WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Hughton in suit = sharp as fuck Pardew in tracksuit = 40 something unemployed man that buys booze from the offy for underage kids when not in Ladbrokes waiting for them to weigh in at Newton Abbot.

toontownman Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Seriously an appointment that actually makes hiring Souness look like a good decision. Jesus f***ing christ, this has to be the singlemost idiotic post ever made in the history of N-O. Even if Ashley did something utterly retarded (what, again?) and appointed Gordon Brown as the manager of the cub, it could never make the Souness appointment look like a good decsion. Unless you're being WUMtastic [/Davros] No, not really, Pardew will never acheive half of what Souness has. Be aware Souness was one of the worst appointments I have witnessed. Pardew would be worse IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frazzle Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 I take back what I said about Bird before, what a crap article. The board wants someone who is more than a coach? Didn't Keegan get told off for this? And the board are now crediting themselves with the Ben Arfa/Tiote signings, remember Keegan getting blamed for Xisco after he left?

Big Geordie Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Also I wonder if 5 years will be time enough for him to claw back the cash from the club, that I believe he wants? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Article is complete tripe. He would never hand out such a long term contract after the past couple of years. His decisions involving money arent as stupid as his footballing ones. Have to be a pretty big, reliable name to be handing out that kind of backing.

Easy - TV Money, Merchandising, Season Ticket Sales, etc. As long as the cash keeps rolling in (and we stay in the PL), he can take it out when he likes.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 if that happened, in recent weeks he'll have handed out 5 year contracts to Ranger, Williamson and Pardew. The fat fucking cunt has obviously got an affinity with the number 5 as its how many pies he scoffs in one sitting. Fucking prick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy?, IF we could possibly make £10m profit a year, a big if with fans started to disapear and likely more of them off after this latest shit storm (as well as another possible relegation now which will cost him even more), then he could maybe make his money back in 30 years time.
