bowlingcrofty Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Oh and I thought the "2-0 is a dangerous scoreline" line was a load of bollocks until this season. When we go 2-0 in games I swear Pardew says to players 'sit back and let them have one, it'll make it interesting'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughesy Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Our players are better than 6th. How can anyone defend him after today? Jesus Christ. Our players are better than 6th?? I've heard it all now. Priceless stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A team that is talked about as challenging for Europe should beat the 18th placed team. I guess today was just another one off though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolves were terrible yet they were allowed to come back from being 2 goals behind. Our starting line-up was wrong, our tactics were wrong and the substitutions were wrong.

Parky Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Reading throught the last few pages, I think people are finally getting it about Pardew. Just too much of it is based on percentages and keeping solid, hoping Ba/a.n.other does summat upfront. Hope today isn't the start of the proper slide.

JH Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I've noticed those that are more critical of Pardew offer good analysis of his faults, the team's etc. and basically debate these things whereas those that defend him have little to say other than we are 6th, we were in the Championship 2 years aho or we have a limited squad. People need to clear their heads of such thoughts and look at our performances, his tactics, the way we play football, our team selections and even his subs. Focus on those things and tell me where he is going right and doing well? Good point and true but I can see why many people want to just deal in the absolute end result. After the s*** we've had to put up with over the last 7 years or so many (including myself, even if I'm questioning Pardew more and more) are just delighted to be 6th in the league, picking up results on a consistant basis and having some really decent players in the side. For all the criticisms of Pardew's football the simple argument of 'it's only the results that matter' holds just as much weight and I can totally understand people who take that standpoint. fucking hell. Has to be the first balanced viewpoint in this entire thread Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People need to clear their heads of such thoughts and look at our performances, his tactics, the way we play football, our team selections and even his subs. Focus on those things and tell me where he is going right and doing well? What do you expect after a couple of defeats? There are more negatives than positives so those on one side of the argument are inevitably going to have more strings to their arguments. If we'd come in off the back of a 4-0 win today, those defending Pardew would have more than "Well we're sixth" "Poor squad" etc. We could look at the CC normal time and FA Cup game against Blackburn, 2-2 against Spurs etc. as signs of our grit and determination as a team (we're performing with a never-say-die attitude at times), the 3-0 against Man U to show that narrow, direct tactics can result in a good performance/result, the 3-1 against Stoke to show how our rigid, organised, counter attacking football can really damage a team, Blackburn and Villa wins in recent weeks to show that we can grind out a result even whilst under pressure. The thought that we've chanced our way to 6th and the majority of our play this season has been poor is ludicrous. You can't get to challenging in the top 6 on luck alone, and in spite of the manager. It just doesn't happen. We've been very poor in recent weeks, and the football isn't great, but that doesn't negate the whole season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATB Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 you would think that we played like Barca this season and this was just a game off by some in here. This game was not just one of it kind, in fact we played this poor in a lot of games, even when we have won. and that is why people, like me, are upset.
