Fucking hell!! :frantic:

They may just go and get an unheard of continental manager that works wonders with them. Then we'll be jealous.

What I really don't get is how the players always seem to have such glowing praise for him. He may be a brilliant man-manager and speak to them all individually like a second Dad but don't they notice on the field of play that it's his instructions that have them so ineffective?

For the first time in absolute ages I considered not watching todays game. I felt the result was obvious given our away form. Apparently, he said he learnt something today, thank fuck for that - he's finally cottoned on to what we had all probably sussed out in november. We shouldn't sit deep and try to defend. We have no attacking flair. We have no real gameplan. Quite honestly next season holds no joy for me before a ball is even kicked if Pards is still at the helm. He coaches the football out of players and has far too defensive a mindset, and he can't even coach that as we often leak goals. Can only pray that Llambias's comment re wanting good football were deadly serious and that Ashley is 100% in agreement. (Requires that they realise this is not good football!)

Don't know if I can be arsed to watch the second half, though I am curious to see if Pards does anything.

I can remember when we used to score goals like that all the time, back when Keegan was manager. Ain't seen us do that for donkeys.

There's the co again, 'we all know what Newcastle do, they sell their best players.'

Can see Cisse getting uber-frustrated again.

Could this display have anything to do with Pardew I wonder.

This looks familiar, sitting deep and only Cisse as an outlet.

Time to torture oneself.

FUCK, thought thst was in!

Bout fucking time Santon did that. YES

Santon LB, Perch RB, Jonas back in the middle. Midfield two of Tiote and Perch is too flat and unimaginative.

Now is not the time. Every time we play someone has to point out that the opposition manager would be better than Pardew They have a point tbf, it's not difficult to see how static we are most of the time.

Tiote

Not happy.

Go Berbatov!

A page of remarks because of a corner.

Nice corner from Marv.

Liking our pressing so far.

Others have already said. He was fucked off with the shit he'd been trying to deal with all night. Probably even some overheard mutters from the crowd. Let's face it, idiots on here even saying Cisse was doing nowt and ignoring he'd had nowt to deal with. Forst class ball that suits him, bang, GOOOAAAAAAALL.. He was just saying.. 'SEE!'

Cisse still looks like he can barely believe where he is and any moment now he'll wake up.

I'd have Anita in before him against most opposition.

Smash and grab. We were lucky. Need more imagination or a specific gamplan. Most interceptions: Begovic. (Intercepted every fucking set-piece we had, except one.)
