I didn't Boo DEmba Ba - I applauded him! He was awesome, all over the pitch and a constent threat defending from the front! I said when we didnt sign him that I hoped if anyone from Newcastel were to score it would be him, just need Tunny to step up and hit the winner at Bolton! Demba Ba is right, he was t the ground and ready to sign, but Stoke or TP pulled out for what ever fabricated reason!
Someone tweeted these to Kammy...Not intentionally rubbing salt like, but just goes to show how close you cam to getting him! please log in to view this image please log in to view this image please log in to view this image
Not a fabricated reason. I can see why they did not spend 6 million on him if I am honest. We took a punt as he was a free. Ashley would not have sanctioned it otherwise!
Rumours from a few Stokies on Twitter are that the Stoke medical team messed up on Demba Ba's medical, saying he had failed it when he hadn't and by the time we realised the mistake, he had signed for West Ham. Might not be true and I sincerely hope it isn't.
We knew how close we were to getting him. He was telling fans at the training ground or the Brit, wherever he was, that he had signed, obviously subject to medical. I knew as soon as he signed for West Ham he would go on to score loads of goals against us, and he will continue to do so, if we're not relegated that is.
