Just cementing his place in the team. Will probably be made captain after those quotes. Complete dufus.

It's clear Pardew is a bit wrong in the head. He actually does think he's some sort of genius and top manager.

Can't wait for these lot to get a tonking this weekend. That Swansea game has really gone to their heads.

Good thing IMO. It will be good for a sell out crowd to see exactly how far we've fallen. Will make the boos reverberate even more come the final whistle.

Am I the only one that's assuming Jack's made that all up?

He hasn't at all. Read most of them before on here. It's from a book.

What is Shearer doing man? Can't believe that.

That's outrageous 

What's the new watermark? Global HD?

Don't know if anyone caught Sunday Supplement this week. One of the journalists said the following ...

"I bumped into Pardew this week, and he was much more chipper, after the great result last weekend at Swansea"

We'll lose this. Injury excuse will rear it's head. But people won't have it because it's just too much at this point. The end is nigh.

Neil Lennon appointed Bolton manager

 

Wasn't he at Norwich who's currently topping the table? ... And he's has gone to Bolton who's is bottom of the table?

 

It's all about the money, isn't it?

My 2 year old nephew is going to this for his first game.  God knows why.

He'll end up a Leicester City fan.

We're a week away and here come the excuses ...

"It’s a time where we lose all our big players, and they come back and we’re going to have two days to prepare for a massive game. It’s a big, big chance for us to get our win in the next home game. We’ve got to try and take it.”

Sol Campbell.

Fantastic!

Love reading what mackems think about NUFC in our local rag like.

 

We get enough of that in the polls. Any sane owner would notice there was a problem when your local rivals are desperate for you to keep a manager.

They're even singing for him not to be sacked in matches where they aren't playing us. How humiliating is that? 

The players are still playing for Pardew so he must be doing something right.

Have seen this said a lot recently.

We haven't won a game for centuries, and have accumulated record low points over a period of time, and people can still say this absolute garbage, and feel clever.

So infuriating.

Just to get you in the weekend mood ... Chris Waddle.

Be warned this could actually make you top yourself.

“The one thing you don’t want when walking onto the pitch is fans holding banners up with ‘manager out’. The players are still playing for Pardew so he must be doing something right. I was at the Stoke City game and Newcastle played very well. They just couldn’t grab a goal.

 

“They dug in against Swansea and got a good result after going down to 2-0, so you can’t say the players aren’t giving it everything. But sometimes you have to be realistic and say ‘how good are the team?’ Currently, they’re on par with the teams in the bottom half of the league.”

 

“People might say they’re better than that, but does that mean you get a new manager in who can get more out of his team?

 

“Personally I don’t think you can. If a new manager comes in, he’d say to Mike Ashley ‘I need to bring in three or four players to make this team stronger’. Alan Pardew could probably say the same thing right now, but they haven’t got the budget at the minute so what’s the point in bringing a new manager in if he’s going to work from the same sort of line?”

I love pure playmakers man, in every sport too. I'm just like that, and it's the way I played too. Just a personal thing I guess.

I get where you are coming from KI. Don't mean to come across as though I am discounting his goal scoring record at all. The guy is a phenomenal player. Just my view on things, and my personal preference in a player.

Think it's based on current performance i.e. last season. Still a bit silly, mind.

 

It says 5 years tbh.

Well that's just awful then.

He's so embarrassing man 

I almost wish we didn't have Carr. It's just a waste, and it makes this all so much more infuriating.

Think it's based on current performance i.e. last season. Still a bit silly, mind.

I can't believe people watch Ronaldo and can't see he is nowhere near the team player someone like Zidane is. And honestly, saying he scores so many therefore he can shoot whenever is letting him off big time. The guy is really selfish at times. Shooting from distance when someone else can be played in is not good team play no matter what your goal scoring record is.

He is a very forceful personality in general. Going a bit off what TCD has just said about his attitude, you see it very evidently a lot more for Portugal. Always demanding the ball, and throwing strops when it isn't given to him, even though he then doesn't do the same as often for others. The team is almost held back by him a lot of the time, as they are always looking for him. I mean that team has the talent to be far better, but it doesn't function well together. It's often the Ronaldo show.

Yeah, the goals scored thing isn't the be all and end all for me.

I imagine the likes of Zidane could have scored a lot more if he was more selfish, but that wasn't really his mindset.

Ronaldo is incredibly selfish at times no doubt, he's just more single minded that way. Far less of a team player when you actually watch his game.

It would actually be great if we just signed the players this idiot wants, as he will then have nowhere to hide when they are all shite.

He's got it easy always blaming the players in some form or the other as it is. As he always then claims didn't sign them.
