Aye I'd take most of what Sullivan says with a mountain of salt.

It's not salt, its cocaine!

Aye well the £70k came from one ITK that I dont know as he posts on a different forum but apparently has got a good track record as far as incoming transfers to Everton.

This Sheedy guy says that Ba asked us to meet the Toons demands and would join if we did... I trust him.  I'm not surprised no-one on here does as its not what you'd want to hear about a new signing... especially when there is such a low opinion of the club he apparently would rather have joined (allegedly)

I could still see Ashley looking at a free transfer and £70k a week being better than £10m and £50k a week for an alternative player, just my opinion tho.  He was on £50k at West Ham and it would be extremely rare for a player to leave on a free and move to another club for less money... would be surprised by that massively, especially if there's more than one team bidding for his signiture.

Maybe the £70k a week is BS?  Who knows... could be less, but even if it is i'd expect it to be somewhere in between 50-70k.

Haha nah I think me and you should stick to the photography chat and leave football politics alone  

why would you everton ITK know about the waged we offer though? i'm not doubting he's well connected with all things everton. it's just common knowledge now because of things the club have said and the fact that senior pros aren't getting improved contracts that we don't offer those wages anymore. so in the case of ba, that's not why you lot lost out to him. sorry

Because apparently Ba came back to us and said you'd offered it, and would join us if we offered the same.

Maybe he was trying to pull a fast one and play the two teams off against each other if that's not the wage you offered?

£70,000 a week pmsl

"Newcastle to offer Ba a four year deal increasing his £35,000 per week salary to £50,000 a week while removing the clause from his contract."

70k   I don't know why you and all Everton fans didn't just accept his reasons for joining us over you.  Unless you're an Everton fan there's not one logical reason as to why you would choose them over us.  70k

'As stated I am glad we didnt get him as think we dodged a bullet'

I know it's not really fair as no one could have anticipated how well he's done, still makes me chuckle. In fact if he'd gone there I'd imagine they'd probably be above us right now.

If ye does have a buy out clause and leaves Carroll will be back IMO.

[Happy Face]

Can we change the title of this thread or let it slide and talk about him in general terms in another "Demba Ba" thread?

I keep getting excited.

[Tom]

I'll change it.

[CabayeAye]

Just taken Ba out of my fantasy football team and replaced him with Rooney.  He's been poor recently, and is third fiddle to Cisse and Ben Arfa now.

Not saying he isn't good or anything though!

[Kitman]

now he's nailed on to score against Liverpool

Hope so, I dont think he has been poor lately, he has had a hand in a few of Cisses goals, directly and indirectly through his movement and has also been close to scoring himself.

Im not alarmed about his form at all.

not in exchange for Ameobi and Best ?

[jonasjuice]

2011/12 league stats:

Ameobi - 21 apps, 2 goals

Best - 18 apps, 4 goals

Carroll 25 apps, 3 goals

Not a lot in it tbh

Ba hasn't been poor at all. He was all over the pitch against Norwich and caused them all sort of problems in the first half. Similarly in the game at West Brom. It's not all about scoring goals.

Demba Ba ‏ @dembabafoot
What a great season we had. I'll miss sjp and the atmosphere for few weeks. Cant wait to step back on the pitch and feel the noise again...

*Cynical hat on*

He's looking forward to playing at SJP one last time for Senegal at the Olympics before he signs for PSG in the transfer window. OMGRELEASECLAUSE.
