Alan Pardew

Think the pressure must be getting to him again, noticed last time that he was on the verge of a breakdown he was coming out with even more nonsensical stuff too.

 

He's a bluffer, it's no surprise that he'll fold under pressure, bluffers usually do.

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

Would it be too hard for the clown to be positive for a change. No wonder to team is so down, all we do is reflect this idiots mentality.

So we'll need to try and win at QPR then Alan?  That what your years as a player and manager have taught you eh?  Thank feck we've got you around to gee up the lads. 

 

I'm really scared we'll need to get a result at home  to le arse.  He's nearly single-handedly killed what was left of an atmosphere at SJP.  Don't think they'd be the 12th man so to speak.  No disrespect meant to folk inside SJP.  Just think Pards is so fucking negative there's almost an air of resignation about the place.

Genuine question regarding next season:

 

Championship without Pardew or Premier League with Pardew?

 

2nd option, but it's like comparing turds.

Lowes on 5 Live - "A lot of fans are saying Pardew is tactically naive, which I think is unfair"

 

Now he's talking about David Moyes  :lol:

 

"If they survive by the skin of their teeth, he would at least deserve to start again next season"

Can't stand shit like this either. A reward for him, as if he had nothing to do with us getting into trouble in the first place.

 

The media really have no clue.
