14 games left, 15 points off relegation... Should be fine. That said we could easily lose 8 of those 14.

I don't think his attitude in the pitch has been that bad. There were games where he worked hard for the team without getting any service. The most worrying thing has been his first touch and control, not to mention panic in front of goal, which was terrible. He clearly had the confidence stripped right out of him rather than laziness. Not saying it's all our coaches fault but we have seen the same from Tiote, Cabaye and Ben arfa. Feels like we are getting rid because our coaching staff aren't capable enough to get him back to where he has been the past years of his career. 10m is a good recoup though. Rather we played him tbh.

Wow. Guess Gouffran is going more central. If we get 10m for him we have done well.absolute joke our staff have ruined him though and can't get him back to form.

Still here then :jesuswept: Not that anyone really expected different. Comes to something when I hope we loose enough games to finish outside the top 10 so he gets sacked. Not alone in that thinking either.

Probably one of the numpties throwing bricks out of the skip at coppers after the game. He is that bright. Such high hopes turned into a charver with brains the size of a Gnat. Its time to move on, sentiment aside. Williamson works well next to someone that can think rationally, Taylor makes both of them look as bad as they can be. Should have cashed in when we could years ago.

nice quotes on the official site. He was over eager to impress and not fit enough to do what he wanted. Easy to be as headless as the chickens running around him in black and white shirts.

I am looking forward to having the honor of seeing him join another club than us in the summer.

Why doesn't anyone in the press have the bottle to write it? He has been a complete sham since he got here. I can only imagine they really just don't care. - Some great signings (nothing to do with him) and a shit load of luck got us to fifth without even playing particularly well, especially game to game. - We have never looked like a dangerous attacking unit since he got here. - He did improve our defence but we have always been vulnerable at set pieces and our man marking and backing off has been woeful constantly. Height that was something recognized by him nearly three seasons ago but never addressed. - Players have gone backwards under him and his apparently qualified coaching staff. - Flirting with relegation/weighed up with a shock 5th place means this is make or break for him this year. We were broken a long time ago. - Cup runs - cup exits nearly all in Embarrassing fashion. - Derby results and certainly performances that must almost be the worst in our management history? - Blames everyone but himself and even berates fans. How down trodden are we that we put up with this as fans?

I was going insane at that, he's a moron. Whenever he's in a situation where he has to think he f***s it up. It is a common theme... confidence. The squad lacks it in front of goal. Sissoko is a bit of a luxury, the deluxe caravan type of luxury..its still a bloody caravan. He has all the tools to be immense and we get flashes of it. He does good work up the flank and makes some neat passes but bottles it in front of goal and doesn't do enough coming back lately. Back to my original point though, we saw it with Santon who does this all the time, Obertan, Gouffran, Cisse in the past year, Debuchy..they all panic and look for a pass or an extra touch rather than striking the fucking ball towards goal. They are literally scared to give it a go. Santon should have scored today from that kind of senario..but he usually has that happen several times a match. Either its confidence or its Pardews tactics telling them to find the pass. Either way the coaches are at fault once again. Even Hatem and Anita are in the same boat at times although they sometimes just over play it, as does Sissoko. Tiote is the only guy that gives it a go, and he is usually too far in the other mindset trying to strike it from everywhere.

Alright. He is Lovenkrands without the goals... Nah he will be fine once he settles and gets match fit. Just shy of confidence, obviously, and we absolutely have the staff here to fix that. Just give him the mop and tell him to report to Papiss

Easy to miss..Joe thought he was the janitors apprentice... Cisse denied taking him under his wing.

Now we are talking.

We'll not. We'll not. Our players, and possibly Pardew, tends to get out players to put out a better performance against bigger clubs. So there is a possibility. I think the club is close to implosion again personally and we are due an absolute destruction, Chelsea could certainly do that to us. Morale is already low, fans are on the brink of turning and there is nothing to play for, it is pretty much a given. Which is probably why we will win. We will probably get something from the Spurs game though.

The majority of fans are idiots who blame Joe Kinnear for all of this. Ashley hiring him has worked perfectly for him in terms of deflecting the blame away. Well Kinnear is not blameless but he is probably 3rd in line. He should get blame for not bringing anyone in.. He has had two strikes (windows) and failed in both. Tbf we should have got far more for Cabaye that is also failure. But he is 3rd in line. Ashley is the long term problem but Pardew is without doubt the short and long term problem and has to go. Preferably all 3 should. I just cant grasp why no-one would want to buy this club..maybe people have tried and Ashley isn't interested? I don't know. Is there any chance of a title change btw? I really hate the idea that someone from the club might stumble upon the board and not immediately see the hatred that 99% of the forum have for Pardew.

Surely the pressure will be on after Chelsea thump us, if it isn't now. (From the fans) And yes.. I would gamble the possibility of kinnear taking over rather than keeping Pardew. JFK can't take the job long term and he would at least get our team more focused.

Until the players turn it makes no difference what the fans and media think. We still need to make the club aware he needs to go.

He is pathetic and at Souness level of hatred for me now. I used to sympathize because I thought he was at least more likeable than Souness but just talentless. He cclearlh does not give a shit about the fans or the club. I don't understand how there are fans onside, how the media still bums him. To be honest it grates me the thread title doesn't even show the hatred. There surely isn't anyone on here that wouldn't replace him tmrw. Now we are no talking about making the best of a bad situation or better the devil you know. There cannot be anyone that would not like a new manager. Let's face it with nothing left to at for its a great time.

Ashley has to go but he is easier to live with than Pardew. There is no excuse for this team not finishing top 8. None. While he will still be hated in quarters, having a manager that can actually manage and have us top 8, go somewhere in a cup and win a derby once a year would suppress Ashley hate. End of the day Ashley has no-one but himself to blame. Pardew is officially Souness league.

You would say even pardew couldn't squander our points advantage to finish outside top ten... Fact is loses to Chelsea and spurs with villa winning and they are a point behind, Southampton will overtake us and the order clubs below are picking up points. Oh and that clogged Charlie Adam was everything we were missing today. Running the show against manure.

Such a terrific point. Look at what Adam Johnson has started doing under Poyet, after looking like a huge flop after that big move to Sunderland. I don't know why people can't appreciate that this guys struggles are really just further evidence of how bloody awful Alan Pardew is. Yeah but it's not just Poyet (as you know) the good majority of coaches in this league would be better for this club, or would in the least have us playing with passion and style.

that would require coaches that could or know how to do that.

Bingo. X 100 Gutless, clueless coach with no confidence in his players = gutless, clueless performance with no confidence in ourselves. Go figure.. Then get another hobby to take the edge off because he is here to stay.

Same as the rest of our team, can manage some nice build up play but have zero quality in the box or end productwise.

Gutless but not garbage.

Cisse not even on the bench while this clown starts. Sackable decisions alone.
