Don't hold out much hope for Palace, mind you. 19th is fine for now though.

Howay WBA, get three points.

Not the letter of resignation I was hoping for this morning but fair play.

'Always looking forward Jonas'. Ironic really.

Fair play to Hull for doing their job. Shame our stadium is full of cunts.

I hate the crowd.

It already is. Don't forget we don't score goals. Nah I think we'll rescue this tbh. Has that feel about it, a typical scrappy Pardew special. Well we weren't behind at HT so there's every chance.

Sackpardew folk ought to use this screencap to encourage Ashley to save his investment.

How's the crowd now? Apart from pigshit thick.

Don't think he'd ever get sacked unless we were close to relegation with little time left. Needed him to resign. Doesn't look likely given the majority of idiots in the ground. They deserve what they have and will get. Sorry for those supporters who have worked on the campaign so far and will continue to protest.

Need this filmed.

Tend to agree, but this campaign should be supported fully by everyone IMO. He's not fucking good enough, might as well tell the world about it. Definitely, I think what happens today could help push him out, just not getting my hopes up for a quick response from Ashley. I'll be happy as long as we lose and Pardew gets a battering from the whole ground. Still think he's bullet proof and wanted from above, but he's vulnerable to the fans. We can make him walk. The campaign needs to have the fortitude and resolve to not lose heart if he doesn't walk today, or even the next home game in October. Have to be unrelenting.

Looks so different and sad without his hair/beard.

Unbelievable. Is this bona fide? In literal disbelief. Poor Jonas if true. Absolutely incredible. Hope he's alright.

Haven't been to a game in ages. Wish I could make this one. Feels like Judgement Day is almost here.

Amazing end to the night

Reported.

WUM.

I can't believe that either. The thing I can never believe about this, is that while everyone would admit Pardew had a good season that season, however he did it, it's getting to be a fair few years ago now. He can have been doing okay back then, but still be doing terribly now, which he is and some people aren't grasping that. Lots of managers have done an okay or good job for a while and then got it badly wrong later. To anyone still saying "But he came 5th" I would say that his tactics worked because he had Demba Ba to play his archaic long balls to and an in form younger Collocini at the back to help keep it tight. The team is worse now, but still more than capable to 10th-8th with decent football if Pardew had any adaptability at all. That's the bare minimum of how I expect him to be doing considering we don't do anything in cups. I don't expect fifth, but I don't expect bottom of the league either. I don't expect to get beat 3-0 or 4-0 every other week. I don't expect us to concede twice as many goals as we score. I don't expect us to continue to play long ball when we sub on a small fast striker instead of a big man. I don't expect us to keep taking the same corner that took 102 games to generate a goal. I also don't expect our defenders to be so lackluster they switch off and pass the opposition through on goal in the first minute, like what happened at the weekend. Those are all the things I don't expect. I do expect a cohesive unit, I do expect an organisation and focus that makes the players look interested in the game they're playing. I expect intensity. I expect being able to hit the guy in your own shirt from more than five yards away, not only in your own half, but in the final third as well. I expect skillful players to get a chance to do what they do well and the right players to be played in the right positions. I expect wingers on the wing instead of fast strikers and central midfielders. That's pretty much what I do and don't expect out of Pardew. In every single one of these areas Pardew is failing my expectations. So who's to blame that the players are worse than when we finished 5th ? From August 16th

He's s*** at everything he does, which part of his job do you want me to comment on? Do you mean results? Do you mean tactics? Do you mean PR? Do you mean at picking the team? Do you mean motivating the team? Do you mean at pinpointing where we're going wrong? Do you mean what do does with his 4 days of working on our defence? Be more specific and I'll have a go at answering it, I'm not going into everything because it's all been done before and life is too short. How do you think he's doing? What did you think of him when we finished 5th ? Do you think he has good enough players ? What do you mean by PR what do you think he should be saying ? http://sackpardew.com/myths/

Spot on Gino. With the exception of the Sherwood bit. I can see myself loathing him very quickly. His footballing views don't agree with me ("defenders are for defending, attackers are for attacking"). I'd still take it over Pardew. In a heartbeat. Don't get me wrong, but I'm not sure how long I'd be happy but I'm a miserable hard-to-please sod

Low key start for Hatem. Some wild assertions being leaped to in here

Can't wait for Hernandez to come to SJP

20 minutes until Bruce drops the Hatem bomb
