Let's not get carried away with all this talk of a top half finish. We just took six priceless points from our rivals but for now the goal is still avoiding relegation.

 

Come on be honest, lose against Sunderland and it'll be right back to our form being "worrying" and how we could "easily slip into the bottom three."

From the 4 games i have witnessed first hand. I have been largely impressed with the set up of the team. I'm enjoying the fact there seems to be a more balanced wing play about the side.

 

I'm enjoying the urgency and the fact that we are trying to play some good stuff at times. Despite it being early days i'd give Pardew an 8/10 for his first 3/4 weeks in charge.

Hats off to him over the last 2 games.

 

6 points and 2 good displays.

 

People will say "well it was only Wigan and West Ham" but weren't those the teams people were saying we need to beat to stay up this season?...

The kind of teams that Hughton failed to beat.

 

Just saying.

He seems to know what he's doing, to be fair to him.

Does that mean Ashley was right? 9 points out of 15? Pretty decent return, considering we are newly promoted.

 

It was the timing that was the main issue.

 

Oh aye, deffinately. Terrible timing, and at the time I was disgusted. But now things halve calmed down, things don't seem to be going too badly.

 

Looking forward to the rest of the season, hopefully Pardew can carry on with Hughtons good work, and takes us into Europe this year at the expense of the unwashed.

We beat WHU away under Hughton ???

 

A fair point, but it was mainly at home that we were having massive issues, the likes of Stoke, Blackpool, Wigan, Blackburn and Fulham we should not be consistently dropping points against at home.

 

The win at Wigan was an unexpected bonus.

I've been impressed with some of our set piece play and our high pressing game which are two things Pardew seems to have brought to the table if you like. He's had a reasonable start so well done etc. etc. Still not convinced though.

I was fine with his team selection, some of the effort has been abysmal.

 

You were fine to see Smith starting? Barton on the left?

 

It should have been enough if the players had given a shit. They've been hassled and harried out of it all day.
