duo Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 if it's true it is more of a blow in the fact that to me it shows that the dressing room is losing it , last season they were a team aiming for the sky as high as they could reach as a team, now they are in a scrap and with nothing to fight for ... [/pessimistic] Maybe more of a split in the dressing room than a lost one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 What a back page from the independent ... Colo and Remy nuclear bombs. Pardew and Colo's falling out was clearly much bigger than imagined. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I simply refuse to believe this. Not until Pardew or Colo say otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Zaius Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I'll be fuming with him if he leaves like. He can see were not in particularly good shape, him leaving could put us in serious danger of relegation. What sort of club captain just walks out on his team when they're potentially staring relegation in the face. If he wants to leave, at least go at the end of the season, when PL status isnt up in the air. I'd say he pretty much owes that too us. Hopefully, this is all utter bollocks by shit stirring media.

Geordie Ahmed Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Simply can't allow him to leave during this window, we would be fucked if he went now If he still wants to go during the summer then fair enough BUT we are in deep shit if we let him leave now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Now i know this might have fuck all to do with pardew but im getting a horrible Souness vibe about the club of late. The criticism of young players at the club. The constant stream of excuses for poor performance apart from the manager himself. Dressing room divides. (apparently) Falling out with Star players. Playing people out of position. Tactics and set pieces. etc. Just so much negativity around the club like a dark cloud hanging above at the moment.

Guest firetotheworks Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I'm guessing here, but I think it's pretty damning that the majority would rather keep a player than the manager, regardless of their viewpoints on no one being bigger than the club/the manager calling the shots etc. I know nothing is concrete yet, but I feel like I've absolutely had it. It's not right that we give so much and get nothing but disrespect and misery in return. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Have to say, I was pretty suspicious when no comments came out of the press conference about this issue today considering it was the Journal's lead story this morning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Would like to know the reasons, pretty certain he is a man of integrity and honesty so I'd imagine there is something nasty behind the scenes. The board will no doubt make out there is nothing they can do about it as usual. Fucking shite season and it's fucking everything up, all the foundations that we had from going down will be gone before too long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuy_O Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 After the Sunderland game Pardew lavished praise on him, it looked a very strong relationship then, as good as their was at the club. Something pretty catastrophic must have transpired for this to happen. Find it odd that his father is playing a key role in all of this when it was him who apparently pushed Colo into signing a new contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Put our foot down and refuse, at least until the summer. This is a very cuntish act from the man we least expected it from, that's why I'm worried - there's a poison behind the scenes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felling Mag Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 It matters fuck all if he 'wants' to leave. Fact of the matter is he's under contract and unless this wee club from Argentina are willing to pay what Ashley wants for him or he buys out his contract he's going nowhere. Plus, i think its bullshit anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
durhamunigeordie Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Sorry but if, and I guess it's still quite a big if at the moment, this guy bails on us right now I will lose the majority of respect I held for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Boo hoo. If we're paying him 70k plus a week he can live here homesick, with no sky tv and a 1 all over if we feel like it. He's not going to be homesick, he's been away from home for years and has just signed a new contract, it has nothing to do with home sickness, if true.

alexthegreat Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 "There was a reason for going on the pitch at the end of the game to see Colo," Pardew said, after Shola Ameobi's first Premier League goal for nine months allowed Newcastle to deliver on their rather ill-advised comment that this was a must-win game. "Colo was a bit upset. It was a very little thing – if it was more serious I would say so. It was important I went on to embrace him in that way." "I said to Colo before the game, we're both winners, we're allowed to fall out," added Pardew, after his animated post-match clinch with the South American. "We fell out this week and we're entitled to do that, as the captain and the manager. It was just a silly little thing and I know he was determined to get the result today. "Before the game, I said to him: 'Be our leader, be a captain and make sure they don't get a sniff of a goal'. When you ask someone to do a job and they do it, it's only right you pay your respects to them. You fall out with players all the time as a manager, because if not you're not doing your job. Sometimes I have to say what I think is right – even your most senior players can disagree with it. I have no problem with that. "He was never off my Christmas card list because it wasn't me who had the problem. In any walk of life you have to be a man sometimes and admit when you're wrong and also pay your respects when someone does something right and I thought Colo was absolutely brilliant." A serious falling out between player and manager? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 If he goes Cabaye will be captain, maybe there is a power struggle between the two, colo doesn't seem the most vocal of leaders, Cabaye has a lot of French buddies to back him up. In all honesty think Cabaye being club captain will be better for us long term, but we lose a great defender in the process. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
