Redknapp confirming he's interested in Ba - and talking about a release clause in his contract.
Would this lad ever fuck off?
Trying to unsettle Ba, and his form.

Would be interested to see how this question came about..

Slimey underhanded tactics again from Redknapp.

Would be very surprised to hear that Ashley etc agreed to an easy get out clause considering the alleged huge agents fees that were paid to secure Ba

TherapyBoy

Sky sports news reporting a quote from the Daily Mail that there's a £10 million release clause in his contract. Hopefully it's bull...

Most Premier League transfers have clauses in them , I bet #thfc have a few but most opposing managers wouldn't blab them out in public

Surely the question should be who told Redknapp and all the other leagues managers before Harry said it in public

The point is he's always doing it but claims he doesn't

Harry does love to talk about players from other clubs, always has done.

He talks about every player though I think thats just Harry says nice things about everyone

I believe it was a reporter that said it in the press conference that Demba had a release clause and Harry said thats what he heard too.
Anyone with interest could find this out from the agent anyway, and this is likely something that Demba's agent requested in his contract and not something newcastle specified.

I'd imagine the Agent was pimping him around looking for some more massive Agent fees

There isn't just one agent involved with Demba Ba, indeed 5 or 6 all vied to get Ba's transfer when he was released from West Ham.

One particular agent tried to sign him up for Everton until the news was broken, and it wouldn't surprise me if this very agent leaked out details of Ba's contract.

Anyway, £10m release clause? Yeah right..

bazual

So 2-1, sounded like an injury time winner from Jonas.

Danny Simpson taken off injured with Raylor coming on for him. Hopefully its not too serious as he has been a good performer as the season has gone on.

Supposed to be a savage individual goal from HBA, I'm sure That Guy will tell us all about it when he gets back, nice game to be at and we have finally gotten revenge on Blackburn.

Alan Pardew described Ben Arfa's goals as the "best I've ever seen"

Can't wait for the highlights show!

And to beat Blackburn in the dying seconds like they did to us in the Carling Cup was sweet :pac:

Goal

Amazing goal, but I can't see how this is the best Pardew has seen? Nowhere near for me.

Not to take away from it though, stupidly good.

Morpork

All 3 goals.

I'll take that FA Cup draw. Fancy us progressing to the next round with either Brighton or Wrexham. Here's hoping

Been Toonless, boards.ieless and internetless for the last 4months. Man have I missed the games and the banter. Went away in Sept and just got back, all I can say is, what a belter of a season. Just seems to be getting better! HOWAY THE LADS!

That_Guy

Top notch weekend in the Toon. Ben Arfa's goal... Messi-esque. I never tire of seeing it.

It was class goal alright and Jonas' finish as well was sweet, pity about the lack of highlights of the game. Pardew must have to FA Cup high enough in his priorities with the team he put out. How did Abeid play? See him playing the next match or Gosling!?

PauloConn

Just saw the goals there (all 38 seconds for 3 goals!!!) But class goals from HBA and Jonas. Thats exactly like the Maradonna goal where he skins everyone on the team (at least once), pure class.
And loving where the seasons goin as well. Few bad results but overall, have to say we're looking good. Hopefully Ba and Tiote are back soon and aren't poached while the windows open from evil greedy clubs.....

Thought he did ok. Nice to see him get a run out. Still has a bit to learn but I'd personally prefer to have Gosling in there. Guthrie is back in training but might be too soon for him to come back in just yet.

Mackems on the 3rd of March. I'd imagine it'll most likely be on at 12pm.

Jason Prior, a 23 year old trialist made his debut for the reserves V Wigan and apparently scored an absolute belter and scored it whilst wearing the number 9 shirt.

Stuff dreams are made of. He's the new Santiago Munez.

Any news on what type of leg injury it is? Hopefully its not a severe knee injury or broken leg.

Interesting to see we're bidding for Morrison.

Massive potential but an absolute troublemaker.

Was just a couple of days ago I was looking at him in United's squad so a bit weird that we've went in for him! :pac:

Would pay just over £1m for him, but I expect United would look for a 35% or so sell-on-clause!

Mr T sent off in a friendly game against Tunisia before the ACON, a few more of those and he will be back before ya know it

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP)—Didier Drogba and Salomon Kalou scored and Cheick Tiote was sent off as three of Ivory Coast’s English Premier League players were prominent in a 2-0 friendly win over Tunisia on Friday.

Kalou fired home just before halftime and Chelsea teammate Drogba converted a penalty two minutes into the second half as the African Cup of Nations favorite launched its final run-in to the tournament with an impressive victory over the 2004 continental champion.

Drogba set up Kalou and then netted from the spot after a handball by Karim Haggui.

Newcastle United midfielder Tiote was red carded with less than 20 minutes to go for a dangerous, off-the-ball challenge.

Vurnon San Benito

Conveniently sent off in his first game... maybe a tad too presumptuous? :pac:

Yeah I did that a few years ago when we beat Liverpool 2-1 at home, early flight over and then back that night. Tough going, was never so tired in all my life! Would be happy enough with that team but maybe Shola in instead of Best. Hughes' first game for QPR so they'll wanna make a good impression. Would still be disappointed not to win though, they've a good few out.

Gwan the Stoke. A win tomorrow sees us leap frog Liverpool by a point. If we win by five clear goals we'll go above Arsenal.

LET'S GET CARRIED AWAY.

Win tomorrow would be great, to go above Liverpool and everything!

Howay The Lads!

Why do toon fans see Ryan Taylor featuring on the bench tomorrow? Is it not worthy of consideration in midfield at least?

I'd like to see him start out on the right personally. Did a tremendous job against Man United out there imo.
