Mick Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 About 10 minutes of "Alan Pardew's black and white army" during the second half today in what was amazing support throughout to the team showed how different SJP is to internet forums. Changed the game when he had the balls to make (unpopular) substitutions which brought us the three points. He's got to think seriously about playing Jonas though. I was at the game and I'm on here, the substitutions he made are the same substitutions that work every so often and fail more often than they work. Today was the 11th appearance for Shola in the league, it was his first goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 There were loud boos around the ground when Cisse got brought off. Lots of "Papiss Demba Cisse" chants throughout the game too, seemed to be a feeling that people appreciate the job he's doing for the team at the minute.

Guest tollemache Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Much as I'm sure he was taken off for a sound reason, it's quite heartening to hear that because SJP can be horribly harsh on underperforming players at times. He just needs to rediscover his mojo. Makes me think of Luque, who was so unlucky with his injury, then his confidence evaporated, but SJP's uproar and groans at his mistakes finished the job. The fans had no patience because they were f*cked off at Souness to begin with. Such a shame, he was an incredible talent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJP can be a vey harsh crowd to play in front of but the support yesterday was top class. Loud, passionate and 100% behind the whole team right from the off without wavering. Cisse looked good yesterday and the decision to take him off was an unpopular one. I never read too much into booing though. I've seen it reported in the press that the boos rang out around stadium before when in all probability it's a couple of hundred booing and 51,000 not. The booing becomes the story though.

It was only sung for a few mins by the leazes corner. Heard about 1 or 2 sing it from the back of Gallowgate and that was it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jimmyc84 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 He's just speculating: "It seems to me as if there’s a battle going on between the French and Spanish - speaking players." One would hope that the players who went through the last relegation, (e.g. Jonas and Colo) would take the lead a bit and focus on team morale especially as it was our team spirit that seemed to get us back up from the Championship..

Cronky Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Supermac should know all about dressing room rifts. He was usually at the centre of them. His only evidence seems to be an incident between Jonas and Cabaye. I suspect there is a problem in the dressing room, around Ba. He seems quite a domineering character and Colo doesn't look the most assertive of captains. I don't buy this general French - Spanish rift though.

ExiledGeordie Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I don't doubt there's a few issues between players but most teams have that and its symptomatic of the every work place. A "player war" sounds a bit far fetched and dramatic though and a headline to clearly sell papers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shush Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 It's all very Sunday rag bollocks, but some it is quite specific around naming the camps that are divided. I don't get why they would be divided like, unless it's a support for Pardew split? FWIW, I'm not convinced this has legs to it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
