Neil Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 neesy you look like an Oxford graduate compared to this guy. We've lost 3 league games in almost 3 months ffs. How many have we won in 3 months? 4 with 5 draws. With 2 of those against teams occupying the top four. Yet we won two against Top four with Hughton You're quite a miserable young chap aren't you?

Yet we won two against Top four with Hughton Yet we lost home games against Blackpool and Stoke. Its a futile argument, I was a Hughton fan, but we seem to be a bit more savvy under Pardew, not sure exactly what you've got against him when your football team is doing well.

Mick Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 4 actually, we're much harder to beat, part of that is down to team spirit, part of that is down to organisation which is credit to the manager.

QBG Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 What's with the influx of incredibly s**** posters? Seriously, man, Ethi opened the floodgates. I don't look so stupid now for once on here. neesy you look like an Oxford graduate compared to this guy. We've lost 3 league games in almost 3 months ffs. What a scathing compliment. I actually like neesy, really nice lad away, actually stayed at his before one of the Reds v Blues games.

Meh. Next season we'll see lets be honest no decent signings despite his word that he word that he would doesn't forbode well.

madras Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 good call to bring on taylor after the other taylors sending off. many would've gone 4-4-1 but going to three centre halves meant we still went after the game.....well done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I'm with EastEndGeordie on this one. Pardew's past record is everything even if he has learnt from his mistakes it doesn't matter, it's whats in the past that's important. He clearly isn't good enough, the fact we're only in contention for Europe is bitterly disappointing. Hughton would of had us in the top six no bother.

That will give you some background info regarding Pards. And I disagree with you. He got plenty of competence. Every player that has played under him has pointed this out. It's his ego that has hurt him in the past, not lack of skills. Give him time..SAF was mm. from being sacked from Man U. That trophy saved him. So margins between success and failure is minimal sometimes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. And Pards has coped with a shitload of injuries, playing every match (except Lpool) without Carroll. Tiote's suspension was also costly, although imo I think he never should have played him.. But Tiote himself made that tackle..not Pards Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 It's as though people can't praise Pardew without being told that means they obviously thought Hughton was shit hence were pleased when he got booted out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weezertron Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I don't know who I prefer between Pards and Hughton. However, I'd take Pards+Carver over Hughton+Colin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny Green Balls Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I spouted enough vitriol toward Pardew, and still feel it was justified. However, we can only go on his tenure here. The results and the performances both have improved for the most part. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
