In the last 15 games, we've only got anything from 3 of them. A home win against a shit Wigan team down to 10 men, a late home win against bottom of the table QPR and a 0-0 draw against out of form Norwich City. 15 games isn't far off half a season for fucks sake. Even before then it took Cisse's arse from a wayward shit Sammy shot to beat the mighty West Brom at home. One of the other few wins was scraping past Norwich when they were probably the better team. It's absolutely shit. When we went down we didn't have a midfield and it was obvious the direction we were heading. Now we have the players but the manager is fuckin useless. Get this cunt to fuck!

Don't think it would be personally. We got rid of Best and Lovenkrands and didn't replace them. We're pretty much down on 3 strikers since the summer. Graham and one other would be nice.

As much as that's a lie he would have been f***ing crucified on here had he said they were s***. "Wouldn't dare say that about the senior players" "Bully" etc True, although he could have said the team as a whole played poorly, admitted some mistakes and apologised to the fans.

"The young players, they did well today" Jesus fuckin Christ.

Want him out now, although I do dread to think who the replacement would be. Pardew is doing nothing to get this team going forward. Everything is shocking. Even our victories we've been lucky. We haven't played above ourselves all season, which is why the injuries excuse is bollocks because we're still underperforming whatever players are out there. Terrible away record, most direct team in the league, 10 defeats in 12 domestic game, can't change a game as we havent come from behind in years, ripped apart and terrible organisation at the back, one dimensional set pieces, terrible excuses, takes longer than the fans to see what doesn't work.... I could go on and on. The only positive he has is he had a good season last season and he's a PR man.

Yes, Chelsea is Chelsea Demba. It isn't Newcastle (or West Ham), and thank fuck for that really. Horrible club with horrible fans.

Ridiculous comment.

does that mean we can only fulfill our potential with some owner spending loadfs of their own money. doesn't every club have "that" potential ? I wouldn't say thats what it means. Building the club would help to fulfill its potential. Increasing turnover, getting commercial revenue up to and beyond previous levels and improving the brand image of the club to attract well respected bigger sponsors. We've just signed a shit sponsorship deal with a down market payday lender. What kind of respected company is going to want to be associated with Sports Direct. To fulfill our potential Ashley needs to build the club, not hinder it's progress in favor of promoting Sports Direct.

FFS. Then we need to ditch our principles and pay the going rate or arrange a short-term stopgap. We cannot afford to leave ourselves short this time. Aye. The possibility of Ba fucking off has been there since the end of last season. There really is no excuse.

Tonight was shocking for Pardew. The defense looks unorganised and our only decent striker on the right wing. But worst of all, Obertan was probably our main threat, and he took him off for a defensive midfielder. He was caught on Sky telling them to go 442 long ball, and it just got far far worse than it was before.

We can't just keep letting players go because they're not first choice players. This constant one in one out is shit. Or two out one in in the attacking positions.

Oh for arguments sake Remy... 10m transfer fee plus 30K a week over 5 years... you do the maths. As for uninsurable... how the f*** do you know that? Forgot to say we may actually get someone committed to the cause As for the uninsurable part, why would we get him on an incentivised contract based on appearances if there wasn't something amiss Committed to the cause? The man has giving nothing but his all every time he has played for us. He's as committed to us as anyone. If only the club were as committed to him we wouldn't even be having this debate because I strongly believe he'd rather stay here than leave. He's not daft though, he knows he's worth far more than what he's currently on. The club are daft though because they obviously don't and this is why we are on the verge of losing our top goalscorer and key player. God knows what it will cost to replace him, no doubt a lot more than it would cost to keep him Oh, and there is no way there isn't some kind of insurance policy for Ba in place, regardless of his so-called dodgy knee. He did, after all, pass a medical.... Ok let's look at it like this... This is a man who kicked up a fuss last season because Cisse was getting all of the plaudits. If he'd have stayed on the left (which would have been best for the TEAM) he would never have got a move to Chelsea based on his goal return at the end of last season from that position. As an individual player he is undoubtably talented but as a team player and human being he is all that's wrong with modern football. f*** him, f*** his agents and I hope he fails miserably What fuss? He has never publicly complained. Our stupid rent a gob manager is the one that told the whole world Ba was unhappy not playing centrally and even if he was unhappy, who can blame him, he scores goals there. I'll tell you what is wrong with modern football... people like Mike Ashley and numpties like you who f***ing hang out of his arse. All I know is my club is losing its top goalscorer, its number one striker, the best centre-forward I've seen here since Shearer, at January, while we are only 2 f***ing points off bottom. And all because we don't think he's worth circa 80K a week. If he isn't, who the f*** is? Is Del Boy gonna score the goals to keep us up? How about Pardew? Or the man himself Mike Ashley? Demba Ba is worth what it is believed he wants, circa 80K a week. Anyway, his gain and whoever gets him, wor loss. He would have been away if we'd offered him that anyway, not that we should have. He's there to make money for himself and his agents. One big move after the other. We wouldn't have had him without the clause so its silly to cry about it now. This was always going to happen.

Will be delighted with that but obviously we need more. Delighted? We'd be a Cisse knock away from relegation contenders. I think we'd have strengthened our squad significantly. Hardly. We would have improved at right back, and hopefully centre back, but we'd still be lacking in numbers. We've got a tiny squad as it is, and you'd be delighted to only improve it by one number. For me, we need two strikers now Ba has left. We needed one with him here anyway. Don't get me wrong, I would be surprised in good way if what Scott Wilson says is true, only because my expectations are so low and the club do everything to drain hope away from us.

Ashley is the man that employs him tbf.

As others may have said, we blew our chance in the summer. Far easier to attract players when you've had a good season, difficult now. It maybe years before we have another season like last. We've just wasted our chance. And it's all very well Llambais and Ashley wanting us to be profitable, but I don't see any effort there to improve our turnover. More important seems to be pushing Sports Direct and Ashley's businesses as opposed to building the club with decent commercial partners. Our turnover used to be good in comparison with other Prem Clubs, now it's pretty poor. The tacky image the club has persued has limited good commercial deals and stopped us being able to plough more money into the playing squad. It's depressing stuff.

I would love for him to come out with something smart (he is good at it), but it won't help anyone. It's a pity Ferguson's gonna have the last word on this whole thing. It's not a pity. Pardew has riled him. All he needs to do now is sit back with a smug grin on his face.

Hes a better manager that fuckin Pardew, thats for sure. Not as good of a bullshitter unfortunately, but a better manager.

It would be Kinnear again, or Martin mad dog Allen.

Usually I would say sack him, but I dread to think who the replacement would be so we're in a no win situation.

We'll very likely win with a weakened team playing. Southampton next week is infinitely more important and should be the immediate priority. Embarrassing from you to call it a meaningless match. We need to win something, and this is the best chance of doing it. Far from meaningless. Play the first team, the strongest team. They need practice and a confidence boost.

7 of the 12 games at home too.

Didn't think Marveaux did too bad when he came on tbh.

No point rating the players because the performance comes from Pardew and his shocking tactics. Ben Arfa tries to break free of them and can look good, but unless one of our players produces a moment of brilliance off their own back, we're fucked. Starting Sammy was a ridiculous decision. No where near ready, and might never be. He should have been sent out on loan and given a run of games in the Championship or League One to test him, rather than experimenting in the Prem. Ferguson as well, so one dimensional. If not their faults though, that's the standard they're at. A combination of lack of investment and terrible tactics has totally wasted last seasons progress. So so predictable its frustrating.

There wasn't much option but to piss against a wall or in the street on the way to the game tbh.

Me bottom right with my back to camera in the black top.
