The College Dropout Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 When we lose it is because of Pardew and when we win it is despite him. For some people at least, and those people who still have time for Pardew are wasting their time explaining why. I know this feeling well from explaining why I still had some support for Mike Ashley. Fully agree with this. This is so deep-rooted i'm probably going to leave this thread alone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonpack Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I don't think there's going to be that much to talk about from now until the end of the season TBH, except Europe and maybe HBA's return. Certainly nothing that will change anyone's opinion of Pardew either way. So the same debate will continue to be had endlessly. Sometimes we'll win, sometimes we'll lose, like in a normal season. After a defeat the mood on here will be more negative obviously, after a win it will be bearable. Everyone is pretty much set on their opinions of the manager. When we lose it is because of Pardew and when we win it is despite him. For some people at least, and those people who still have time for Pardew are wasting their time explaining why. I know this feeling well from explaining why I still had some support for Mike Ashley. At best he is a mid table manager, he is a reactive manager not a proactive one most of the time, and when he is proactive, his negativity generally means his changes make us more defensive. With this squad, that the owner has assembled, it is criminal that we don't maximise it with a better manager. At best (so far) we were 5th, with a shot at 4th Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Well why don't you try and explain exactly why you "still have time for Pardew then"? How his management has won us games this season etc? I'm not exactly against him personally, it's just patently obvious that there are many managers out there who could do far more with our players than he can/has, whether or not we would be able to get them, or if the owners would even have the sense to choose the right one is a different story. P.s most people were nothing but complimentary to Pardew despite out loss to Swansea anyway, if we play like that from now on I'm sure people will warm to him pretty quickly.

Deuce Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Our change in fortune has everything to do with our roster overhaul, and not some magical potion concocted by Pardew. He's still prone to the same boneheaded roster decisions (hello, Jonas) and continues to make questionable substitutions. Still not convinced he's a good manager.

Deuce Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Nah, he'll always be an average manager. Nothing more, nothing less. Except we have a squad capable of much more than average. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I don't think he's a very good manager, nor do I hate him. Have said before why I don't think he is very good and have also praised his good points. I don't see why both points of view can't be discussed without the extremism.

I have no idea which managers would want to manage Newcastle or not so anyone I suggest would be pointless I think most managers with a track record of playing expressive attacking football would be a better choice though, preferably from the continent. Pardew simply isn't amongst the top bracket of managers imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
