Yes, the team sit a respectable 9th, won yesterday, 2 pts behind media darlings Swansea and and will in all likelihood beat Burnley at St James's the next day "end game", indeed. "end game" my hole I agree. This is more like Waiting for Godot than Endgame. Too high brow for here bro.

Has experience developing youth as well.

Corrected.

In the short term I think Mash will give Beardsley a go. He fits the bill...Has repeatedly said delusional good things about Mash and Crystal Pardace. I don't think there is a plan in place as it looks like (please let it be true) AP has played his big cards and caught the regime by surprise. I have no doubt that Mash will take the compensation money and replace AP for free with Beardsley (tiny pay rise). There is a mix of things that have impacted the Pardew situation. He knows he isn't wanted here and never will be and is always a few bad results away from pressure (he'll get a free ride at Palace). It is also the case that he might just have run out of the energy required to be dealing with the back room situation at the club which by all accounts is amateurish and chaotic.

I'm gonna light some candles and put the Martin Luther King speech on.

Pardhog day?

This is some real Matrix shit.

There is a tremor in the force. Jedi Council called to emergency meeting.

"There has been an awakening...Have you felt it?"

His talent is alarming.

Ayooooooooooooooooooooooooooooozeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee11111111!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Worse than Fox tbh.

They're carrying on like he rabbit punched Coleman 17 times and then had a fag.

Pards loves a high profile scapegoata. He longs for the days he could bench Tevez and Masch.

Baines will get a brace (free kick off Taylor and pen off Collo). Lufattykaku hatrick. Cabella blamed for world hunger.

In the Matrix there must be a timeline where he goes to Palace and takes them down. Just got to find it. Another coffee first though.

They could triple his wages.

I said the day he arrived he was the new scapegoat. Hauled off at half time. Bet your porn mags on it.

It's like when Hatem's starts coincided with games against the top 4.

I feel ill just looking at his name. This bloke is getting paid for just doing shuttle runs every game.

Shit performance, shit players, shit manager, shit sponsor, shit owner, shit coaches, shitola forever.

He's getting Hatem'd..There is no shadow of a doubt about it now. Bench warming while Gouff starts every game.

The general point about the club having a spiritual connection (last couple of pages) with the support is the most important one. The club has changed so much in its very nature that connection is broken and regardless of ritual it no longer deserves unquestioning loyalty. Part of this paradigm is the act of consumerism, sadly football now is just consumption of a product and not the following of a team. Nowadays the consumer just creates a fake idea in his head (put there by advertising or branding). Football is now like consuming Apple products or a specific beer, it's momentary, illusionary and in the final analysis just simulcra. Football is dead.

You can lead the horse to water......

This is why socialism fails.
