If he's not thick then how does he think excuses like Science are acceptable in anyone's book? Why does he continually contradict himself?

That's a load of bollocks, Pardew isn't clever enough to do a "Mourinho," he never has been and never will be. He's a fraud and you still haven't seen through him. Nah, you're talking s****. Whatever you might think of the sleazy, chavvy, git on a personal level he's still a professional football manager, been in the game for years as a manager and a player, has his UEFA licences. I wouldn't trust him on much, but the one thing he has even half a clue about is football. I don't know if you've ever tried doing any of the coaching badges but they get pretty intensive pretty quickly. What might seem obvious to us isn't going unnoticed by a pro. they're just seeing other things too. When it comes to football I reckon he knows more than message board Mick (and me). I don't think he's as good as Mourinho with the psychology stuff. And I think he's lost some of the players. But I'll give him the credit. I think he's trying. For me the parallels are obvious: find talk points that distract from the players, play down expectations ("we aren't favourites to win the league" while being top of the table), etc. You're beyond help. I'm actually speechless, fwiw I'd have "Message Board Mick" over Pardew as manager any day!

Best play him then. How's he gonna score if he doesn't get chances?

Daily fucking mail, do your research you bunch of fucktards: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2603213/THE-FOOTBALL-GRAPEVINE-Arsenal-join-hunt-Lukaku-cost-spirals-40m-Spurs-look-sell-flop-Lamela-Italy-half-price-paid.html Muppets!

Love it, let's hope the nationals pick up on this, the tide has definitely turned, as bad as it is a loss is the best result we could have hoped for today, turning the screw. I just hope the fat man sits up and takes note.

The hadron collider

Surely the wind comes under the bracket of science? Running out of excuses now so using a thesaurus? Next it'll be gravity or the sun.

Just riding on the tails of Caulkin there though, the only decent journalist out there.

Pardew probably blaming Ben Arfa for the wind after eating Brussel sprouts last night.

Class, love the guy!

5-3-2 4-4-2 3-5-2 5-4-1 doesn't matter what formation he plays, it's the same mantra, 11 behind the ball, keep it tight and narrow, have your midfield cover the flanks and your wingbacks tuck in, soak up the pressure and hit on the break with a bit of Madjik. Attacking formation, flood the midfield, fill the team with left backs and defence minded players?!?!? Where the fuck does he get these ideas from?

Your right I say we do the fucker in and have done with it.

I definitely don't think he's unsackable, the more pressure the better, I don't enjoy seeing us win with this fraud in charge and as we're safe, we may as well lose as I'm pretty much ambivalent to that too. Even if there's only a slight chance he'll get sacked I'll take it!

he's a bit shit isn't he?

"I thought we was the better side up until that first goal." 11 minutes Stoke 1 - 0 Newcastle "We made the subs to have an impact and I thought we lost some of that defensive quality we had, which lost me the game." 78 minutes Ben Arfa comes on at 3-0 down, Stoke win 4-0

We'll not win tomorrow, Stoke are a very, very good side, we can't compete with their financial clout.

if we do I just hope that doesn't change too many fickle minds. He's had his easy ride. Even if we do win it'll be a scrappy undeserved win and Brett will be back to tell us how deluded we all are.

He has got that quality though, that winning mentality.

Thanks for sending. He nails it again but I think Pardew has escaped from criticism a bit there.

Pass it on please.

Difficult, difficult, hard, hard, difficult, tough, hard, tough... how the fuck does he even get out of bed in the morning?! It's always about how great the opposing side are, how fantastic their manager and fans are and how tough and difficult it is for poor old Pardew and his nasty mean Newcastle side.

I applaud their efforts but unless the majority of the crowd turn it's not going to get much attention. Are our home fans anywhere near as passionately against Pardew as the Norwich fans were about Hughton for example? There wasn't much doubt there about what the fans thought of the manager. You get the feeling the tide has/is turning, people are sick of it now, too much of the same reiterated, regurgitated bullshit. It worked for a while but now he's got nowhere to hide, there's only so much even the most gullible can take before he just becomes a parody of himself. As much as would love to see us win, the best thing that can happen now we're safe is to just keep losing, if he puts in a win or two it may stop the train of discontent before it gathers up to non-return speed.

stop hogging it man I want some!

"I think maths was against me, we need to win more points and score more goals and we might finish higher next season." No shit Pardew.

Has anyone else been called over to the technical area for conceding, being the cause of or giving away a goal? Have they FUCK?!? Pardew using him to take the heat off himself again. Who was lambasted for the first, second and fourth goals? Nee fucker. Hatem the escape goat strikes again! So sick of this playground shit man, just fuck off Pardew.
