BottledDog Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Or how he was planning to get Carroll to sign a transfer request. easy, turn him down when he asks for the wage he's worth I don't think it would have taken anywhere near that, maybe just a promise for more than the pittance he was on and a continuation of the line that we wanted to keep him. It's Beardsley all over again. Meanwhile Blackpool manage to hold onto their star player, despite him wanting to go and clubs falling over themselves to get him. But they are such a big club compared to us... That had sod all to to with Blackpools resilience, and everything to do with Tottenhams arseing about trying to pull off one of their special last minute deals.

Guest neesy111 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Fact is I do not want the club paying carroll 50-60k at for 5 good months of good form. The club was completely right to say your not getting a new contract, you signed a new one 2 months ago. Simple as. The club is bigger than any other player, Carroll clearly thought he could be by holding the club to ransom. NUFC will still be here in 15 years time when Carroll is likely to have finished his career or be behind bars. The club isn't blameless with the lack of communication etc, but when Carroll showed he thought he was bigger than the club then we are better off without him now.

I'm sure the fee was agreed, Redknapp said the only thing that stopped it was the Blackpool board couldn't get in touch with 2 directors in time to sign the bloody thing.

Pardew wasn't involved in the wages bit though, Carroll asked him for a new contract. Nothing about wages was talked with Pardew from what has been said.

huss9 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 its ok to judge MA, DL and Pardew on their past and not trust them, but similarly what makes Carroll such an honest straight up trustworthy bloke? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's unfortunate that we're stuck with the first three. If Hughton had still been here I would trust him to accept the situation he's landed with and get on with the job but not to tell lies to back up the Chuckle Brothers. I don't trust Pardew in the same way 'cause he lied the minute he walked in the door. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huss9 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 there's been plenty of comments on the forum about "past form" when it comes to ashley lambiarse and pardew - rightly so i agree. but its been used to judge their actions now and they're being deemed as being untrustworthy. all i'm saying is its not black and white and andy carroll - who i adored - isnt some innocent kid incapable of lying and acting like a conniving c**t. he's no saint.

OzzieMandias Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 If Ashley's going to be here then it's in everyone's best interests that he has a manager who he trusts and he can work together with. If he's going to be the owner, then that's the best chance we've got for stability and progress. True but ultimately it'll come down to whether or not Pardew can handle being dictated to over players, fee's, contracts etc etc I'd wager he's probably on a percentage of the profit if we sell the club for more than x whilst he's in charge which will incentivise him to; a) go along with Mike/Dekka b) stick it out c) forget he's got any morals. Like he had any to start with. This would happen to any manager, at any club, under any owner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just see the turnover of directors within Sports Direct for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did we want Carroll to go? No? Am i happy about it? no Will i be going into the boardroom asking for money? Yes i will thats my job There are loads of examples of this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 He said afterwards that we will need to find a new way of playing to get the best out of the strikers we have got. I would suggest hoofing the long ball against a team with a 7ft defender isn't the best way to go. Carroll got no change out of Hangeland at our place, what made Pardew think it would work with two big men at Fulham? Pardew had no answers the longer the game went on and Hughes did.

Jayson Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 He obviously told them to press the ball which they did well, we didnt give them much time first half atall. We just didnt do anything useful with it. Kept trying to play the ball to the feet of Ranger & Best with their back to goal, theyre never going to do anything from there. We needed to get the ball out wide & whip crosses across goal. The only time we managed it was Simpson & Ranger nearly scored. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Definitely should've bought a louder knocker. It's fucking rank we've ended up with 2 no-hopers and 2 kids as our strike force for the next few games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Pardew is a prick, we've come out of the transfer window weaker and he's allowed that to happen. We've either got the wrong midfield or the wrong forwards, they seem totally incompatible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't believe he's not getting any stick for possibly the most dismal transfer window I can remember and that's up against some very stiff competition. Already begun to decimate both the squad and the team spirit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
