Mick's post is rather positive reading especially considering that he is one of Pardew's critics (no offence meant here btw).

Massive holes are starting to show with regards to our current transfer policy. This seriously needs to get addressed but knowing Ashley's lack of footballing knowledge and his overall stupidity, he's going to do f*** all.

What are his supposed strengths? Nice hair.

Still voted "nay" btw [/blindmisplaceoptimismofaturnaround]

I fucking hope so.

The signs atm are hardly encouraging but I'm definitely not worried about relegation. Fuck that.

Yep, Bent is a player who thrives on service, as it stands he won't get that here.

This was inevitable wasn't it?

Just get him to think he's playing Wolves and we're grand

"Jonas injured".

I miss Hatem already.

:lol: It's worse than I thought

Don't worry lads, we've got amazing squad depth! Oh wait. So how many transfer windows have we gone through without signing a first team CB? 2/3?

Would like to really see this video tbh. Would be funny and cringeworthy.

I'm basing it on last season's performance. Sure there were ups and downs and a few worrying signs but by the end of the season, we resembled what looked like a good footballing team. Definitely giving him time.

As the weeks go by, the more Pardew is seemingly out of touch with reality. Definitely still trust him to turn it around mind but it's so fucking frustrating how things are going at the moment. Pressure's almost certainly got to him - he really needs to stay calm and needs to show the players and the fans that he's got a hold of the situation. His previously quoted meticulous preparation for games is definitely not so evident this season. Said this last week, this is now the biggest test of his managerial career and one which I sincerely hope he succeeds in, for his sake and the club's.

It's looking like the case that once the team goes to shit (ie. a dip in confidence), he does too...

Definitely. Problem is our squad depth is so bad that we really can't send him out any time soon

The Britannia Stadium on a cold Wednesday night?

Absolutely pathetic showing from us today. Could have easily been 5-0 and Southampton would have deserved such a scoreline. Everything is such a mess at the moment. Fuck's sake.

This thread sucks (this is purely based on the thread title). Bye.

Now is Marveaux's time to shine. Pity that it will be in games sans Ben Arfa. Think those two could link up very well if they play together.

Indeed, sad times.

Couldn't be bothered to trawl through 12 pages, same discussion points about wor Pards then?

And that's the sad thing, really wanted QPR to go down this season.
