Alan Pardew; “We will reflect on the second half (Fulham) and make sure that never happens again.

If our fans are a little bit concerned after Saturday, they shouldn’t be. We are looking at those above, don’t worry about that”.

Jenas claims no goldfish bowl and Dyer says he just liked to go to a restaurant with his family after match!!

Fans who didn’t see the Fulham match might guess Ben Arfa was a weak link but he was arguably our top player.

Pardew; “Hatem, I thought, did some fantastic things, his discipline in the team is improving and I thought he was a good thing for us. He scored a good goal”.

Alan Pardew – “Ever since Andy Carroll left, Papiss was my first choice.

I spoke to Demba about Papiss and he can’t wait to join up with his teammate in Newcastle… the competition he will bring to our squad when he joins us should inspire the players and reassure them of this Club’s ambition”.

Cissé had this to say about his international strike partner, “Demba Ba is here so I think he’ll help me. When I was going to join (last summer) and my club refused the offer we spoke about it”.

Papiss Demba Rodney Cissé has now signed a five year contract and will wear the number nine shirt.

Combining Demba Ba’s 22 goals in his 31 matches in the Premier League with Cissé’s 37 in 65 Bundesliga games suggest exciting times ahead.

Sky Sports are claiming Newcastle could be due to sign the splendidly named Papiss Demba Rodney Cissé, the scorer of 37 goals in 65 Bundesliga matches.

The 26 year old striker is Demba Ba’s strike partner for Senegal and reports suggest he is on his way to St.James’ Park as we speak.

One of The Mag’s great columnists, Barry McQueen, has died suddenly aged 50.

We reproduce Barry’s last ever article for The Mag website, all I will say is he was a really lovely bloke and a great Newcastle United supporter. He was one of us.

“In a way this injury is a punishment from God. I have done lots of things which were not moralistic but I have understood that I was not always right”.

Ben Arfa needs an arm around the shoulders and the support of manager, players and fans, he’s got mine for sure.

I see nothing wrong with Ba talking about wanting to play Champions League football, that is what Premier League players, especially ours, should aspire to.

Not too sure though about Hatem and his ‘..not really a lot of French in the team…’!
