Agree with this,however.. I can't help feeling that Ashley pretty much loves Pardew right now. In Ashley's eyes we've had the perfect season. Met the target in the league,knocked out of both cups early,no Europa qualification, and sold a player for big money.

Ashley still happy to pay Colo's wages?

Suarez

I think behind the scenes Pardew has lost the dressing room. No way back for him now unless he's handed a whole new squad.

Why the fuck is he wearing a scarf?!

Was out on the piss in Norwich last night,told my friend that he wasn't in the squad so it didn't matter. He was having a dance with her and brought her a drink. She said he's a top bloke who certainly knows how to dance. Shame he doesn't also know how to play LW

Wouldn't be surprised to see him play 90 mins at Liverpool. a) try and get them interested b) Pardew can say "I tolds yer" when we lose 8-0.

Guardiola and Giggs both losing games in the space of 5 days. Unbelievable Jeff.

Quite ironic how they say that. A true "plastic mag" or "1992er" would have fucked off and supported a different club after the shit we've had surely? A "1992er" still supporting the club pretty much sums up that they're not in it for the glory

Didn't we have a lap of honour last season? We certainly had one after finishing fifth.

So much in that article. He's a LIFE COACH. It's his job and I bet he's better at Pardew than coping with things that aren't his forte. The only reason he's in a dark room is to get away from you for a week Alan you thick fucker.

April 11th 2014 - (about Adam Armstrong) "But I have to protect the welfare of the player. Now this player is coming into a team at the moment that is not functioning very well. I’m not sure he is quite ready to start at this level in his own confidence, so I don’t want to damage him in any way." Pardew added: "If the team was performing better, if we were looking like we were bossing games, I think that would be an environment where he could come on. So we’ve got to earn the right for him. April 12th 2014 - Armstrong comes on when losing 0-1 away to Stoke. April 28th 2014 - Armstrong comes on in the 89th minute when Newcastle are 0-3 down away to Arsenal.

From his time as Charlton manager - Whatever happens I can guarantee certain things. I will offer organisation, work rate and a way to play the game that I've always done. Aggressive, positive, looking to win. That's how I will always be."

Can't see this doing Ben Arfa any favours. Pardew won't like to be seen as backing down due to his "I'm the king" ego. You would think he'd play Ben Arfa in an attempt to at least get the fans back after the last few weeks. But no,it's Pardews way or nothing. Cardiff would be the perfect time to bring Ben Arfa back in the side,a struggling,under pressure team who would have nightmares trying (and failing) to contain him.

Has Golfmag posted recently? I'm sure the last post I read from him he was quite supportive of Pardew.

Ba was on fire first half of the season. Then Cisse turns up and starts bossing the place. Pardew then decides to fuck around with the formation just to keep Ba happy and the rest is history....

Think we'll beat Cardiff. Might put a bet on us to soften the blow if we do. Betting on Cardiff and losing,whilst Pardew eases some pressure would send me in tilt mode.

Cardiff. More pressure on Pardew,more pressure on Sunderland. Would feel a whole lot better than 3 points added to our tally.

Christ that's almost half a season man He could and should have added the month before that too. Did it from then as that's when Cabaye left but..... http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff512/Scotty6682/scott2_zps9d5e86eb.png

I really want to watch us play Lyubimets. Put my house on a 0-0 draw.

Pardew seems to think all this fan un-rest has come from the past 6 games,and that a win on Saturday will suddenly have everyone dancing in the streets singing his name. And people call Toon fans deluded.

Ben Arfa must be loving this

Obertan in the squad "on merit"
