Independent headline:

 

Newcastle sign £8m Cisse... and will keep Ba

 

St James' Park to see an all-Senegalese strikeforce as Toon turn into the window's big spenders

 

Dam right :thup:

 

From the same article "...it is understood to be the case that the clause in his contract actually stipulated that Ba cannot be sold until the summer transfer window.".

 

Bugger was hoping it was a relegation release clause. :undecided:

 

If he signs a new contract (and I suspect he will), the clause won't exist.

 

This signing could be exactly what is required to convince our big players to stay.

Pards is owa the moon on nufcTV  :D

 

:)

 

Anything in particular?

 

Big fuck off cheesy grin to start with.

Says we've been considering him ever since he came to the club but had been out of our reach financially.

Saying with him, Cabaye, Demba, Hatem...things really starting to look exciting.

Plays off the shoulder and in behind, but has a lot more to his game than that. Good size and can score left foot, right foot and header.

Very significant signing for football club, shows the position we are in when a player they think is right they can make the move.

At 26 he's not young, coming into his prime so has the character to step up.

 

Genuinely just looks over the moon.

Niceeeeee.

 

What a difference a good signing makes! (mood-wise anyway) :)

Difficult to pick out any one thing, but good good words again from him.

 

Was on the list as soon as Carroll left. Been out of our reach, but we were able to react quickly.

 

Good pressure on the current players, let's see what they do (he was in a similar situation with Geoff Thomas at Palace).

 

Plays off the shoulder to go in behind, but more to him than that, quick, and can score from balls from the side with his head but also two good feet.

 

Didn't talk about him to Demba as it can be unfair to put players in that position.

 

Prime of his career, not young so has had pressures before. Will deal with it in an honest way as he is an honest player.

Has anyone else had a stupid grin on their face since hearing about this today? Smiling like a loon.

 

So basically all we need now is a new center-back and to possibly offer Ba an improved contract at some point. World domination beckons..

Exhausting reading the last 30 odd pages, fuck me though what a signing! Not sure if I'm happier with the player or with the intent we have signalled with his signature. Cannot wait till February 1st, and as has been put so eloquently by someone else already: "please Ashley don't kick us in the balls after this!"

 

Special mention to KD who started the ball rolling when the news first broke. Immense thread  :snod:

Quite pleasing that we're 6th in the league and we make a signing like this. Perhaps the lack of ambition we showed in selling Carroll and weakening in the last transfer window, as opposed to strengthening like we (so far, I hasten to add!) will mean the Coloccini situation doesn't end up like the Enrique one?
