toontownman Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Can see his deal just being a short term one, probably until the end of the season. Still a worse decision than appointing Kinnear. Hughton would have at least done aswell as Pardew will. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest thefishman Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I smell a rat! Why are the bookies even taking bets on pardew knowing they will lose a lot of money? Surely they would stop all betting if it was 100% as most outlets are saying it is? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I smell a rat! Why are the bookies even taking bets on pardew knowing they will lose a lot of money? Surely they would stop all betting if it was 100% as most outlets are saying it is? Because the losses they'll make is minimal and there'll still be people that react to stories like the Klinsmann thing giving them more cash. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughton would have at least done aswell as Pardew will. Out of interest, why do you think it will be temporary? Fools hope. Ashley is normally protective of money if nothing else. Although he is stubborn as a mule, he surely can't be blind to the public and media outcry not only at Hughton's sacking but Pardew's appointment. Makes no sense to be laying down a long term contract on someone barely more experienced than Hughton, but little Ashley does makes any sense. They did also initially mention a transitional arrangement after Hughton's sacking (Beardsley probably, but I can hope). Above all else he knows not to tie down managers for long term deals, he has already been burned. It would have to be someone incredibly reliable and talented to offer said 5 year contract. More than likely Ashley will have the contract rolling on a yearly basis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its hard not to when you cover every single angle without actually putting any faith behind any of them. Pardew could be manager, but you can't rule out someone else! You should expect a manager by Wednesday, or Thursday, if not Friday... certainly before the weekend, but if not there will be a Caretaker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
