Dokko Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Fucking disgraceful from pardew trying to keep this lad on. :lol: Shows the club aren't backing him, thankfully. That's the fans, the players and the board turning their back on him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 No 're-sale value is probably the main reason, but there again he had no re-sale value the last time he got a new contract Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeletor Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 This is probably what GM was referring to. Pardle not being allowed to keep his arse licking brigade and having to keep the players who realise he's a fucking idiot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 This is probably what GM was referring to.

I think having support in the dressing room is a definite factor - especially if it's a big lad like Shola! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 I honestly wouldn't mind Shola staying on if his role was just a good lad to have around, I think he is probably a good influence amongst the squad. The fact he would still be getting a lot of game time is the ridiculous thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest I-Was-There Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Can see a Peter Lovenkrands scenario here, he'll be released then signed back on to "bolster squad numbers" 6 weeks later after being allowed to train with the side in pre-season to aid fitness. Especially seeing as you're only going to have Cissé as a recognised striker when Remy, De Jong and Shola go, meaning realistically you'll need 3 new players just to fill the striking positions alone and you're not all that familiar with signing heaps of players in recent times.

The fact he would still be getting a lot of game time is the ridiculous thing. I hope he never returns in any capacity whatsoever. I really cannot begrudge the lad at all, I think he believes he is good enough and has put his body through a lot of pain to be available. His heart is in the right place and he comes across quite intelligent despite what you see from him on the pitch. I would love him to stay on as a coach if he has the capabilities. I know a lot think he should have fucked off if he wanted the best for the club but personally I don't think it would have changed a thing, we wouldn't have turned around and said "well Shola's gone, better replace him with a top class striker", we would have ended up with someone of the same ability or worse. The lad has been handed an opportunity any of us would have taken and has tried his best, unfortunately that often hasn't been good enough but to repeat the old cliché he doesn't pick himself.

Tiresias Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 If it's true Shola has been one of the group who resents ben arfa he is a poisonous presence and should f*** off out our club. The only redeeming feature of that is that they're just picking up on the manager's feelings. A player who contributes to dressing room divisions is not healthy, perfectly manageable but nonsense to keep around for purely dressing room unity. I suspect the problem is Shola sees himself too much as dressing room voice of the club etc. I think his heart is in the right place but he's not a proper leader.

Wilson Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 So Pardews master plan for moving forward, bench (and probably sell) hba + marveaux...extend sholas stay and make a move for snodgrass. The future's bright, the future's Pardew'd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
