Guest icemanblue Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Deserves all the shit he'll get for the first half, regardless of individual horror shows. Won't get the small amount of credit he deserves for the second half improvement. Hard to see exactly where we go from here. This season, so far, has been the definition of 'a mixed bag'.

Hanshithispantz Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Is it really about giving him credit and not giving him credit any more? We know he's poor, anything else is just semantics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp40 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Well as a deluded sympathiser I went along with some of the excuses for last season, still accept europe affected us. But my acceptence came with an understanding that those excuses were used up for this season. I felt these Games after Man City were a true test, and we are looking truly fucking abysmal.

Mick Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Players and Ashley to blame IMO. The main problem was Pardew, if you can't see it now then you never will. I was , if you pardon the pun, Taking the Mick tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 He's quite simply an abomination of a manager. If we hadn't plucked him from League One when we did, he'd be either out of work entirely or managing Southend or something like Phil Brown is. He's no better or worse than Phil Brown or others of that ilk, he just got handed a Premier League fucking job just as he was about to disappear. This is it. He's Iain Dowie, Aidy Boothroyd, Brown, Tony Mowbray, he's any number of managers who've taken a team out of the Championship before failing after a year or so and disappearing into oblivion/Northampton/Middlesbrough. Phil Brown is at Southend! That's where this fucking cunt should be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 'Head the ball, which helps' He's got a point there like. I was screaming at my U'11 team for letting the ball bounce from GK kicks on Sunday. It's the same at every age and every level. Dont let it bounce in front of the back 3 or 4. For our players to do that has nothing to do with Pardew imo. It's just rank bad CB play. Awful and indefensible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Newcastle kind of season then. Got to agree with a lot he said in his post match there, like. What can he do, when our defenders just don't defend? Basic fucking errors. Three easy, easy goals. Backed up by Neville, too. Some things you just can't account for, really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 He has to take responsibility for the way he set the team up and the apparent lack of fight and motivation in the first half, but he was also badly let down by several key players tonight - the likes of Krul, Santon, Colo and MYM all having shockers at the same time is difficult to legislate for.

thomas Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Deserves all the shit he'll get for the first half, regardless of individual horror shows. Won't get the small amount of credit he deserves for the second half improvement. It's a game that can't be won man. Does something wrong? Blamed and well deserved. Does anything right? Should have been doing it anyway, no credit. And anyone who thinks I'm misrepresenting the no-win fantasy world they live in, where the minimum acceptable criteria for a manager is "gets everything right all the time", please, provide a comprehensive list of things you would actually give pardew credit for. And I don't even like the fucker - although to some I'm sure if I'm not actively trying to set him on fire I must want to lick his hoop - I'm just tired of the ridiculous blindness on display sometimes.
