Teasy Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Souness won or was unbeaten for his first 6 games or something didn't he? Hopefully Pardew does the same, without the disaster following it Pardew first six games manager record truly is appalling. What is it for each team like? If i remember correctly... 1 Reading 2 West Ham 2 Charlton 0 Southampton Checked the Charlton one, he did also get two draws as well for a total of 8 points from the first 6 games. To be fair that's a good start for a club that had only 12 points from the previous 19 matches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering Charlton had only 12 points from the previous 19 games that's a good start. Haven't checked the others though so he might have done shit at all of them. at southampton tbf when he got in it wasnt long until seasons start and there wasnt much of a squad there and he had to build a team as well as try and get the teams morales up due to the points penalty Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without them I see us losing 5-0 or something like that. We need leaders on the pitch - we don't have any off the pitch anymore. Just a grey-heared clown.

We'll see on Saturday. I expect them both to play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliMag Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 I would really love to destroy Liverpool with Hughton's name being sung. Also I am interested to see how Pardew would react to a win. Souness at least had the class to say that our first win under him was down to SBR and he had yet to affect the team. We already know what he'd say if we lose: "A rebuilding needs to be done... blah blah... these types of transitions take time... blah blah... ... confident that a turn around will happen."

ScottishMagpie Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 I want us to stuff them. I want SJP to a like a bear pit with us intermidating the scousers, making it clear our feelings towards Mike Ashley and scaring the shit out of Pardew that he'll shit himself and cry like a bitch and quit.

Doug Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Will our players knuckle down and try to shake us out of our negative mood with a committed performance or will they show last weeks Guthrie like commitment and literally fall over and sit on their arses watching the opposition walk over us while pretending to be hurt. (that 2nd goal was a disgrace) I fear the latter especially if we as a crowd do a Guthrie and give up too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Most important game in recent history? In what sense? A week ago I thought we'd get a point, now I think we'll get beat. We were going to have a shite December whoever was in charge. This is why Ashley should have put his hand in his pocket in the summer and bought more quality and more cover, rather than binning his manager when the lack of squad depth inevitably began to show. You can't have it both ways. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliMag Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 I am thinking this game will be absolute carnage ... as far as fan support BTW. 5:30PM KO... FIVE F*CKING THIRTY! Pardew has no idea what the noise and mayhem will be like during the liverpool game. If I was there I would probably be planning on storming the posh seats, physically attacking Pardew and a pitch invasion... not that I think any of those ideas are good ones, but I surprise myself of what I think is a good idea after 9 pints. Any of those actions are a serious possibility due to the late KO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohmelads Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 I can't see how he will motivate a bunch of bemused and disappointed players for this one to go out and play in front of a hostile crowd and win a game for a manager who has been thrust on them in the space of a few days. Liverpool will be excited for this one because they will sense a rout. Alan Pardew admitted people have called him mad for taking the job, it just goes to show how managers percieve Mike Ashley and how noone bar the desperate would work for him. Just look at the widespread criticism received, no proven manager will ever come near us till he's gone. The question is, should we rally behind the new manager in the hope of short term success or should we look at the long term and take action now by boycotting games? My view is we'll never move forward with the kind of boardroom interference, PR gaffs and insufficient transfer budgets typical of the Ashley regime. Relegation will always be around the corner because of his capacity to make sudden, massive decisions which send the club spiralling. I think most have had enough now and will take the view that we must look beyond the next few results and do whatever it takes to force him out. This was all so predictable the moment Hughton was sacked. I will be hoping for a surprise result against Liverpool but in spite of that I hope there are masses of fans missing from the stands because Ashley so far has acted without a care in the world and needs to know that the fans are prepared to force him out.
