Cajun Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I would say this place is probably one of the harshest on Pardew, there is quite a contrast between reading this forum and Toontastic where the real Pardew haters are the ones who are often derided (anyone remember Christmas Tree on here?).

The College Dropout Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Always said that its concerning that we rarely win comfortably. Can't remember the last time we won by 2 or 3 goals. Or even winning 2-0. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I think it's fair to open discussion about his negatives, christ I have plenty of question marks about much of his management. But the way some people go on here they give off the impression that they're almost desperate for a negative result so that they can be proved right.

Tiresias Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Mates are bemused by my criticism of Pardew at times, they kinda buy the injuries excuse for this season and don't see all the shit. Happens other way around, was surprised when Man U fan mate made a complaint about Ferguson being rubbish tactically Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Especially concerning considering we need a two goals advantage over Benfica as a minimum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have nightmares about him, horrendous patter. Seriously, I've long since had any faith in Pardew but lets not criticise him for celebrating a last minute winner with the fans, that's just petty.

David Icke - Son of God Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I stopped taking anyone on here seriously when he got criticised for playing Shola a full two days before a game and guess what... ...Shola didn't play.

To be fair, what else are they supposed to say? Pardew was great all along and they're now convinced? I'm undecided, but today was a deserved and vital victory.

midds Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Chopped and changed things around in order to break them down and it eventually paid off. I liked the fact he was switching wingers/wide-men a few times too. Santon going off didn't help but throwing 2 strikers on as well as keeping Cisse on proved that he knew they were happy to settle for a point and could take a few risks. More strikers doesn't automatically mean more goals but if you keep the pressure on them and keep getting that ball in the box then you usually get your rewards. The goal was late but it had been coming for half an hour. Fair play to Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinmk Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Wouldn't have blamed Wullie smacking him. We drag ourselves out of a shit situation that he's responsible for and he manages to seek attention and play the hero of the piece. Shouldn't be in this position to start with. He's one step away from grabbing a mic to sing, a la Phil Brown. Similar ego. Pretty harsh! Got the result we needed and we showed much needed improvement in most areas too. Don't blame the guy for celebrating a potentially relegation saving goal myself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly was, just read the match report and we had 20 shots, 10 on target (I know, stats don't tell the whole story etc..) compared to their 5 and 3. Was one of those "we are never going to score!" games but sometimes I forget we have Papiss '90+' Cisse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 If someone has admitted to that then they are squirrel shit nutty. I hate the bloke for the football he brings (quite like him for most other things). I'am very critical but the team will always come first. I would never be happy if the team lost so can slag him off, the team winning is all that matters, along with good attractive football. Fwiw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
