WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 If there even is one small positive to be taken it's that McClaren won't stand on the touchline and call the person in the opposite dugout, who has achieved a lot more than him, a cunt, like. My blood's beginning to boil a little thinking back to what an utter twat Pardew was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 When McClaren left [sJP] some four hours later, having conducted cosy interviews with preferred media partners only, he confirmed to Sportsmail that he was not allowed to speak to the independent press. If only he had some kind of influence in a decision-making body of the club that could change this. Something like a board of directors maybe?

joeyt Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 If anything, I hope the confirmation of this appointment will put an end to my weekly dreams where I encounter Pardew in public - but bottle giving him a load of s***. Ronaldo beats him to an inch of his life then wakes up. Poor form, Yorkie. What was your Pardew dream again? I remember cracking the f*** up. Had a dream last night I was looking after Mike Willamson's dog, the dog had a tattoo. That is all. I had a dream/nightmare last night that I was managing a kids' football team and Alan Pardew was managing the opposition. We just had markers for goalposts and their goalkeeper kept on moving the markers so their goal was smaller and therefore it'd be more difficult to score, I confronted Pardew and he said "I don't care mate, the press aren't going to report this, it's a bladdy kids' game" and I went "Well that's just you all over, isn't it, you c***". He just smiled. He was a right prick like, was fuming. Love how the dream was in the off season when the World Cup was on too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I suspect the club will probably pay some poor wages to managers/staff and they make up for it by dangling the carrot of a long contract. Carver got 1 million for 5 years of contract? 200 000/year seems quite on the low side for the assistant manager of a premier league side, and a quite established one at that.

Unbelievable Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 "McClaren has immediately challenged the club to “deliver” on Ashley's end of season promise to invest in the squad. He said: “When I look at the statement made by Mike Ashley at the end of last season - football fans get disillusioned with what is going on - and what he came out with was very forthright, very driven, very determined. “Great message: 'I am not leaving this football club until we have won something.' That is one hell of a statement to make. I thought, 'Okay. That is great.'" How does I am not leaving this football club until we have won something equate to "I want this club to win something and will do everything within my power to make it happen" FFS? To me, it simply means "this club hasn't won anything for 60 years, so I will be here forever harvesting it, and may even stay in the unlikely event that the club win something under my watch" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

League is everything as far as the manager goes, for clubs that aren't desperate to win the Champions League anyway. If Liverpool had kept Dalglish after 2011-12, where they won one domestic trophy and came runner-up in the other, everyone would still be laughing now.

Scotty66 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I can't understand the ban of the rest of the media. I presume this is because of negative stories published previously? Thing is by banning them,your asking them to publish even more negativity.Think of the audience the BBC get for example,surely it's not a wise decision to tempt them to write bad things about the club.

Ketsbaia Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Positives: He seems quite likeable He's an actual manager He's bringing in actual staff with ability There's an incentive to win a trophy He's our best manager in 7 years This hasn't dragged on all summer (just six bloody months!) Noises about spending serious money Hey, this could and probably will backfire, he could become Pardew II in time. The Ashley regime has a record intentionally misleading us with their PR bullshit. But I'm desperate to like my club again and am willing to give McClaren time to earn my hate. We could've done a lot better but tend to do a lot worse. Let's try and dwell on the positives, even if it's with an asterisk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren't they obligated to speak to the BBC? Going to be interesting to see how they deal with it going forward - in pre-match press conferences, are they going to have Wendy Taylor shooting down each and every question from everyone else?
