That 8 year deal is about as worthy as a Greggs paper wrapper tbh. Hope you are right. What were the comments Ashley made when Houghton was canned? Something along the lines of 'he wasn't achieving what we expect as a club', certainly that fits Pardew now. Ashley wasn't afraid to pull the trigger then, what's holding him this time? (Our success in europe probably) Houghton. I shouldn't post when i'm frustrated about something, everything goes to shit.

Look at all the manager trouble we've had since Ashley has been here. He finally found a guy that will do what he wants w/o complaining and who achieved a respectable 5th place finish. Ashley thinks he's found his man. Thats why he's got an 8 year deal and no pressure at all. He's going to be here for awhile. Sadly.

And that should be what ends Pardew. He could have argued he had too thin a squad before, but now the results are the same even with the new player. We need to move on, its not working.

Fair enough

lets see Cameron do that Read somewhere that they forced the Kings and Galaxy to go together

The "player" part is the most unrealistic thing about that.

The City fans don't even bother sticking around, you'd think they were down by 4..

commentator just laughing at us now.

It would be nice if we could just watch our team be awful without having terrible commentators to rub it in.

"Dan Gosling will brings some muscle and athleticism to the central midfield"

Might as well throw on the youngsters, can't be any worse than it is..

Nearly forgot that we had a game tomorrow. International breaks after a loss are the worst, I erased the Wigan game from memory so it feels like we haven't played in ages.. Didn't realize that Debuchy and Santon were out either It sucks, we always seem to play well versus City but it never shows up on the scoreboard. I would have thought we could get something here if it weren't for the injuries.. Nice of Yaya to get healthy just in time to score against us again.

we need a Swedish poster to come in here, embarrass both sides and win the argument.

I had completely forgotten about him, hope he does well.

So this is what its like to be on the other side of sketchy ref decisions? I'll take it.

yeah didn't think he was too bad, he put that one pass in perfectly and Benzema should have finished it.

10:30 Start, we get a solid hour of Alexi Lalas talking before the game. Guess ESPN is taking this game seriously.

The second one he hardly touched him at all. Real harsh.

Pogba sent off for two dumb yellows. Was having a good game before that

Good he's a huge liability against Mexico with his temper.

this feels like Pardew protecting a 1 goal lead.. hardly any possession, waiting too long to make subs..

Yeah I doubt a ton of people are spending Friday night watching a blizzard with so much else going on Has the Ref allowed one free kick/corner without blowing it dead for pushing?

Match Commissioner is cold. He ran into the back as soon as it stopped. Fair play to the Costa Rica players for wanting to continue this madness
