Sad part is that it wouldn't take all that much to get the fans off his back by making some tweaks to his policies. Invest a little more money in the squad, hire a real manager, actually get some advertisement money from reputable companies and stop doing insane things. Instead he just does this PR bullshit. You'd think a billionaire football club owner would want to be liked since he has nothing else to worry about. the investment and the manager would box it off for him, people wouldnt give a fuck about his shitty advertising if we were doing the business on a saturday. £20m a year and a good manager, sorted. we're such an easy fix its insane.

This is NEVER a top six team. Top half at a (very hard) push. One striker, one centre half barely worth the name, no creative midfielder. you underestimate what a good, tactically astute manager can achieve imo. not sure I agree with the top 6 thing (with this current crop) but we'd get top half, no problem with someone worth their salt in charge. theres some real f***ing dross in this league man. Tony Pulis had palace a point or so off it last season.

Good article on him today in the telegraph. We should go all out and get him.
-
If he'd been fucked last week we'd have been chinned at swansea, and pardew may not be here. just our luck.
-
I bet donachie is buzzing.
-
You cant fathom why he'd leave Derby County to join us? Really? Nah. Maybe if they fail to get promoted this season, but not at this very moment. Righto

I'd take maclaren over this pleb.
-
p.s - its an absoloute fucking pisstake that a point from hull, and a point from swansea, SAVES the cunt. They're hardly groundbreaking results!
-
said this in the other thread, but we're fucked, now was the time to bin him, he's here until at least the end of the month now, and I reckon we'll be cut adrift and wont recover. he's lucky as fuck that stoke had little interest in scoring more than one on monday, and that krul bailed him out today. we'll get fucking mauled by somebody, very soon.
-
he was shocking (again) today.
-
We've left it too late imo, he needed to go in this international break. we'll go down.
-
how the fuck are we not 3 or 4 down? hopefully swansea come out all guns blazing and give us a hiding.
-
i reckon we'll fluke a win here, fuck knows how, but i do.
-
Not very well I don't think, I'm sure they just used to draw, all of the time. Hoddles stock has risen the longer he's been out of the game.
-
Cabaye has backed him too.

lets hope douglas, and wullie, are right. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/sport-opinion/newcastle-united-job-still-attractive-7874171

Depends what you mean by 'choice'. Would I pick him in an ideal world? Would I f***, but i'd take him ahead of others from the pool we're likely to pick from. I also think we need someone who's going to keep us up, and I think he would. I just don't understand why anybody thinks that's the pool we'd pick from. Pardew was selected purely and simply because he has no spine and will do anything to please Mike. It's f*** all to do with his nationality. Tony Pulis, who resigned from Palace in a row over transfers, who sued Gillingham after being sacked, who was sacked by Stoke first time round after a big row with the chairman? Apart from Kevin Keegan, there's literally nobody less likely in world football to be offered the job, and nobody less likely to accept it. well, when you put it like that..... well we havent appointed foreign under ashley yet, what thinks we will now? We weren't buying solely from the continent back when Pardew was appointed either. There's been a big chance in policy since then. If Graham Carr has as much say as he's supposed to, I could very much see us looking to Europe - managers more used to these types of players, used to having their players bought and sold for them, used to bigger clubs pinching their players. Frank de Boer actually ticks every box as far as that goes, Ajax are one of the biggest selling clubs in Europe. theres got to be a salary issue as far as de boer is concerned though, surely?

he'd be fucking unreal.

I know! Rosler gets a canny few mentions later on in the thread too. I was pushing martin Jol, hmm, not so sure after fulham.
