Nice end of the year news. Hopefully this is last we hear of him

Probably just the mid point for palace. Fans are just turning, loyal but brainless fans are still either being neutral or blind. The fans just started to turn on one another which is Pardew zGolden trademark. Finally more fans will be more vocal at the grounds, discontent will spread. Pardew will find new job Cycle repeats

For some you need Trust Before Love For some you could just Love blindly. Pardew lied and abused us, i will always want him to suffer in pain for that. He is not irrelevant, he is a part of NUFC history and sadly for me the part that morphed me from a proud fan to hating and ashame one. Sadly made me see how split and weak are fans are as well.

This. If Mitro does improve and be a significant player for us, it would elevate the methods of Rafa for me. Not all managers can improve players like Wenger types. Rafa stock will be really high.

His attiude is brillant but needs to add more to his game. He could convert more headers into goals, or make more space for people. He is quite static most of the time need to use his body and mind better in order to mold himself into a good CF(Shearer was a brainy type not all brawn)

http://www.thisisanfield.com/2016/10/stats-show-liverpool-must-wary-aerial-threat-crystal-palace-christian-benteke/ "Hoof and Cross" Manager who loves tall trees... Would love it if they got relegated under him. Some big score lines too.

In all honesty , we really deserve to go down. We need a fresh start and we still need Ashley to leave. Until we have a new ownership i prefer us to stay down. Thanks rafa

Truely happy he tried to turn us around. God bless his soul. Please go on to win more titles. leavin us is the correct decision for him.

We need to stop going to matches , the attitude of the club is the problem. The fans need some control over the direction of the club again,nothing will change if we continue to support a failing regime. In order to take back the club, the fans need patience. Burn it to the ground and let it be rebirth. We are kind of like Greece now, only a internal revoke will save them from another 20 years of humiliation and hardship.

Well win win in the end, the club needs to be reborn. Hopefully Mike the bastard dies or sells and we can come back from ashes. it would take a miracle to save us now and to be real honest we sort of deserve to go down. Still sincerely thanking Rafa from trying . Mike Ashley deserves suffering for all the abuse he put us through, if only real Karma existed in this world.

Was hoping he doesn't start dumb Taylor anymore. His clumsy curse might relegate is tbh.

Funny how my login name dontooner returns this value on the internet. http://footballburp.com/opinion/forum-thread-of-the-week-newcastle-fans-lambast-alan-pardew-on-way-to-victory/ Made me quit the forum after reading it. Too much wrath made me realize i had to take a step back. Pardew's football was clearly "Hoof and Cross Football". Maclaren's tries but his systems are too slow and predictable( not worse than Pardew's imo). Rafa 1st two games already shows some systems in place. Still disjointed performances but look like can be improved much. What pisses me off the most was Ben Arfa the lad, clearly could have been another legend in the making at this club but Pardew wanted all the attention to himself. We had some very good players with good attitudes like Santon and Ben that could have become the backbone of the team. The fans need to take responsibility as well, we let our club make mistakes after mistakes and yet there is still too little unity to change its direction. We are not a big club imo after this fiasco the fans are too passive and have no direction of their own, the power of the fans are really under utilized at this club. We need family unity and we need to demand certain standards. We are definitely not there as compared to bigger clubs when it comes to fan mentality. I dont demand to be winners or winning 4-3, i just want improvement, steady changes and real communication from the club. None of these are present, i feel alienated from the club. There is something very wrong with the philosophy of the club right now and the alot fans dont seem too bother by it. Its a shame but we let ourselves down when we allowed Ashley to do whatever he wants with the club.

We would have stayed up if he was here. Such a shame really. Someone kill Pardew too after Ashley

Someone has to hurt this mother ****** ... Its a win win situation for us. Survive hopefully we have Rafa. If not hound the shit out of the people running th club. The crowd have to turn at some point.

Butt was much better than Smith like. Not imo, in my memory Butt relegrated us with his irresponsible bad passes and dumb free kicks he gave away. He is exactly like Colback right now, Just plain Steven Talyor dumb.

Surprised how little we improved today. 10% atmost. I am not getting on Rafa's back by any means but we still play like strangers. This is the most diffcult thing to fix, i am sure Rafa will get it eventually but we might not have enough time. We need to start playing like a team if we want to get out of this and now its doesn't look like its moving that way yet.

8 for me. I would have thought Rafa would have got us passing the ball faster and more fluid in smaller triangles. The movement of players and passing has not improved by 10 % imo. Its doesnt look good as we need to triple the amount of game readiness from todays game. We still play like strangers and is the main problem Rafa needs to fix. We need a team. Never had one for the longest time.

He is worse than Alan Smith , he is Nicky Butt. Damn his single minded goal of trying to take us down.

Hard fought draw.. need fucking Colback to never start for us again. Freaking nightmares of Nicky Butt all over again. We need to beat Spurs or Man City now to survive. Rafa has hell of a mountain to climb. Not looking too positive.

Thanks for the ride. This club needs new owners, probably need to stay down for a long for us to get this fat bastard to sell.

Thank you Colback another Nicky Butt that single handly lose us games and bring us relegration.

2-3 to Us. Defenders scoring 2 from set pieces.

Agreed that he defensive 1st also his skillful players are too often put on a leash. Its probably the missing piece in his football repertoire, hopeful he will continue to evolved and become one of the most successful managers the game has seen. I reckon his football has become alot more offensive over the years. Thats just me we would have to see.

If we got relegated Rafa would most likely leave , this base on his last interview. Doesn't matter, its going to be a thrilling 10 games and the bonus is if we do stay up it would even be more entrancing next season.

If Rafa is allowed to spend a reasonable amount of money and replace some of the old guards. Its possibly we can challenge foe the European spots in 3 seasons. HE will be well well loved here no doubt
