It's all Chinese whispers. He was probably just talking about pies.

The rumours is that he's been sacked. Twitter bullshit as always. One can hope, mind. edit: according to Mick Lowes, apparently.

It's Curbishley ain't it...

19 ffs. We're being invaded.

If we tried to sacrifice with Ameobi, Jonas and Pardew he'd strike us all down with aids as a punishment.

I don't think a league can be quantified as a percentage. This will need more thought.

What should I say? Within the first 6 tenths in the league? Doesn't have the same ring to it.

"Top 12" :lol: ...in a league of 20. Brilliant mate. Of course I should be more selfish and we should finish top 5 easy. I am dumber than cow. My point is any decent manager will be an improvement and see us perfectly safe, at the very, very least.

I remember when he signed I didn't think he'd see the first team till pre-season at the earliest. He's done OK given he's been chucked in at the deep end by a certifiable mong. I have high hopes for his future but I completely agree that, if possible, he should be left out.

Pardew wanted another striker and he got Gouffran. The problem is he probably included Ameobi in his list of good striking options.

I'm unsure regarding goalkeeping coaches. Elliot wasn't good to start with, Harper is old as f*** and Krul has developed massively well. Distribution has always been bad, true. Harper is a good distributor. Harper is average at that but we're so starved of anything decent he looks good. Also think that's self taught rather than any decent level of coaching. Paul Barron was the last decent gk coach we had and where Krul learned most of his game from.(from what I hear anyway) Fair enough, hadn't realised we'd changed goalkeeping coach although I though Woodman was quite well-respected.

I think Steve Stone gets an easy ride.

Which is why I said he is rubbish at it.

tbf to Mick he said he'd rather have Carver for a game than Pardew. He wasn't suggesting throwing a 3 year contract at him.

Cabaye who isn't even fit to captain. Love how you didn't question the rest of the post

Carver has taken control of one game for us and we won it 3-0, I'd rather take a chance on him than Pardew against Arsenal if we need points. What game was this?

Probably more likely than him getting another assist

Top 12? Top 6 more like. This league has shown you don't have to be an outstanding individual to nail down mid-table. We are a top 6 club, we have a top 6 squad. We sadly also have a s*** manager. Well yes, I didn't want to get ahead of myself

He's a scout, not a coach. His management career was pretty gash. Saying that, at least he knows the players. He could pick the team, get Carver to rile them up a bit, I'd be happy with that. Would this really be that bad an idea for three vital games? I think this is the most astounding thing. For an owner that wants to promote a long-term, sustainable goal with stability, why the f*** has he picked a scout and manager who are at complete loggerheads regarding the style of football that should be on show? Get a scout and manager who want ugly football, or get a scout and manager who want technical, quality football. Says quite a bit about just how in-depth this long-term 'plan' really extends imo. Exactly. We're not just wasting some of the best players we've had in years, we're wasting one of the countries best scouts.
