FK and good Cisse finish at the death (I initially thought it was offside!). Didn't realise that Stoke players like to dive so much :S
Anyway bring on Anji!
 
I'm gutted with the Hastley's decisions today. However we were second best in every department. well done Martinez, tactics spot on!
 
So, since attempting to remove someone's kneecaps isn't worthy of a ban nowadays - do you have to actively try and decapitate someone, or is that fine as long as "an official didn't see the full extent"?

'If it was any other club or player, you can bet your life he would have been sent off."

"I don't care what the FA say about the matter being dealt with at the time by us getting a free-kick. Justice isn't being served here."

"The FA will be delighted they can hide behind their rules and let Rooney off, as they are frightened of taking sanctions against United"

- One Dave Whelan after the Rooney elbow on McCarthy. Changed his tune quite a bit in two years.
