Most teams can chalk pre-season down as "just pre-season", but I don't think we can when you look at our form in 2014 as well. We've been abysmal and for me there's warning signs there about our upcoming season. We look like we're continuing on from where we left off and if so we're in serious trouble. Under normal circumstances you'd be slightly worried because we could just change manager if things go tits up, but Pardew will never be sacked so we're absolutely fucked.
