  1. We gave him a chance, he took it, and fully deserved the credit we gave him for it. Unfortunately a new set of challenges have presented themselves and it looks like he doesn't have the answers.

    Pardew has to take his share of the blame that's for sure.  Some of his tactics or lack of have cost us this season.  But that aside, it is the lack of investment that has really cost us.    Williamson has been such a weak link in our defense and I am convinced if we'd sign a CB this season he barely would have stepped foot in the 1st 11 and we would have won more games than we've lost.

  2. I am disappointed - not lest for the fact we were supposedly linked with some good players yet bar Anita got none through the door.  Anita for me is a strange buy, yes we lost Guthrie but Midfield in one area we have reasonable strength.  Can't help but think he was a replacement for Tiote and they'd planned to use money from that sale to fund some of our targets.

  3. And Ian, if we don't finish in the top six at the very least (realistically we need the top four and have known that all summer long), all those signings will certainly be irrelevant because all those players will be out the door.

    If we finish 7th, there's almost no chance of keeping hold of HBA, Cisse, Ba, Cabaye or Tiote imo.

    Agreed.

    :pardsgrin:

    David Craig will no doubt make an appearence at 10:59 to tell us Ashley helicopter is fuelled and ready..

  5. The sad thing is we're only a couple of players short of keeping the momentum going.

     

    Yep. The most disappointing thing for me.

    lack....of.....ambition. 

     

    Can see the likes of Cayabe being offski next season.  He'll want Champions League football.  All the top teams have invested - how Pardew thinks we can compete is anyones guess.

  6. £403, 500,000 spent by premier league clubs. f*** sake man the world is crazy. Still £3mil of that is from us :D wooooo

    ..and yet Pardew bangs on about Champions League.... :idiot2:

     

    What is a shame is that it wouldn't have required much money to give his words some credence.
