If Ashley's still at the club when that happens, then we're f***ed basically.

 

Why? Who would be next? Dennis Wise?

 

Point is Pardew came in knowing exactly what his role and situation was and accepted it when he signed up for it, the day he gets sick of it is the day we're fucked.

its a disgrace that we are less than 48 hours from kicking off in our first game of a new season and the puppet of a manager comes out with "We are trying to focus on incomings now not outgoings, priority is left back and a striker" in his press conference.  We went into the summer with £35m supposedly to strengthen the squad and the priority 3 MONTHS AGO was a striker and a left back.

 

The club is an absolute joke to be in this position on the eve of a new season and just sums up the farcical pre season that we have had.  Sunday league teams will have planned their new seasons better than NUFC have.

I am not a fan of Pardew and I am still not sure what to make of him.

 

Pardew got a lot of credit for last season but I am not so sure whether he just got away with it.  When I look back at last season, all the best games and results came under Hughton.  The two exceptions were the Liverpool game which the players (and Pardew) said was down to Hughton and the Arsenal game which could be argued was down to Barton and Nolan.

 

Looking at the second half of the season, yes we picked up points against some of the teams where we had been dropping them in similar games under Hughton and we missed Carroll and suffered injuries but we had some very poor games and average performances.  I know we had some very poor games under Hughton but post the Arsenal game, we were just very average.  Pardew made strange team selections against Stoke and Everton and his subs cost us the game against West Brom.  And I think the defence (his speciality) became poorer as the season went on.  Did the team just run out of steam in the end?  Whether Hughton would have done better, who knows.  However, it is now Pardew's team so it will be interesting to see how he gets on.  And he better not come out with any excuses as he has made his own bed.

Bonus dispute has been source of much disquiet behind scenes at #NUFC - symptomatic of distrust. Resolution a positive development.

Good news I guess. Says a lot about the attitudes of the people at the top though, they simply don't get it.

Maybe they've used the Enrique fee to pay them.

Bonus for what?

 

everything probably,  keeping clean sheets, scoring goals, winning games, progressing in cups, avoiding relegation and god forbid winning something!

or todays players....turning up, smaller bonus if relegated, humiliation bonus if not selected, travelling time, goals bonus (in game,regardless of which team)

This has been one of the reasons that the players have been unhappy.  Hopefully, it will mean a happier dressing room.

Wanna shove me fist into Partridge's face when he comes up with that "It is what it is" and "we are where we are" shite.

SKY presenter leading into Pardew interview quoted Pardew as saying "all the money from Jose's sale to Liverpool will be invested in the squad" followed swiftly by "we've heard that before"

 

Pardew either needs to shut the fuck up or face being a bigger cunt than he's already proved himself to be.

Of course it will all be invested - 1 million transfer fees and the remainder going on signing fees, agents fees and five years wages up front.  Honest.
