Alan Pardew

[Guest icemanblue]

What's the craic with groups on Facebook? Most people seem to still support Pardew, some even think he isn't remotely to blame.

 

They're exclusively run by the absolute thickest of the thick.

Fuck me, man. I can't possibly feel more optimistic, even though we've kept a clean sheet after conceding 9 goals in two games, have our captain back, and our best player able to start games... Actually, fuck this, I don't need to justify an actual real life gut feeling to some fucking sad sacks on the Internet. Good grief.

 

Watch out, he's having a paddy and being totally unreasonable.

 

If today left you more optimistic than you were yesterday then they need to bottle your dna up and sell it. Call it something like Delusion.

 

I assume that was typed out whilst winking to the camera?

 

If its delusion, it's delusion. Why shouldn't I say it how it is, though? Because you, and others, don't feel the same? I was at Liverpool, and that was almost the lowest I've ever felt as a Newcastle supporter. Because of that game, completely in isolation, I was worried we had nearly no chance of putting any more points on the board. However, today we have. We showed some spirit again, had a relatively steady looking defence and pace going forward. We probably should have scored two goals. Is it so entirely unreasonable to be encouraged by that? So much so, that I'm open to ridicule? We're not down. In fact, it's still entirely in our hands, even if two wins out of two is massively unlikely with the man in charge.

 

OK listen, I'll tell you why I've got such a problem with what you've said.

 

As I understand it, what you've said is that you are more confident and optimistic about us staying up now than what you were this morning.

 

Last week and also this morning, lots of people have asked me whether I thought we'd go down.  I've been saying that I don't know, that I'm 50-50 and that it's probably more dependent on Wigan than us at present because you can't rely on us to win a game away from home, and the way we're playing the Arsenal game's a write-off.

 

Today we drew 0-0 in a game we really could have done with winning.  The manner of it sticks in the throat for me.  We settled for a draw after an hour as if we had the luxury of picking and choosing where we get our points.  But that's another story I suppose.

 

Even more importantly Wigan won at West Brom.  Sunderland are likely to get a result at home to Stoke tomorrow.

 

So Inochi.  If Sunderland get a draw or better and Wigan win on Tuesday we're in the bottom 3.  I had nightmares about Wigan winning today and us not winning our game because it puts us in an infinitely worse position than when the games kicked off. 

 

And you're more optimistic?  It pisses me off if I'm honest.  It's unreal.  I can't believe what I'm reading.

 

So, in essence, it pisses you off because you don't agree or feel the same way. That's alright. I don't understand why my opinion would piss you off, at all, but it's not my problem. If you'd asked me this morning if I'd take a point, I'd have said 'aye, gan on then'. I don't disagree that other results have went the worst possible way they could have and, if Wigan and Sunderland win, I'll be back to square one. But, those games haven't been decided yet. It's always been the case that we need to do our bit to negate those results. I'm repeating myself, but that's largely still the case. So, at this point in time, I am a little more optimistic than I was before the game.

 

I admitted that it was an odd reaction to the game, but I'm not saying anyone else is wrong.

 

It doesn't piss me off when people have a different opinion to me, it pisses me off when people are so gleefully oblivious to the glaringly obvious.

 

We're in a worse position now than we were this morning.  I'm not sure how that can be disputed.

 

A draw would only have been an OK result today only if Wigan didn't win.  As it stands, we've put all of our eggs in one basket, i.e. winning only our 2nd away game in an entire season.  We could have made it a lot easier for ourselves today but we took our only 2 dynamic players off, a decision you've backed.

 

You must have huge confidence in Swansea on Tuesday or us against QPR next week.  I'm honestly still struggling to see why you're more optimistic after today.

 

We're going round in circles here, like. Nothing you've said there is news to me. Well, except for me backing the substitutions. I've said I understand why Hatem was taken off and stand by it, but I've not mentioned Gouffran. I know he was cramping up but, if we has done for, I'd have went for Anita before I'd even made eye contact with Gosling.

 

I don't have any confidence in other team's results. After the last couple months, that'd be foolish in the extreme. But, as I've said, they're not decided yet.

 

How are we going around in circles?  I'm saying I'm amazed you're more confident we'll not get relegated after today and you're just giving me a load of waffle with no justification for such an insane point of view.  Honestly, I can't see where you're coming from whatsoever.

 

Er...

 

You think my opinion and justifications are 'a load of waffle', that's fine, but there's no reason for you to say I'm not giving any. They work for me, but don't fit your way of thinking. That's cool, man, we're never going to agree on this.

 

Your nice guy front would be better served without the the "er"s and the smileys and the general piss taking.

 

Your justifications make no sense, we're 2 points worse off today and our performance was nothing to be proud of. We bottled it big time today, it was depressing as fuck and my exasperation at someone seeing it as a positive day is still being met with a load of waffle.

[GM]

If Pardew gets us relegated, I'll be quite disappointed and may have to seriously consider reviewing the cost-benefit of attending games in future.

It's fine man GM, calm down.

The thing is, the people defending him to the hilt are well over 20. Heres some of the shit I've read tonight:

 

records are set to be broken. Losses happen sometimes, its a factor of the game. Newcastle have ALWAYS had a trend of trying to shut up shop. Its a club trait.

We'll leave it because you're talking bollocks.  Generally mocking tone with no points of note whatsoever.  Brilliant, well done.

I feel as if I should rise to that. But, I won't.

[TRon]

What's the craic with groups on Facebook? Most people seem to still support Pardew, some even think he isn't remotely to blame.

 

The average age on facebook is probably 12 years old.

 

and their dad's are probably disillusioned members of the NUSC still patrolling Skunkers and Toontastic.

Wow, how admirable. You've got a lovely habit of making out like people are being unreasonable when they have an opposing view like. Your argument against me tonight's been wooly at best and absolutely batshit mental to the point of being totally pointless at worst.

 

Sure you'll come up with another wisecrack remark to make yourself look clever like, but the quite unbelievable point is that you thought today was a positive day for NUFC. That's just incredible and we're still skirting around that point. If you really believe that then you're off your rocker.

Good day for NUFC today bimpy, do you think?

[Guest bimpy474]

Good day for NUFC today bimpy, do you think?

 

Nope, not in my opinion. I tend to think that after every game though.

[Guest bimpy474]

Just imagine if we do go down and Pardew isn't sacked.

 

Just think of all those lovely players he will want, the type to get you out that league he will say. Overlooking the fact that Cardiff, Hull and all the play off teams have done well playing decent football.

 

Oh dear god.

Ah, man. Today was an ever so slightly positive day for me, man. For me. I haven't tried to dispute anyone else's opinion, because I know it's not been ideal results wise. This is the post that started it:

 

More a figure of speech, like. But, I'd have thought there was a lot more to complain about from today than this. I'll maintain my position on it anyway. I'm yet to read a worthwhile argument to make me doubt my own eyes. I'm off out, feeling oddly more optimistic than I was at 14:59. I doubt a night on here will help that.

 

Are you done now? I'm being told to go to bed. Should have done that when I got in.

[Mick]

I've just noticed that we might have to win 2 games on the bounce to stay up and we've only done that once this season in the league.

[Guest bimpy474]

This all went tits up when most of us would have took a draw, thinking that Wigan wouldn't win.

I can't imagine if the architect of the relegation isn't punished for the relegation. I'm actually shocked that he's still here now.

OK, sorry for keeping you up, I agree that you should definitely go to bed.

 

I was a 4/10 on us getting relegated this morning, I'm now an 8/10.  So yeah, if you're saying what it seems you're saying we'll never agree.

 

Never mind.  I liked you until this season, now you're my mortal enemy.

[Guest bimpy474]

I can't imagine if the architect of the relegation isn't punished for the relegation. I'm actually shocked that he's still here now.

 

Well as some have pointed out, he should have been sacked after we lost to Reading. I think he will stay but i'm as depressed as feck like.

[Gallowgate Toon]

If we get relegated, he'll be sacked and off Deka's Christmas card list within hours. If you lose Mike Ashley large amounts of money, you're done for.

Fucker is made of Teflon. We need to turn up the heat.
