Alan Pardew

[Jack Flash]

I'm trying to dig up some quotes but haven't had much luck, I'm sure Pardew made comments about turning Tiote into the "complete midfielder" and if that's the case then it's not unfair to say that Pardew (in this instance) isn't very good at spotting his players' strengths and weaknesses, and instructing them accordingly.  The way Tiote's game has changed since he joined us would appear to back this up, but no - it's another case of players ignoring instructions and doing their own thing.

He said: "He reminds me of Essien, if I am honest, he is that type.

 

"When he attacks teams and runs at them, he could be as effective for us as Essien is for Chelsea."

I think you have to attribute a lot of this season's mess to Pardew. Certain players have been below par in their performances and have at times looked utterly shot for confidence, but when you have a manager who isn't taking a confident approach to setting up his team that's obviously going to be the end-result. Our only game-plan is to cancel-out the opposition's gameplan and try to grab a goal, and frankly that's unacceptable with the players we have. We showed glimpses of a more confident set-up, designed to take the game to the opposition, following the arrivals of Gouffran and Sissoko et al, but that was short lived and we've slipped back into the old negative approach pretty quickly.

 

I'd be willing to give him another season on the back of last years success alone but he desperately needs to look at his short-comings and change his approach.

[Dokko]

Can't wait to see how he manages to put us completely in the shit tomorrow, the stupid cunt.

This is the bit which worries me, if you think he has done absolutely nothing about our set pieces for nearly two years, it just doesn't bode well.

 

I don't think he can change as he simply isn't good enough to.

[Captain Underpants]

A bit OT but..

 

Anyone know anything about Philipe Montanier? Took over Real Sociedad when they where relegation candidates last season and now they are up on fourth place, currently beating Malaga at home 4-2.

 

VI?

Our set pieces mate, Pardew has done nothing about them at all. If he can't change them, i can't see him changing his whole approach to football in general.

There is so much more to come from him if we can get him out of just popping it off safely.

Nice one, Pards.

Look at us in that table with our squad man, it's absolutely unforgivable and Pardew should be gone at the end of the season. I don't even want to risk him next season, because if the shit hits the fan mid season I don't trust Ashley to replace him properly under pressure. It's better we get rid in May and have time to get a new manager in, and then the new manager has time to work with the team.

 

Also Wigan play QPR tomorrow and have a game in hand.

[Guest Dontooner]

How some defend Pardew seems to me even if we got relegated they would think it was injuries and bad luck. Never the managers fault.

That is a fucking appalling comment.  Here was the whole support thinking "thank fuck for that, we've finally got a destroyer in there who can intercept the ball, keep it simple and pass it to the flair players" but Pardew had other ideas about the matter, clearly.

I wonder what Zero thinks of those comments, probably not worthy of criticism.

You know it will be the fault of Tiote for listening.

The uplift with the new arrivals was because Pards hadn't had time to melt their minds with his signature claptrap. Now the virus has taken hold they have become like all the other players: Pardautomatons.

[Wullie]

My favourite Pardew quote is still: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/newcastle-united/9116173/Newcastle-United-manager-Alan-Pardew-has-silenced-critics-to-sell-vision-of-fast-brand-of-front-foot-football.html

 

a young, vibrant side who play what the manager calls “a fast-brand of front-foot football”

[Chris_R]

Whether we stay up or not should not decide if Pardew stays or goes.

 

Relegation can (and by the looks of it will) come down to very small margins. A few points.  Him getting a few more or less points should not determine whether he is our manager next season.

 

What should determine it is that right now we're fucking boatloads of points behind where we should be. It's frankly disgusting that we're fighting relegation with this squad. Our cowardly tactics of trying to limit and stagnate other teams for 90 minutes and nick one on the break or at a set piece (HAHAHAHAHAHA) should be enough on their own to get him the sack, but the results have been disgraceful as well. Yes, we've had injuries. And Europe. But we're way better than bloody 15th in the league ffs and we just look clueless every single game.

 

He's just got to go, but as important as getting rid of him is getting the right replacement. We need someone who can work with Carr and our scouting network and who will take the shackles off a very decent team and let them actually play some football.

[Dr Venkman]

My biggest fear is we go down and don't sack him, we'd be absolutely fucked for years.

I have absolutely no doubts that there are dozens of very technical and savvy managers around europe gagging for a crack at the PL. Looking at our squad is even more encouragement.
