Watch a compilation. Scored some hilarious goals last season. Seems pretty strong and good with his head but scored some howlers in that video!

Who did the fucking music for that video

We were shit under Pardew with Cabaye, Palace will be shit as well. It's s hilariously bad move for Cabaye, he'll be stuck there when they go down.

I think it's fair to say Shearer looked after himself when he was playing, he's entitled to get as fat as he wants

Nope, actually. Unless you quote specific people contradicting themselves.

Yeah, it might make us rubbish.

Yeah, England knocking it around with some nice 2 touch stuff, good to watch.

Look at that fucking knacker job

Making tactical changes/subs during the game or at half time, basically.

Not his strength, apparently.

Just been chatting to a mate at work, season ticket holder at Boro when McClaren was there. He cited his main strength as game management, which gives me a bit of positivity after 5 years of the worst game management possible.

Character, attitude

NWOAT

The 3+5 thing is just bizarre.

I've got nothing against him other than he hasn't been appointed on merit and shouldn't be here, it's not his fault we're shite and have no ambition. We'll spend some money this year but only because we have to as we need to get away from the relegation zone, a position we should have never been in. He has, to be fair, but we don't share the same ambitions for the club with those who appointed him.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. It's either that or stop watching again, I didn't have the energy to maintain my level of hatred for Pardew/Carver, just couldn't watch. Not expecting miracles, just fancy watching us trying to beat another team at football.

Holy generalization batman. Attributing various individual opinions to a group to make a point about contrariness is the most vacuous argumentative tactic imaginable, it happens on here all the time.

The zenith of my hate was Liverpool away, when he was clearly audible telling all of our players to knock it long to Ba for 90 minutes. We got dicked in every way imaginable and then he stated that we 'controlled the game' in his post match interview. edit - actually, the zenith was the first time the mackems beat us 0-3 at SJP under him. Yeah, the first time.

No fucking way.

Have you written a poem?

Can I continue to give the club pelters but watch the games and hope we win?

If you subscribe to the idea that fans know their own club better than anyone else, then yes, he did. It depends who the fans are, we literally had half of our fan base beating the Alan Pardew drum up until last year. Howay man, not even the daftest of our lot would say we played good football under Pardew. We knew (and still know) the truth of what happened to the team under Pardew, why is it different for the Derby fans? I was just answering the question of whether or not I subscribe to the idea that fans know their own club better than anyone else, I do, if the fans in question aren't idiots If the general consensus from Derby fans is actually that he plays decent football then fair enough, I'll have to believe it when I see it though. Yeah, fair enough.

I work there so I've been asking around for a few months, general consensus is he was the best they've had and going to the match was enjoyable. I sound like I'm backing this appointment in here, I'm not, but he'll get the benefit of the doubt from me, he's done enough to warrant that imo. They were on the pitch throwing season tickets at him months before he left. Can't believe you're back on board with a bloke who's just had the bullet from Derby and Forest. I certainly won't be back while he's here. I must be speaking to different people, either that or they're lying? Define back on board, I won't be setting foot in SJP until Ashley leaves. I'll be watching the games again, is that back on board?
