Jordan Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Making first substitution in 85th min man. He's lost the plot this season, the football's awful and he's got to go. Pandering to Ba's needs have killed us this season and made the whole team look shit by playing a rigid 4-4-2 with every player suffering except one. Cisse has went from looking brilliant to a joke by purely awful tactics, felt especially sorry for him tonight after grafting his heart out and finally getting a goal to be let down like that.

Guest Big Al Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 As if he's going anywhere man. Stop wasting your time even thinking about it. This. OK, but what if the slump continues in the next 7 games [Everton game incl.], what if we register just a point or 2 from Wigan and QPR, then Ashley will have to act just to protect his PL money share. AP is on a 8y contract, but Ashley will sack him no doubt if this terrible run goes on... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Venkman Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Being honest, tonight wasn't his fault for me. The defending for both goals was dreadful - Colo culpable for the 2nd too Sounds about right. Remember our discussion post home derby last year? We're basically there aren't we? Unimaginative, rigid, keep it tight and nick a goal, everyone behind the ball if we do manage to go ahead....it's everything we were worried about even when we were getting points. I've got such little faith that he'll turn it around because this is the way he's been setting the team up for 2 years, all that's changed is the injuries but you cant have a style of play that leaves you so completely shit without a few first 11 players.

Pilko Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 We definitely played differently today, a step in the right direction at least. It shouldn't take until late November for a performance where we think 'hey, we did alright and deserved to win there!'. Why couldn't we play like this in any of the other games? We've been so humdrum all season and he's not sorted it out, coming out in the press saying we were unlucky or 'just missing that spark/luck' when in reality we've been ghastly.

TRon Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Why he waits until we are 2-1 down to make the changes is beyond me. Probably thought we could see it out, then we they went in front he hasn't a clue what to do. No wonder Pulis was so happy, he probably couldn't believe his luck that we were prepared to let them have so much of the ball so they could keep bombarding us with long balls and big bastards. Tactical genius is Pards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Five o Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 As mentioned before, i have no faith in our owner getting a good manager in. As a supporter i feel between a rock and a hard place tbh. Can not see the light anywhere now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 He can blame injuries all he likes, he's still responsible (as are some of the players has to be said) for the attitude, commitment and tactics of the players on the pitch, all of which has been dreadful.

spudwiser Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Why he waits until we are 2-1 down to make the changes is beyond me, we had too many players that were shattered Marveaux should have been on much earlier This was the most glaringly obvious one - the same two subs around about the 70th min would have seen us through Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 A good manager would have worked out how to at least get a draw in last 4 games, 4 defeats to that caliber of team is fucking alarming and yet he seems to think it's just injuries. Pardew you have been playing horrific football in every game this season and it's up to you to work it out man you stupid cunt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robster Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I think we did ok too.. reasonable. However, I think that was helped by Stoke being absolutely dogturd. Fuck me they would make my eyes bleed watching them every week. I think anyone with any genuine quality would have humped us with ease. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sempuki Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 With the TV money being so big next season Ashley will want to protect his investment and I have no doubt he will sack Pardew if this run continues and we are in genuine relegation danger. I don't think he will act yet though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to say the same thing myself. He doesn't know how to take control of a game, even when it's there to be won he'll just stand there like a dick until it's too late.
