She can fuck off for the Pardew comments tbf, dunno who the fuck she thinks she is.

:lol:

Yet another example of him saying stuff that sounds vaguely clever on the face of it to misrepresent his own talent and achievements. Hope him, Tim Sherwood and Dom Littlewood die in a tsunami.

I agree with Kaizero, football was much more interesting in the mid-90s and it's become more and more formulaic and boring. In this country at least, but you could certainly say the same about Italy and maybe Spain.

The guy's absolutely shat himself. I wasn't even very worried but now I'm worried. Bloke is talking like we're fucked when he should be talking about how we're going to blitz the next 6 games.

Wow. Fucking wow man. Guy's heel turn has been fucking epic.

Never was imo. That type of player couldn't be. Absolute star in the highest sense regardless though.

Had no idea whatsoever that he was still playing.

It can be a distraction like, Steve.

The #prayfortim Arena @ St James' Park

That is absolutely fucking ridiculous. So embarrassing.

Eh, we're on about the 20 points comment, or I thought we were. Nothing positive about that comment whatsoever.

:lol: What an absolute prick.

Exactly. It's harder to break down a team that is set up not to be broken down, when you're devoid of a patient but effective game plan that will do the trick. It's not necessarily about being more up for it against stronger sides, it's more about us never developing a style of play that doesn't revolve around feeding off scraps.

Really annoys me that people always put this down to players only giving a fuck against the stronger sides. For years it's been clear that we don't know what to do when the onus is on us to attack. It's really fucking basic stuff tbh. People go on like every game is the same, except some teams are stronger than others. It's no surprise we struggle to break down weaker teams if our best moments are generally around counter attacking stronger teams with pace and guile. Just seems very basic, all this.

Aye we're on the same page then. When you start picking points estimations out of the air in this situation you can guarantee that'll be the headline though - you'd think he'd be smarter than that, especially given he was the England manager.

It's a daft thing to say regardless. It's incredibly negative in a way that indicates he's already lining his excuses up when we need some real bullish positivity heading into a run of seemingly winnable fixtures. It doesn't even touch Pardew's top 100 worst quotes but it's an ill-advised thing for a manager to say. Will hardly have Norwich quaking in their boots for a start.

If/when we sell this guy I'll be monumentally pissed off. Shows I still care a bit I suppose.

He said he'd know where the team was after ten games to be fair We are doomed Would be funny if he came out after 10 games and went "Aye fair do's, we're fucked".

It was fucking ace til we started playing games tbf.

His air of positivity's long gone

Always worked a treat with Shola.
