Disco Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I'm currently in Istanbul; if either the Galatasaray or Fenerbahce manager ever said such a thing they would be lynched. If he's said that that is utterly indefensible. It is his job to prepare us to try and win every game and to finish as high up the league as possible. In technical terms that's gross misconduct for admitting that you don't give a shit about attempting to complete your job to the best of your competence. As someone who 5-6 times a year forks up to come up to Newcastle from London, at a cost of £100 train return and then £30 per match ticket, he can go and fuck himself. Go and fuck himself for embarrassing my club this year. Go and fuck himself for making us a laughing stock again. But first and foremost, go and fuck himself for the pathetic lip service he pays to us fans when he clearly has not one fucking iota what it means to follow this club with your entire heart. Prick. You go to the game today? Looked like a spicy affair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theregulars Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Unbelievable comments! IMO he will stay until our first 'string' of bad results. Delaying the inevitable! That's the real problem. Doing that will muck up next season as well. Debating this with my mate as we speak. He's all "based on last season he deserved at least until Christmas" - what's the point? Overwhelming evidence says we won't go back to last season's form, so we in effect write off 1/3 of a season by allowing this. I hate him. Pardew, not my mate.

Zach Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Getting into the Quarters of the Europa has been the only half decent thing about this season aswell. But yeah, thank god we can forget it and concentrate on coasting to a midtable finish next year, I can't wait. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I thought that the thread title was a piss take, anybody still defending him? We are managed by an absolute cowardly fraud, I can't ever remember any manager saying that they don't care if the team gets beat 4-0. I hated Shepherd but I have little doubt that he would have sacked him for coming out with that shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 FWIW, I agree with Ian to an extent that the tone of his voice will matter. I don't think any tone will defend it, but if he's blatantly sarcastic in his tone then its just a f***ing stupid thing to say. If he sounds serious then it's scary.

Dave Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Wonder how it looks to the new players and those we're targeting for the summer when our manager is coming out and openly saying that we don't want to be in Europe? The Champions League is where everyone wants to play, there's no denying that. But qualifying for Europe of any kind most years suggests you're a team at the upper echelons of the league table, with the possibility of pushing on and/or winning something. It shows you're a big club. It showcases everything about the club and ultimately brings in more money one way or another. Oh, and the comments also say we don't want to win a cup. Though we already knew that considering our shameful submissions in domestic cups under this manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure fans enjoy seeing their team murdered 0-4 at home like. In clearly a state of immense relief, he expressed that he didn't give give a flying fook what happened in the next match, realised how stupid that sounded, and tried to qualify it by saying as long as the fans enjoy themselves. Made no sense, but just shows how he was buzzing off his tits at his team reaching safety. Stupid, but not worthy of a sacking (his inability to get his players playing well across a season sodding well is though), and certainly not worthy of goodness knows how many pages of teeth grinding. /Fair play league comments though....Jaysus.

Guest neesy111 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 So basically we'd be happy with just 40 games a season. 38 in the league, 1 league cup and 1 fa cup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
