  1. His command of the English language is too embarrassing to be made England manager. "Weou yeaaa I fowt we woz better than them japs. Many of them were ballers, and we just couldn't get that narrow defeat over the line".
  2. We know it's all talk, but they could at least make it sound believable!
  3. Wait a minute. Prioritize the cups OVER the league? Who the fuck has asked for that? Why do we need a blanket prioritization of one thing over another? So does it mean we'll not try as hard in the league, but dry our damn hardest in the cup? What the fuck is that? Assemble a squad in a sensible logical way, hire a manager with an actual personality and some footballing knowledge, and try your damn best to win every game you're pencilled in for. Fuck's sake!
  4. So moronic to think he made us look stupid as if his upturn in fortune is like some kind of celestial event that comes and goes every so often, and had we just kept him long enough, that purple patch would have seen us win 9 in 13 when it did finally decide to turn up. As it stands, it turns out that Palace were the ones who took full advantage of the pardew eclipse. Utter fucking stupidity.
  5. Got one this morning, and I've only ever been to one match (Dirty forrin from Cyprus before anyone starts on me. My one trip to see us play in the championship against Reading cost me over 3 thousand Sterling).

    "something" Hate him now as much I hated al pards.
  7. Oh I'm inspired now. Like totally.
  8. What Cronky is saying actually makes a lot of sense, but only in the event that Pardew was actually a respectable manager with ability, and if Ashley was a simple thrifty businessman with a desire to run a tight ship. As it were, neither of those are true. Pardew showed himself to be totally out of his depth at managing this club (having been plucked out of lower league obscurity), and Ashley has shown nothing but contempt towards the fans with the many offences he has committed against the club and its standing in the game. In addition to that, we DO have a history of selling some of our best players without replacing them. In theory, Cronky is right. In practice, i'm afraid it's his opinion that is naive and not the "campaigners'".
  9. Already paid for my Wonga logo in internet bandwidth mate. Think that shit's free? Thanks, but no thanks!
  10. Kane is a shoe-in for the YPOTY imo. It's not even up for debate
  11. I think some of it is down to misplaced spite towards those organising it as well. As in "Who are they to tell me what to do, it'll never work anyway". f***ing depressing when the chance for change is being put on a plate for people in a way that requires zero effort, yet they'll inexplicably ignore it and carry on going /moaning. Extremely likely to be the case with folks like UD who can't really give a valid explanation for why sitting on your hands at the match is better than uniting and making a statement.
  12. Oh aye. "Starred" in a 2-0 defeat, as inspirational first team head coach watched on from the sidelines. Who do they think we are man?
  13. Who are you? And what have you done with IanW? Just jokes mate. Very well said.
  14. Maybe it's a cultural thing, but sometimes I don't get this English obsession with relatively small amounts of money. Whatever the price someone paid for the ticket, you could end up losing it, or having it stolen off you. What would you do? Go on a killing spree? Call the cops? And this isn't even a case of a 13 yr old teenager saving up every penny to buy a single match ticket. I'm on about grown adults having this mentality of "I've paid so I'm going", and completely disregarding the bigger picture. UD should look at the 30-40 odd quid cost of the ticket the same way one would look at giving money to charity. You're not going to see a direct benefit to yourself, but it's a gesture for the greater good.
  15. Not a right winger. He's dire overall as a footballer, but whatever good he might be able to bring to the team, he can only do on the left where he can look up with the ball on his more natural side and see the pitch. Awful player anyway.
  16. Glad I chose to watch GoT instead of this rubbish. Watch us win it now
  17. Sorry for quoting this lads but it deserves to be on every page of an al pards thread. Excellent post tmonkey man :clap:
