Mick Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 neesy mate, sometimes i don't think it's that your wrong, just that the gods will wait to see what you have decided then make things turn out otherwise just to have a giggle at your expense.

Beren Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I'm fast losing patience with him. Not because he's done a bad job, because he hasn't, but because he's making the same mistakes and not learning from them. Very similar to Hughton in that respect. He's now got 2 weeks to come up with something for Wolves who are on a bit a roll. Saturday 3pm kick off means I'm not too hopeful. Our 3 (winnable) remaining home fixtures are scarily close to the Boro, Pompey and Fulham fixtures we had at the end of the season we went down. Sincere question - to which mistakes do you refer? One of the reasons I think Hughton was so well liked (and evidently continues to be so) was because of his lack of hubris. He saw Perch wasn't working out, and when Simpson was fit again he replaced him (without publicly destroying Perch's confidence either). He saw Smith was shite, and brought in Tiote (and displaced Smith from the team to accommodate him I might add) He saw we needed some more quality and creativity to link midfield and attack and he pursued Ben Arfa. He didn't strike me as intransigent or especially prideful about any of his decisions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Starting to feel dejavue with Pardew from the Glenn Roeder experience. Good start papering over his mistakes. Would like to be proved wrong as I'm usually am. neesy mate, sometimes i don't think it's that your wrong, just that the gods will wait to see what you have decided then make things turn out otherwise just to have a giggle at your expense.

Negative tactics against shit opposition and dreadful use of subs were the main 2 annoyances for me. Some of his starting XI's were a bit too but not all of that was his fault. I'm not having a major pop at Hughton here either btw but he did make mistakes and didn't seem to learn from them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Fair enough. I think he was pretty unfortunate with some of those results incidentally - like the Blackpool game which is paraded about so often - but in which we had 13 shots and they had 4. His substitutions were a bit off though, that's true enough. Having said that, wouldn't say that he didn't learn from his mistakes/wasn't progressing, based on the part of my post you cut (for formatting purposes, I assume) and the balance of things he did address compared to what you feel he didn't.

You might not feel it has a bearing on what you originally referred to, and that's fair enough - it was afterall your point - but if you're looking at whether he displayed capabilities of learning/progression as a manager overall, it still counts.

Playing Simpson out of position is barmy whoever does it. Not quite sure where you're going with this tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 My point was that something you quite sensibly regard as a "given" clearly aren't to all managers - as Lovenkrands has enjoyed continued runs in the team ahead of a fit Nile Ranger/Pardew continues to play people out of position. Hughton also evinced a capability to adapt in playing Barton at RM too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughton also evinced a capability to adapt in playing Barton at RM too. He also enjoyed a run of playing Danny Guthrie there too which was a disaster - all managers make mistakes. It's how they recover from those mistakes is what's important. (like bringing in Routledge in the CH/playing Barton in the PL). Pardew has made mistakes in these last two games. If he doesn't rectify those mistakes against Wolves and Villa, that is the time to worry. He's to blame but he still has a chance to learn from it.

Hughton also played Guthrie out of position on the right of midfield and persisted with it. I'd forgotten about that one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crumpy Gunt Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I think it's fair to say that both Hughton and Pardew are desperately flawed as managers. Its most certainly looking that way. Everton humbled us but should have had 5. Stoke was the hiding we avoided last home game. Wolves next - with our home record? I fear the worst.

Dave Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I think it's fair to say that both Hughton and Pardew are desperately flawed as managers. Neither are/were particularly amazing in this league but there's only one that I felt was capable of learning and improving. Importantly I think the players believed it too.

Guest BooBoo Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Dave- you may be right. The momentum we had at the start of the season under Hughton is long gone. I'm not writing Pards off just yet but the great early season wins seem a long time ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not writing Pards off just yet but the great early season wins seem a long time ago. The loyalty and momentum under Hughton is partly down to the fact that it was his team though - he built it, and they trusted him because of it. No matter who came in, it was going to be hard to get the players on-side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
