Newcastle striker Demba Ba: "It was good getting a draw because it was difficult. [Asked if he was determined to prove the manager wrong after being left on the bench] I was determined because lately I was not so happy with some of the things going on. But after the bad comes the good."

Fucking jackpot. Honestly that comment has made me more pleased than it has concerned. Whatever pissed him off galvanised him into his best performance for about nine months.

Shola over Demba? :yao:  20-25 minutes early.

What a needlessly cynical comment.

 

How is it cynical? His goals tonight and the one out of the blue at Tottenham got us points we probably didn't deserve. Same as the first 6 months of last season.

 

Player scoring helping us to points is papering over cracks now? :lol:

 

How do other teams manage it?

Goodness sake, man. I wouldn't have had too many complaints had we come away with nowt, but there was a lot to be pleased about in that second half and it wasn't a total smash and grab. It's just annoying to see people saying stuff like 'papering over the cracks', when that 45 minutes was clearly the best part of our season so far. I won't deny that there was help from the referees but every teams get a break now and again.

 

There's every reason to think we can kick on from here after a pretty ropey start (i say ropey; 5 points is probably par for the course).
