Now is not the fucking time to be LOOKING or CONSIDERING options!! Make it fucking happen! We've had ages to look and consider our options, a transfer window that looked so prepared and good in the beginning turned out to be piss poorly planned and shocking in the end as always, as was our preseason. Im not in a mood, sorry!

Our manager is the new Comical Ali :idiot2:

 

Has been right from the start

 

Pardew "I need more players"

 

Llambsarse "Tough shit, make do with what you've already got"

 

If the above conversation happened what could Pardew do about it? Resign? Not a chance

Until we actually get the bodies through the door this is the sort of grief him and his bosses are going to get. It come with the territory and the more games we play while these "negotiations" drag on the worse it will get.

What exactly has he said wrong this time like?

 

Presumably that we have no replacement for Enrique tied down yet. It might not be Pardews fault (almost certainly not), but it is a bit of a joke (wait... no... a monsterous fuck up) considering the warning we've had.

He can't win. Give reassurances we'll sign a striker, slated. Don't give reassurances we're signing a striker, slated.

 

He could win.

 

He could try signing a striker.

 

do you think the manager goes and personally signs the cheques?

Typing like a monkey and trolling aside I'll give my two pennies worth on the situation Pardew finds himself in.

 

I don't know if the bloke is being fed a yarn or whether he's a bare faced liar but what is clear is if it wasn't the case before he is now fully aware of the situation he finds himself in. He has to delicately balance sensibly investing the shoe string budget the higher ups have provided him with while trying to convey sufficient ambition to fans and players alike. I think the tension between the two means both are not possible and therefore it's difficult to take his word too literally. Personally, I honestly think he was burnt by the Carroll deal. Of course it's just speculation but he made promises about Carroll and the cash generated from his sale and he was sold contrary to those guarantees. I now think he is reluctant to commit to promises he may not be able to keep due to the actions of the board. He knows they won't invest substantially so he's not promising too much too soon.

 

We've bought some good players this summer. Things of course could be better still if we throw a bit of money about but Pardew has little control over that. He has to progress with the money he has been given. It's difficult to tell how the league will pan out this year but if it's anything like last there will be a pack of teams in the middle filling anywhere from 8th-14th, last season we were one of those sides. For me at least, progress this season would be avoiding that melee and convincingly finishing in the top half ala Everton. With the size of that squad it would require good luck on the injury front but if we can keep our best 13/14 I see no reason why we cannot achieve that.

 

Of course, the jury is still out on Pardew's managerial ability. Last season he took over in a difficult situation and managed a reasonable finish with an extremely limited strike force and he deserves credit for that. Hopefully the addition of Ba and another will go some way to addressing this and this will see us push on a bit. Looking at us and looking at Everton I see no reason why we cannot give them a good run for that seventh spot. Of course Moyes is a far superior manager to Pardew but if he can somehow keep the camp fit, happy and confident we might just surprise a few this season, despite the chronic lack of investment.

 

 

Posted this a while back but saves me responding to the above.

Pardew urges Toon rethink

Magpies manager feels some still need to adjust expectations

Pardew: Admits Newcastle are no longer the spending club they were

 

Manager Alan Pardew has stressed that Newcastle United must re-evaluate their status as a club.

 

Pardew has had to get his head round various contractual issues from the previous regime, which have resulted in potentially both Jose Enrique and Joey Barton leaving the club cheaply.

 

Newcastle fans and some high-profile players have grown increasingly frustrated at the lack of a big-name striker being signed following Andy Carroll's £35million move to Liverpool in January.

 

But gone are the days of Newcastle splashing the cash, with modest signings such as Yohan Cabaye, Demba Ba, Sylvain Marveaux, Mehdi Abeid and Gabriel Obertan reflecting owner Mike Ashley's new prudent approach.

 

And Pardew admits that is something everyone involved with the club will have to get used to.

 

"Some of the problems I have inherited that have gone on before haven't made it easy, and I have picked up some history of what has gone on in contract negotiations et cetera," he said.

New understanding

 

"It's very, very important that we try to build a new understanding of the club going forward together.

 

"It's documented that the club needs to be sustainable from its own funds, and that put us in a category of clubs that probably we are not used to being in.

 

"Maybe 10 years ago, we would be able to rival the Arsenals and Manchester Citys and Chelseas of this world in terms of transfers.

 

"But that looks difficult at the moment until such times as we grow the club and show on the pitch that we can bring some success, then hopefully keep our better players and build on that.

 

"Unfortunately, the business of this Premier League makes it difficult. These top clubs can come and grab our players and until such time as we are financially strong enough to hold off sovereign states, we are going to have a problem."

Enrique medical

 

Enrique headed to Merseyside on Thursday to discuss personal terms and undergo a medical with Liverpool.

 

Having had to admit defeat in his bid to keep hold of Carroll in January, Pardew had signalled his intention to tie up Enrique, Barton and Kevin Nolan to long-term deals.

 

But both Enrique and Barton rejected the terms on offer while Nolan dropped down a division to join West Ham this summer.

 

Asked about the Enrique situation, Pardew added: "He was in the last year of his contract and he made it clear he didn't really have any motivation to re-sign here.

 

"He's got the move he wanted and we have to move on, and we will."
