Interpolic Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 mad b****** ye IP. I'm not, I thought that us potentially being in the bottom 3 on Tuesday night left us helpless, but I was wrong and I will carry that to my grave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, get them in early Pardew. Assistant referee Matthew Wilkes slipped at the decisive moment of Reid’s 20th-minute clearance and Pardew cast doubt over whether the official saw the incident properly. By coincidence, Wilkes was the man who failed to spot the severity of Callum McManaman’s horrific challenge on Newcastle defender Massadio Haidara in March. Top official.

Dave Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I know it's only one word but: Positivity is required now and apart from admitting that he dare not watch Wigan's game in hand at home to Swansea tomorrow, the Newcastle manager Alan Pardew led the way. "It's not just between us and Wigan," he said. "There are a lot of teams in the mix now. The most important thing for us is to win our next game and see where that leads us. The point could be absolutely crucial. But we've got to make it crucial now. We've got to get three at QPR – that will probably be the key." Fucking hell.

Guest icemanblue Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I can just imagine having the craic before the match, when I drop, 'here lads, did you see that he used the word probably, instead of definitely, in one of his post match interviews, the horrible negative cunt?'. Bet I wouldn't have to buy another drink that day. I know I'm becoming a parody, but someone has to provide some balance. Your doing your reputation no favours, Internet.

Well we could draw to QPR and beat or draw to Arsenal and still be up. I think the team that is relegated will finish on 39p. If that is us, Sunderland, Norwich or Wigan I don't know.

Newcastle Fan Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Arsenal will face us while they are battling for a top 4 spot, and considering how our last two games at home went i'm honestly thinking were the most likely candidate to go down Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Arsenal will face us while they are battling for a top 4 spot, and considering how our last two games at home went i'm honestly thinking were the most likely candidate to go down They could have 4th wrapped up by then. Can see Chelsea beating Spurs on Wednesday and Stoke getting at least a point at home to Spurs next week. That would mean an Arsenal win at home to Wigan would wrap up 4th spot before the last day.

Bloody unbearable 2 weeks with all those possibilities. It's amazing. I mean we could still lose the next two and survive. It's all past season Wigan that is putting fear onto us. If everyone puts £1000 on Wigan win tomorrow we will either be richer or Newcastle will be very very close to survival. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Aye, that's why I'm trying to distract myself til Tuesday in order to preserve some sanity. Both results could go our way and relieve some of the anxiety leading to the must-win game at the weekend. It's freaking mental with the number of teams still in danger, more so when we are included.

jimmymag Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Pardew said: “It looks like at QPR we’re going to have to try to win the game and see where that leaves us. We wanted to try to get two wins.” This joker just gets worse! No Alan we don't have to "try" to beat QPR, we fucking MUST beat them! And he seems to have given up on beating Arsenal in his last sentence, as I think he's including the West Ham game in that quote! The manager will take us down if his comments are anything to go by. Just compare the negativity of what Pardew is saying compared to positivity of the other managers in danger. He's scaring the shit out of me, so what the fuck is he doing to the players he needs to inspire? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Just listen to him man. Talking as if having to win at QPR has fuck all to do with him - as if it was out of his hands. If we'd won the last two away games (like we should have), then we wouldn't have to win against QPR Alan. You clueless idiot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varadi Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Very possibly a Giggs, but thought this article on F365 was a decent read: Pardew Hasn't Learnt From His Mistakes... Although Newcastle kept a clean sheet against West Ham, they have now scored only one goal in four matches. Alan Pardew's negative tactics are hindering the Magpies... After recent heavy defeats against Sunderland and Liverpool, Newcastle's hard-fought 0-0 draw with West Ham will have come as a relief to Alan Pardew. That relief may only last until Tuesday, however, when the Magpies could drop into the bottom three for the first time this season if Wigan beat Swansea and Sunderland pick up at least a point at home to Stoke on Monday. It's an embarrassing predicament for Pardew and, despite Newcastle's improved defensive performance at Upton Park, the manager should be worried by his team's lack of invention ahead of two crucial matches to secure survival. The Magpies have now scored only one goal in their last four Premier League fixtures - and three in the last seven - with Papiss Cisse again cutting a lonely figure in attack on Saturday. The loss of Demba Ba to Chelsea has obviously had a detrimental impact on Newcastle's form in front of goal, but Pardew must also take responsibility for failing to address the Magpies' barren run. While Roberto Martinez has encouraged Wigan to repeat last year's incredible survival feat by adopting an open, attacking style of play, Pardew seems fearful of allowing Newcastle's players to express their quality in a cautious, uninspiring system. It's one thing to play dull football and grind out results - as West Ham have done for much of the season - but Pardew's perennially negative tactics have continued to bring poor performances throughout a disappointing campaign. The manager showed that he is capable of making necessary changes to his team's system by switching to a 4-3-3 formation in the second half of last season, but this year he has failed to act to prevent Newcastle's slide, persisting with the same players and approach week after week. Pardew has struggled in similar circumstances before, with Saturday's trip to West Ham offering a timely reminder. The manager's rudimentary tactics gained promotion, a top-ten Premier League finish and an FA Cup runners-up medal in two full seasons with the Hammers, but when performances started to slip he had no answers. A dreadful start to the 2006/07 season, in which West Ham lost 11 of their first 17 games and scored only ten goals, resulted in Pardew's dismissal, and many Newcastle fans are now hoping that the same fate befalls the manager at St James' Park. It is too late for Ashley to act on the manager's future at this stage, of course, but the fans' shocking reaction to the Sunderland and Liverpool defeats revealed that they have finally run out of patience. Newcastle have enough quality to comfortably finish in the top ten and yet they have remained in the bottom half since mid-November with Pardew seemingly bereft of ideas on how to change his team's fortunes. It seems that last season's achievements may have left a negative legacy in terms of Pardew's loyalty to his underperforming players. Jonas Gutierrez and Cheick Tiote have been in terrible form for most of the current campaign, yet both can expect to be in the starting line-up when fit. This complacency underlines Newcastle's significant backwards step this year and, even if they survive, Pardew's past record suggests he will struggle to learn from his mistakes http://www.football365.com/f365-says/8692355/Pardew-Hasn-t-Learnt-From-His-Mistakes...
