Don't think calling Stu is a bannable offence though, nor should it be. Post a picture of a vadg or something mate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conjo Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Oh noes, the SMB has become this thread. All south of the wearyside appear to be infected. First sign: calling out other 'fans' for having an opinion. Second sign: declaring war on each other's letter boxes and jaws. Do you think Pardew enjoys a few after work drinks on a Friday too? A chance to forget about his worries and romance a few unsuspecting females...? Ian doesn't have an opinion in this thread, he sits in here fielding criticism of Pardew like he's his spokesman. As much of a moan as I can be, I'm generally quite astute at spotting trends in people's behaviour in life quite quickly, which is half the reason I called you a cunt early doors. It was because it was so fucking massively obvious that you are a massive fucking cunt. Plenty of people seem to like Ian's act though, it's an eye opener for sure. Can you ban me please mods, I just called Stu a cunt and am disheartened by people coming on here day after day doing nothing but playing devil's advocate for their own amusement while offering no valid opinions of their own.

But winning today won't make up for last week, though it'd be precious points in the relegation fight this rancid excuse for a manager has somehow got us into.

merlin Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 He's been very fortunate with how the results have fallen in terms of fan reaction: - Last minute winners send a crowd home a lot happier than scoring in the first minute and winning 1-0 - Home results seriously influence fan reaction whilst away ones barely scratch the surface. Certainly not the majority but I know ST holders who pay almost no attention to away games and certainly don't watch them - We've lost more home games than the vast majority of teams but also won more. For most people at home in a lot of games, a draw might as well be a defeat so it can feel like our home form is rosy when it's anything but - a couple more draws and we'd be nearly home and dry - In my experience, there's usually some sort of watershed desolate performance at home that is the one to turn the crowd but not against the mackems or a hammering off Man Utd, it's typically a feeble attacking performance in amongst a bad run against a side that everyone has expected to turn up and beat. For Robson it was 1-1 against Wolves (again, at home a draw and defeat nearly interchangeable), for Souness it was 1-0 against Blackburn, Roeder had 1-0 defeats against Sheff Utd and then Man City whilst Allardyce's home draw with Derby did more to see him off than any other result (although a couple of ludicrous hammerings off Pompey and Liverpool didn't help tbf). Even two of the greatest home wins in our PL history couldn't save Hughton from f***ing idiots baying for his blood after a couple of insipid home games, nor could winning at Arsenal and Everton. Yet apart from Reading (major discontent immediately followed by a load of new signings at which point most people shut up), Pardew has somehow managed to skate round these results. Swansea and West Ham, the form wasn't terrible and a couple of injuries got him a pass before QPR, Wigan, Southampton, Stoke and Fulham all seen off at home despite being largely s**** in every game. Maybe I'm over-analysing but I reckon he could easily have more points on the board and yet be under far more pressure. Couple more away wins, couple of home defeats having become draws but also a couple less extremely late winners at home and far more would have turned against him imo. People are daft. This coupled with the fact that many fans have been brainwashed into believing we couldn't get a better manager and are beginning to accept mid-table mediocrity as the norm...

Couple more away wins, couple of home defeats having become draws but also a couple less extremely late winners at home and far more would have turned against him imo. People are daft. That's an excellent analysis. Personally the first time I seriously wanted him out was after the Reading game, but then along came the new signings and things improved for a while. The worry since then is that rather than the new players pulling up the performance level of those around them , they've been gradually dragged down to the shit we've been playing all season, which strongly suggests something very wrong behind the scenes. The mackem defeat put me firmly in the out camp again. Wouldn't 100% rule out him turning it around from here, but it would need significant changes and the odds are very much against him now.

Moyes obviously has a style and vision , Pardew on the other hand has a group of flair players playing 1990's english football. How do you justify having a manager that is backward thinking to the players we are bringing in?? If we had alan smith , barton, nolan and Carrol here i think we would probably be higher up the table this tells you what serious mismatch in personalities we currently have. Alan Pardew is a quack and deosn;t deserve his time here anymore , holding the player back with both his hands and his feet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
