Elliottman Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Hasn't it already been said? We were linked with him ages ago, just a rehash. Aye, there was even a story that said the deal was already done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 One or two usually means nobody or less. Fuck off. And this is why i'm beginning to really dislike Pardew, i'm sure he mentioned recently that we need to sign 3 or so. I could be wrong but it always seems to go, we need 3, then we are working on definitely 2, then we hope to get 1 through the door. Its always bullshit and by now to keep trying it, he must think we're thick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Ryder @lee_ryder AP touched on transfer funds saying: "The board have been supportive" Guessing this means big club interest in Tiote has waned then.

Skeletor Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Best case scenario with this regime is expect nothing, fear the worst and any thing better than that is a bonus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I'd probably settle for 2 players, as I know we're going to get no one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember it more from the summer, it just him saying we hope this, we hope that and what we get is fuck all. Now obviously we dont know whether the board let him down and he's making the best of what he's left with, then he has to tell us as best he can. My advice would be to just shut the feck up and say nothing about transfers, just as he said he would a week or so ago, now he's already spewing about bringing in at least 2. See my point.

Guest neesy111 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Didn't he say though he thought we'd be significantly stronger by the end of January. One signing won't do that imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger Kint Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 He might as well just stop doing pressers, getting to the point where anything he says gets over analysed on here. I bet if he ignored all questions on transfers he would still get slated by someone We all know what he says is largely bullshit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time I pay attention is regarding injuries tbh (and even then that's sometimes spin). Presser's are just hot air most of the time from all managers.

Pardew is the worst manager for this I can remember though. Souness, Allardyce, Kinnear and Roeder were never as bad as Pardew imo. Doesn't help we have an incompetent local paper that doesn't question him properly on transfer issues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't help we have an incompetent local paper that doesn't question him properly on transfer issues. Really enjoyed listening to Hughton's interviews. The man always oozed class and dignity, and spoke like a proper football manager. Never allowed what he said in the press to be used as political spin by the tabloids/boardroom/fans/national media.

BottledDog Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Very difficult to keep track of what he says when he is contradicting himself from one day to the next. Does he? The main gripe seems to have stemmed from the perceived contradiction that where he states how he'd like us to play but we get shitball on the pitch, or when he took positives out of a window but now calls on more investment in the next window. Fair enough, make him look a bit of a twat, but I have sympathy with how changes in circumstance can have an effect. The rest of it seems to be spiralling off into simply examining to death every off the cuff and often out of context quote, and looking to trip him up as far as I can tell.
