Guest Howaythetoon Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Great goal but he looked extremely sluggish and slow even. As for the daft bint interviewing him... she should know that during the holly month of Ramadam, Muslims cannot even touch alcohol. Anyway, alhamdulillah for wor Demba. Mashallah! Hopefully more goals will come. Inshallah! Eid mubarak to all Muslims by the way, especially our own. Haram at all times. (Hence why Demba politely declined to pass it on. ) Is it? thought it was Ok if you work in a bar for example or own an off-licence... Btw I once fasted for 10 days and when it came to playing football, I was weak and simply off the pace so its no wonder Ba and Cisse in partiuclar look so sluggish. No. It's all "evil". If that is the case then a lot of shop keepers in England are f***ed like Seriously, the Qu'ran also says its a sin to pass judgement and that one of god's gift to man is free will so.... It's also repetitive and f***ing boring. There will be no virgins waiting for you, my infidel. Thank Allah for that. Seriously the Qu'ran just like the Bible, is a walking contradiction due to how easy it is to misinterpret things or make of things what one will. Wor lass is one and she is meant to convert me, yet it also says respect other religions and that the man is of higher importance in the home etc. In general though the Qu'ran and Muslims are massively misunderstood. If you get to know a Muslim personally and become good friends with one, they are some of the nicest, warmest and most welcoming of people you will ever meet and yes, that's mainly because of their faith. For example if you knock on a Muslim's door late at night seeking shelter and food, they must oblige according to the Qu'ran. You can see why it become such a fast growing religion and why they stick so rigidly to their beliefs and themselves. Sadly extremism has entered into what is a peaceful religion and people, as the Qu'ran preaches throughout. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 I'm so glad Demba got his goal today. These last 6 months or so must have been hard on him mentally - any striker who goes on a goal drought does lose a bit of confidence and whilst he more than played his part between February and May (I'm sure Pardew made him aware of this every day), it is likely that deep down, he was unhappy about his lack of goals in that second half of the season. Today's goal was such a good finish and will most certainly act as a confidence booster. Like I've said in the match thread, a happy Demba Ba will be a massive asset to have. When he's happy, he's a force to be reckoned with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would never convert btw, I'm an athiest and while we have some outstanding religious debates, I do respect her faith or rather her belief in her God. She like me, knows that religion in the main is bull, but unlike me, she absolutely believes in a God and although some elements of the Qu'ran and Muslims in general will frown and downright send her to hell for being with me, in reality, she is expressing God's gift to all, her free will. God also says do not judge others or repress others etc. among hundreds of other contradictions. If Allah says she is sinning, he is also sinning for judging her... Me... thank God I'm an atheist!

Vinny Green Balls Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 the percentage of Christian pricks is in the world no different than the percentage of Muslim pricks. I lived in a conservative Muslim country for the better part of a year, and I found it extremely easy being a non-Muslim there. Libyans were nothing but accommodating and extremely warm and non-violent as a whole, even in a place with no functioning law and order. Utter ignorance in the West about Islam abounds. In fact, Muslims in general have a lot more to fear from the West than the other way around. they also have reason to fear the nutjobs like the Salafis a lot more because they are in their backyard. That said, Bas was sluggish, but he got his goal. That's all that matters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I still think we've got a problem with Ba, despite the goal. You'd have thought from the post-match interview that we'd lost, his manner was so miserable. It seems clear that Pardew has said to Ba that he intends to play him down the middle nearly all the time (I think he was quoted at 90%) Half way through the first game of the season, he switches him wider. If Pardew's semi-promise has influenced Ba in whether he stays or goes, then there's going to be some resentment. I don't like players demanding where they should play, but the manager has to be honest with them. I don't think Pardew has handled this correctly.

alexf Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Seems ridiculous that he dislikes playing there so much considering we are a much better "team" in that formation. Don't see why he and Cisse cannot switch from time to time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxfree Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Looked really miserable yesterday. If there's no agreement that Ba is "the" penalty taker, he really shouldn't make a fuss out of it.

M4 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 There is a school of thought that the guy who was fouled shouldn't take the pen. I know it's pretty common in French football but they're always making up their own rules. Was surprised it all was sorted so quickly, guess Demba knows better than to start an argument with Ben Arfa. Don't think it was too big a factor though, even after his goal he barely smiled.

Beren Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Ba is a bit hit and miss with his penalties so I'm glad he didn't take it in such a pressure moment. I think people are reading too much into Demba's alleged sulking too, fwiw. He looked fine and happy to me. He's just a little tamer in character than most of the team. One of my favourite squad members and one of the few whose words/interviews I'm fairly comfortable accepting at face value. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I don't think he was sulking either. He cracked a giggle when the interviewer asked if he could hand Jonas the bubbly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 As far as i'm concerned with Demba's demeanour in the post match conference and in general it can't be easy to act more joyful etc when you haven't eaten for so long. I know one thing if hadn't eaten for as long as Demba has i would be grumpy as hell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
