Would love Villa to go down and us to stay up obviously, other than that the only other team I hope stays up are Blackpool. Really starting to look like West Ham are going to scrape safety, momentum is with them.

Oh jesus that just depressed me, you hit the nail on the head. There are alot of mediocre managers out there for Ashley to pick next.

Good post, it's there in black and white pun intended that he's not an improvement. And on a stupid sentimental reason I just don't like him, CH commanded respect and brought a bit of pride back to the club after the shambolics of relegation and that seems to have been cast aside in favour of Ashely's bezzie mate.

Would like to see what Best and Ranger can do with a run of games together, see if they can build an understanding together.

Gash. Starting to look like the bad old days of the relegation season. Where has the spirit and the fight gone.

His appointment in the first place was baffling and if results continue the same then surely if CH had to go by Ashley's rules then the same should apply to Pardew. If CH was deemed not good enough the same must apply to AP. Don't know if it's Pardew or dressing room resentment or what but some of the spirit that we had in the Championship and under CH seems to be vanishing under AP.

Someone who agrees. Too much love for them on here, they're vile. Scabs, scabs, scabs...... True Would like Leicester and QPR to come up, beyond that don't care too much who comes up. Would love Leeds to miss out in the play offs.

Means shipping out the crap and bringing in players that can challenge for the starting XI. Smith, Perch, Campbell, Raylor, Guthrie & McLoven days are numbered. 6 in 6 out probably. Says he wants competition for places then follows it up with this corker. How can you have competition for places with one top level left back..................... "I don’t necessarily want two top-level left-backs, but you need somebody who is comfortable playing there," added Pardew. "You need somebody like Phil Neville at Everton, who can play left-back, right-back, centre midfield..." Says he wants competition for places then follows it up with this corker.

We're in a really good position being spoilt for keepers, just hope it's managed correctly and we don't loose Forster or Krul as their both going to be class. Would like to see Krul get a season on loan somewhere if he's not going to get games, needs experience and games under his belt to keep his development going.

still think Shay could do a job them, he's better than what they have for certain.

Arsenal really annoy me, they could dominate the league with some of the players they have but the faults are blatant to everyone but Wenger. Sign Given from from City and sign a poacher to carry some of the burden from Van Persie, if Arsenal signed a clinical unfancy goal scorer who was only interested in getting on the end of some of the passes/crosses they generate then it would be scary.

Er... Yeah got excited

Kuqi monster for the winner.

Best really is over performing, great work.

BBC just said Ameobi struggling with peripheral vison in training with mask.

Yeah all hope is not lost, to use a cliche next goal wins.

By saying team selection you imply there was a team to choose from, ffs Pardew had no options at all. We have no squad at the minute.

What other choices do we have? Well he's selected a winger for the bench. We could bring him on. Guthrie would be more suited to the right than Lovenkrands, n'all. If Guthrie is the solutions then our problems are bigger than I feared

We're in trouble now, big time.

FFS what the hell, wake the fuck up.

Balls

Bestinho, Leon Best is truly fucking mint, he's so good he can score offside lol.

Ba is really hitting form, relegation battle far from over.

Come On!
