Mole_Toonfan Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Mark Douglas @MsiDouglas Clarification on the 'we need 2' point: two to avoid relegation. Am sure the squad will be strengthened beyond the 2 senior recruits but they'll be more likely to be Haidara type young players. My info is a chance of more than 2 senior recruits... One would be a start tho! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 All he would end up with is a different set of people having a go at him, for a slightly different reason. And I don't think you can judge the tone of his interview from a tweet by George Caulkin. Anyway, who cares. Who cares ? Well i do, i'm not talking so much about what he's saying just how he is saying it. I want my manager to be upbeat, especially in adversity. I want him giving the team enthusiasm and guile, to go out and win against the odds. Not what we have now, a fucking dour, useless tactically clueless idiot who is sending the team out as if they are already beat. So yes i fucking care. I was more saying that the debate about his quotes is pointless. Everyone is set to whinge, even if we'd signed Remy it would only have put it off until we next have a weakness in the squad, then it would start up again. I agree with you that I want Pardew to be sending the team out motivated, but we were talking about his quotes RE transfers. Ahh right sorry mate, tbf i can't stand the bloke now so i'm going to be critical of him, and if i'm honest it really has nothing to do with transfers, because despite my hatred of him, i feel he isn't and will never be in charge of them, whether we get players in or not will not be his fault. That solely is at the feet of the board. I'm not even that bothered about the waffle or his spivness, It's the shocking football and completely clueless tactics. Hate the bloke for it now, i have and always will, hate any manager who sees long ball as acceptable football. When i say hate/hatred, it is solely about football and not Pardew the person. I save that for Hippo Head who i just find revolting in every way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Find myself less and less interested in who we sign and don't sign. I just want us to play games and win them ffs. How can we be so pessimistic about beating Reading? Even with our injuries and small squad, surely we have too much for them? Fucking hell Pardew, sort this shit out man! That post could have gone in any one of several threads. It's just the overriding feeling for me. We need the games. We need the points more than we need the new players, if that makes any sense.

Dave Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Whether you believe Pardew's words or not, it's pretty concerning that we're now at the stage at which the manager is publically saying 'buy me two players or we're going down'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting in someone like that Thauvin lad would be good, but we need these kind of recruits now not in the summer, so that we can keep the likes of Sammy, Ferguson, Shola, Williamson and Obertan out of the team, they're just not good enough at the moment/ever. That's on top of getting in a couple of long overdue "purples". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my biggest concern - if he doesn't accept that his tactics, set piece routines, team selections etc. are even partly responsible for our league position (which he clearly doesn't) then we're in big trouble. Even with our injury problems we've usually put out teams that should at least be giving the opposition a decent run for their money but we've looked clueless, gutless and have been rolled over convincingly time after time. Pardew's demeanor and comments seem to suggest that he intends for us to carry on using the same tactics but that we need 2 new first team players to make it work? If we stay up this season it'll be in spite of Pardew, not because of him. TWAT! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Pardew man Can't imagine how he felt after we got gazumped by QPR for Remy. I reckon he would have just about taken a swing at Llambias. Pardew is cracking up. "2 or 3 players, no 3 or 4, 1 or 2, 2 for 1, 1 for all, all for one ... no more relegation!" What is the significance of these numbers anyway? Really needs to stop talking about players we're after in that way. It's embarrassing and depressing the way the numbers start to dwindle as his confidence plummets with each passing day.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I can't believe that anyone thinks that Pardew, Newcastle manager Pardew, doesn't think he's responsible for how the team plays, because George Caulkin tweeted that he wanted 1 or 2 players to help us stay up. I hope something happens soon, because the level of discussion on here has reached absolutely frightening depths. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
