Mick Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Yeah, 'his' policy. As you've highlighted "his" I take it you think it had nothing to do with him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 I thought Routledge made it clear that Pardew didn't fancy him and was only too willing to peddle him to QPR? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 The appearances Routledge made under Pardew tell a slightly different story. He may not have rated him, but I can't see it being the case that Pardew was happy to see him go to QPR without a replacement coming in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time though Barton was playing well and Taylor was coming back from injury. Maybe Pardew thought we could do without him and put it to Llambias who ok'd it?

Don't see how it would benefit Pardew in any way whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have also been good for Kadar to have been on the bench in a position to come on for Enrique too. If he hadn't have been loaned to Huddersfield that is...

Guest BooBoo Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Some are determined to hang Pardew with the Routledge loan. His performances this year in the PL were mediocre at best and it's very likely that had he not gone on loan that we would still be seeing equally tepid performances that contribute next to nothing. I had high hopes for him, but there's nothing in Routledge's cv to suggest he can cut it at this level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Bit of a joke some of the stones being thrown at Pardew, like. Bit sad, really. He's become a bigger target than his bosses and predictably folk are taking aim. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bealios Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 It might be the fact that I've stumbled upon a documentary on BBC2 called "Wonders of the Universe" which is narrated by Mark Lawrenson that has weirded me out a bit, but for the first time this season I find myself having massive confidence in Pardew seeing out his 5 year contract (more than Hughton anyway) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's become a bigger target than his bosses and predictably folk are taking aim. He 's the manager of a Premier League football team. If he or that team under-perform then he's got to expect criticism. He knew what he was getting into and he's a big boy. He's not immune and he, ultimately, carries the can for results and performances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 And so he should, it's the criticism about transfers that's unjust. Like the fella has a choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had high hopes for him, but there's nothing in Routledge's cv to suggest he can cut it at this level. We let our best back up to Barton go out on loan without replacing him, that's madness and Pardew played a part in it so he'll get stick for it. He's the manager and it’s his job to make sure were capable of fielding a team who can compete to the best of his and their ability. You seem to think that he’s virtually immune from criticism and that's up to you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
