Inclined to agree, which is infuriating given that we could have done with a specialist RB, centre half and/or winger-type forward instead.

Seems to me that he's not playing ball with the versatility thing. Perch is better than him at CM, and he doesn't want to play RB, so he's on the bench. That's how i'm seeing it, anyway. I'd have him at RB every week tbh. I find that very strange then, Pardew will/should have known that this would be an issue if that's the case. Quite often there are only 2 central midfield spots to be had and you've got Cabaye, Tiote, Perch and even Bigi and Jonas ahead of him in the pecking order. Surely he'd rather play than not play.

What's going on with this guy, why's he not getting a game? Given his versatility and the fact that not many of our lot are setting the world alight you'd think he'd play. Amazed that Simpson has just strolled back into the team like he's one of our most important players.

Personally I think most of the comments are borne out of frustration at looking forward to the match every week and being repeatedly disappointed by the performance. The "8 more years" idea is quite relevant to me as I can see myself losing interest a bit if I'm watching shite like that all the time. I'm starting to think that the whole thing is an elaborate plan orchestrated by my girlfriend to stop me watching so much football.

Fucking hell!

Fucking hell, game's actually getting really dirty now.

You honestly agree with a statement saying Pardews now a joke? Im bloody sad if thats now our fans viewpoint after a poor start. And people were amazed hes our 3rd longest serving manager in recent times Whats amazing about it? I'm not arguing with someone who doesn't appear to have eyes. Eh? How is that reply relevant to writing off a manager due to a run of poor performances after a season of results? Class reply. You have a track record of completely disregarding what every f***er is seeing on the pitch, that's what I'm getting at. What did you think of today's performance? When have i done that? Ive mainly just argued towards people keeping faith in Pardew/Our transfer policy as most have been losing that. After our previous ability to turn over managers, i just want some continuity & people to stay behind what we're doing. Today we were decent first half & poor the 2nd. Jonas isnt turning up, Cabaye isnt influential enough & Ameobi had key moments but was poor outside of them. We dont look fluid atall, obviously i want that sorted like everyone does. And it's nothing to do with the manager? Players do what they're told, on the whole.

I think that's the first time I've seen a player get a second yellow for diving.

Dunno about you, but it's happened so often AGAINST us, it tastes all the sweeter when an undeserved winner goes in off the players back and he knows nowt about it. Actually TBH we've had a bit of luck so far this season. Never really got going, but we're doing OK. Signs are promising when we get so many "lucky" wins or draws You should really support Liverpool, Phil.

It's on telly. Sod it, I'm hibernating.

Fuck's sake, had no idea this was our next game. Not optimistic but the way our club is, perhaps this is the year we beat them there.

He's a joke in the sense that he talks a completely different game to what happens on the pitch, as if he has something to hide. It does seem a bit harsh calling him that but at the same time the football being served up is - on the whole - absolutely crap, and I'm bored of watching it.

I did think we were alright first half, played some half-decent stuff at times.

Holy fuck, Jayson disagreeing with the vast, vast majority.

Great post. What concerns me the most is when those fantastic individuals inevitably decide they're fed up with it.

I think we were about 30 seconds off the crowd booing us off there btw, it was one of those performances.

Obviously really happy that we got the 3 points but it would be nice if we played well now and then.

Fucking hell. Get in.

Everton away, you mentalist. Everton away. Youve got pretty low standards if your counting that as a good performance. We could have been 4 or 5 down at half time. Maybe your phrasing was misleading, I thought you were saying he hadn't improved the way the side had played during the course of the game once? Otherwise what the hell are you saying?

Everton away, you mentalist.

Finally waking up here.
