Pardew isn't doing his job correctly, neither is the Chairman who didn't push on in the Summer to give us more depth, and most importantly the players aren't performing. Basic errors every week which lead to goals given away or not being able to keep 11 on the pitch.
The manager needs to start earning his corn, he's had the plaudits when things were going well, he's going to get criticism when things don't. Why the board gave him an 8 year contract God only knows
