Begbie Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Get Cisse out if he doesnt want to play for the team. Him and Pardew was excuse galore last season. 13 goals in 47 apparences is not good enough, he should be glad that he gets to keep the number 9 Jersey..

maybe_next_year Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 When did Cisse make excuses last year? And personally I don't think this goal return was bad considering he spent a while on the wing and the rest of the season on his own up front with the rest of the team scared to leave our own defensive third.

TRon Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Newcastle United star Papiss Cisse has been left to train at home alone in a dispute over wearing a Wonga shirt. United jetted out for their pre-season trip to Braga last night without their No 9. The Magpies striker had his bag packed for the trip to Portugal before being notified he would be unable to travel – unless he wore Wonga-branded training gear and the company’s logo during matches. Cisse, who is a devout Muslim, feels that wearing a shirt sponsored by the internet finance company would be against his religious and personal beliefs. The striker wore Virgin Money on his shirt when he first signed for the Magpies, but it’s believed Cisse has taken a very different view of the new sponsors. A close friend of Cisse told the Chronicle the striker felt Wonga were exploiting poor people with high interest rates. It’s believed Cisse does not want to quit the Magpies. However, he may have no choice but to leave if Wonga and United cannot meet his request to wear unbranded training kit and match-day gear. Cisse’s friend insisted the United star was not attempting to engineer a move. It’s understood that he does not want to leave Newcastle. Cisse friend’s said: “Papiss wanted to go to Portugal. His bag was packed and he was ready to leave. “Papiss loves the club, the fans and the city. He just wants the situation resolved. “He simply feels that this is against his religion.” It’s understood that part of Wonga’s agreement with Newcastle is that every player must wear the logo on their kit. When Cisse refused to wear the kit, he was told to report instead to the club’s Benton base to train on his own with one of the fitness coaches. Cisse had hoped to wear an unbranded shirt or a Toon top with a charity logo. He will now wear unbranded kit during his fitness training while United are in Portugal. It has also emerged that a meeting with the PFA has not resulted in a resolution. Both Wonga and United declined to comment last night. Yohan Cabaye, Hatem Ben Arfa, Tim Krul and Moussa Sissoko were all on board United’s private jet to Portugal. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/papiss-cisse-could-quit-newcastle-5135596 So there's the unofficial Cisse viewpoint. He's taken it too far IMO, he's made his point, he should wear the shirt under duress if he has to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weezertron Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 He should adopt a new celebration where he hides the sponsor with his arms, or folds up the shirt from the bottom so it's not visible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shush Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Time to quickly move him on and bring in Bent and Remy. I'd actually want to keep Cisse, but if he won't wear the shirt than he has to go. I wish we weren't associated with Wonga, we should have got a more credible sponsor, but we are where we are so we have to accept Cisse needs to move on asap so replacements can be brought in.

We also have to show that we can build a better team with Wonga as sponsors. At the moment their association has only been negative, so it's imperative that we sign quality players to show that they are a benefit to the club, not a millstone.

Aye, we do need to get away from the negativity Wonga is bringing us and focus on builing a better team. Cisse is a very good finisher but I wouldn't be too fussed if he was moved on if the strikers of the same or better caliber are brought in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weezertron Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 How much are we getting per season from Wonga, though? I'd rather have the 10 millions pound striker, personally. We're a football club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
