  1. I'm kind of torn at this point. I couldn't bear seeing Pardew's smug face if we win. On the other hand, I'm confident he'll never be sacked so we might as well avoid relegation.
  2. He's supposed to have been a great youth coach and I think that's his level.

    That's the nature of young players though, they might pan out but they might not too. Risk is inherent. (Smith and Geremi were already ridiculously over the hill by the time they joined so they're not really relevant) Of course everything that can go wrong does go wrong at this club, so young players do tend to fail more often than not. Dummett is a decent prospect and it's absurd to claim that you're already confident what level he'll be playing at ultimately.

    Perhaps we just have different expectations. Not looking like a complete liability at Premiership level and popping in with the occasional goal isn't a bad place for a young defender to be. He's never going to be world-class or anything, but he's hardly a worthless player. He's already much, much better than Ramage was.

    He's fairly promising for his age and gets a lot of undue stick due to the perception that he's one of Pardew's "favorites." I do think his long-term position is centerback.
  6. This game is kind of fun though I feel like I'm watching it as a neutral.
  7. Imagine if Pardew won a cup. We'd have won a cup, but he'd be here for the next three decades.
  8. It's been more exciting than the vast majority of our league games to be fair
  9. Nah, full on Machiavellian mode for me. Pardew out by any means necessary and losing games hand over fist will, eventually, achieve it. Not particularly proud or happy about it but we need this c*** out asap. Getting Pardew out is the endgame, the sooner it happens the better for all concerned. I've been hoping for losses a long time in the league. Just feel like losing or winning this isn't really affecting his position, mongs will just swept the loss under the carpet so might as well win. Yeah, nobody will care about this game win or lose so we might as well win. If anything, Ashley will probably give Pardew a bonus if we crash out.

    We're never going to win 5-0 again, are we?
  11. He'd die sooner. Only reason I'd have him over Pardew. Also, please stop bumping this thread. It terrifies me.

    In a perverse way I wish they'd actually just get it over with and change the name to Sports Direct United so we can just formally disown it.
  13. Honestly this board is probably the only nufc related thing I still care about

    It's not as if losing would have put Pardew's job in jeopardy or anything
