Optimistic Nut Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I know it's an awkward situation and all that, but I see quotes today from Jonas saying he wants his place in the team to be on merit rather than sympathy, yet appears to hold a grudge to Pardew for saying to find a new club...for footballing reasons rather than keeping him just because of his situation. All seems a bit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I know it's an awkward situation and all that, but I see quotes today from Jonas saying he wants his place in the team to be on merit rather than sympathy, yet appears to hold a grudge to Pardew for saying to find a new club...for footballing reasons rather than keeping him just because of his situation. All seems a bit I think the grudge against Pardew is because he had only just come back from his illness and was told fairly promptly to find a new club. He wasn't given a chance to prove that he had recovered and at that point he was still obviously quite emotional about it all. You would think that most clubs would have at least let him see the season out with them whilst he was recovering and getting himself together before reviewing his future. It looks like we decided he wouldn't offer much because of what he had been through so decided to get rid. As a cold-hearted business decision, it was probably the correct decision but there are times when some human compassion is preferable and I think that would have been more appropriate at that point. We are now at a different stage where he is fully recovered and getting back to fitness. Unfortunately for him, he is out of contract at the end of the season and no-one expects him to be offered a new contract - probably not even Jonas himself but with a few decent performances, he might attract interest from other clubs.

Interpolic Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 He went from starting every single week for 4 seasons straight to never featuring, it was a bit dodgy like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I imagine it was all a bit too much for him at the time too like, he's not looking for sympathy now but I inagine he was expecting a bit of a break back when he was diagnosed with cancer, not to be effectively told to fuck off by his boss.

Guest TruToon94 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I can still see him doing a good job in the championship to be honest. He'll only have to wait a year and he'll be back at NUFC soon! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was average for the best team by far in the Championship 5 years ago. He's got nothing left to bring to the table but waning work rate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was average for the best team by far in the Championship 5 years ago. He's got nothing left to bring to the table but waning work rate. No he wasn't, man, at all. He pissed on virtually every right-back. He, like many of the squad, were worlds above that league. He didn't score many, granted, but the goals were basically monopolised between Carroll, Nolan, and whoever the second striker was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Pissed on virtually every right-back? What a load of nonsense that is. Routledge was the only winger pissing on players for us that season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 They were both good on the ball and worked amazingly well together but they never created much between them in any league. Routledge was definitely our most threatening player for the latter half of the Championship, he just refused to run at people once we were promoted.

Was it not one of his last ever games for us when he actually did run at someone, Ashley Cole of all people and had a good game? Never understood the first half of that season with him.
