Beren Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Personally, I'm in a dilemma regarding how long he should be given. I think my official line is probably until Jan 2014, but I'm really only saying that because I don't want to throw out a manager a year after finishing 5th. The problem is that I find it absolutely impossible to imagine our team looking any different come the start of next season. Maybe we'll be battling for 12th instead of 17th, but we'll still be peddling mediocre inconsistent direction-less shite. Can't be fucked with our handsome bullshitter anymore. That's a bad reason, man. IMO.* There's only really Man Utd, Arsenal and Everton who are left to throw stones anyway * - unless you mean from a footballing perspective, which the rest of your post suggests not Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Europa is a factor too here. We are still in the competition after all. I think he at least needs to have a couple of months into next season. Lose the first 8 games and we're golden and I don't think I could say I thought that he should stay because of our beautiful football last year. Not with a straight face anyway.

All the while, having only seen us on MOTD now and then. I'd get annoyed, we'd appoint a new manager, I'd be happy again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Venkman Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 I don't care one jot what fans of other clubs say tbh, besides getting it right on the pitch would soon shut them up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 I still doubt the ability of Ashley and Co to find a good manager if Pardew is binned. Me as well, if i had confidence i'd probably sack him at the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hobshobs Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Should we give Pardew time seems to be the question here? How long does it take to work out that Shola Ameobi and Gabriel Obertan should be out of this club immediately. Shane Fergsuon is a better player than many at the club yet is out on loan to cover the manager's incompetence in Europe this season. Tiote should not be looked upon as the guy to pick the ball up off the back four and be the playmaker. Danny Simpson is garbage. When Hatem Ben Arfa has been out with a hamstring injury it isn't advisable to throw him back in as a centre forward on an astro pitch in freezing cold temperatures. I could go on and on but really can't be bothered. Pardew is an amateur. If Ashley had one of his managers at Sports Direct managing like Pardew or had staff performing to the level of Ameobi or Obertan they'd have been long gone.

Cajun Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Should we give Pardew times seems to be the question? How long does it take to work out that Shola Ameobi and Gabriel Obertan should be out of this club immediately. How often do they play? and when they have why was it? Shane Fergsuon is a better player than many at the club yet is out on loan to cover the manager's incompetence in Europe this season. Most would agree he needed a loan, no idea what the Europe comment is about. Tiote should not be looked upon as the guy to pick the ball up off the back four and be the playmaker. Tiote tries too much often when there is a lot easier pass, I doubt he has been told to do this but we can't really prove this either way. Danny Simpson is garbage. Has been dropped as soon as we had a better player, same as Williamson When Hatem Ben Arfa has been out with a hamstring injury it isn't advisable to throw him back in as a centre forward on an astro pitch in freezing cold temperatures. I will refrain from getting into this argument again. I could go and on but really can't be bothered. Pardew is an amateur. If Ashley had one of his managers at Sports Direct managing like Pardew or had staff performing to the level of Ameobi or Obertan they'd have been long gone.
