JH Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 And yet he has three wins out of five in the league It's possible to think him a fuckwit without considering his record you know. I know, where in that post did I say otherwise? Just pointing out the facts. He is a fuckwit, but I don't see how him being a c*** and saying stupid things in the press, means he'll be "the death of us again". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatwax Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I just wish he would shut the fuck up. He just goes on and on about nothing in particular. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 No apology to the fans over that game. Shows how out his depth he is at the club. That's disgraceful. Remember spotting this comment from Neesy earlier today - was sure I'd read Pardew's apology in the Sunday papers so I thought I'd wait until I got back to double check it. Lo and behold, in print: I'm foaming at the even lack of an apology at all by him still. To the fans I can only say sorry for both the result and the performance, it comes on the back of a very tough run but I am still very disappointed in the manner of the defeat. Doesn't change the result, like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 To be fair, I think Neesy's post was made straight after the ESPN interview, in which he didn't apologise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 if it goes bad Sunday I expect to see plenty of comments in this thread on the absence of Tiote That's because Pardew was stupid enough to think Smith is competent and then completely fucked things up by panicking and throwing on Tiote, a player who should have been wrapped in cotton wool for the derby game. Pardew made some horrendous mistakes against Stevenage and he has his work cut out to convince me he isn't a bumbling twat beyond redemption. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 if it goes bad Sunday I expect to see plenty of comments in this thread on the absence of Tiote It was a fucking ludicrous decision to risk him at all, red card or not. Could have easily aggravated his hamstring injury due to not being warmed up properly, or taken some other injury on that wanky pitch. Criminal stuff, the fact it was immediately before the Mackems game simply makes it worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Turned out to be a pretty regretable decision but the amount of wisdom in hindsight being churned out is quite pukeworthy. Must be a few on here waiting for the Barcelona job as they seem to know so much about managing football teams. Wisdom in hindsight is a very cheap commodity lads.

So knowing that you shouldn't risk your most influential player who is a defensive midfielder in a game that you're 2-0 down in qualifies you to manage Barcelona, brilliant but hardly reducing the number of applicants.

I watched the game in a crowded pub and to the best of my knowledge not one person said anything or complained about the substitution when Tiote came on. In some cases quite the opposite. After the game a few had already started grumbling about what a bad decision it was. It may well be that you had sufficient foresight to criticise the substitution when he came on, but if we're honest, you're in a small minority. Like I said wisdom in hindsight is worth very little, but theres an awful lot of it about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Loads of people said in the pre-match thread that Carroll, Tiote and a few others shouldn't be risked because we need them for the derby. It's not hindsight at all - it's common sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason I could think of bringing him on would have been if we were trying to hold onto a lead, even then it would have been questionable considering we finished with 10 men against West Ham.

Interpolic Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Genuine question: is there a scenario whereby you get beat on Sunday and Pardew won't get lambasted? Fair question, that. I expect a narrow defeat and would be hugely pleased with a draw. Wouldn't have expected any better under Hughton given our relative trajectories since our last meeting. I'm giving Pardew a chance personally, but I do think he's a bit of twat and it'll take a while until I'm convinced, if at all. I'm just delighted we're on 28 points. The job's not done, but surely we can't fuck it up from here (touch wood, soz to jinx, etc). To an extent, it's next season I'm more worried about now.
