loki679 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I'm not Pardew's biggest fan but it's a hell of a stretch to be blaming him for Colo based on what we know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 This really will sort out whether he's a good enough manager or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Shouldn't have to deal with the Colo stuff considering the crisis we were already in. The board really have to back him now in the transfer market or there's a very serious risk we will go down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memphis Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Whether you like the man or not, this situation is a rather extraordinary - and largely unfair - test of man management. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_NUFC Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 If Colo wanted to move because of Pardew there would be a line of clubs looking to take him, he wouldnt be going back to a skint club in Argentina. Haven't read any of the last few pages but it must boil down to personal issues at home for Colo. Homesick, issues with the wife, whatever. The quotes from Pardew after the QPR game seemed to indicate that he was having a hard time focusing. Don't think Pardew is to blame for this one. Bang on. Looks like he's got some serious issues with his personal life, looking at how quickly he wants to leave England (almost as if he's had a run in with a mafia or a fling with a local waitress), and his representatives said he's leaving due to "personal matters." That's the only explanation for the swiftness of this decision to leave, the timing, and more importantly, to his old club where he can be close to his father.

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I think Pardew is a fairly good manager. The look on face during the matches reminds me of Fernando Torres or even Cisse at times this season. What he did to bring himself to the position of a Premiership manager and what he did successfully last season isn't working anymore. Frankly, he looks lost like a man who is bereft of confidence. With players, you persist with them, but when managers have unacceptable results that are replaced. I like Pardew, but I believe the time has come for us to move on unfortunately.

Klaus Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 This Colo news is going to make Pards job even more difficult. In times like, where the team lacks confidence, these the manager needs its best players and Captain to lead by example and show authority. I bet the players feel as gutted as we do, and i don't know if Pards is up to the job of motivating the team, tbh i don't think any manager would find it easy.

Guest palnese Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 We don't look like scoring from anything other than moment of class or a defensive mistake. There's no plan, no movement, nu runs in behind. Nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
