Dr Venkman Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Is there a Toontastic app I can get which notifies me whenever a Newcastle Online member posts on there so I can rush over and tell them how intelligent our man is?

'Our' man. Chill out Wullie, HF goes on a posting spree on here, some people are interested in the debate. I also think the comments like 'you konw nothing about football' etc are ridiculous. Its an important debate and a good one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 There must be, I don't see how such a decent squad can perform so consistently badly. Our first 11 when all are fully fit would be the envy of 75% of the Premier league. Our second 11 would struggle to get out of the Championship. Stoke sent Shola back 5 years ago cos he couldn't score in that league....and he's still our best threat from the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Never thought I'd change anyone's mind. Surprises me how anti-Pardew this board is though. Seems 95% are militantly opposed to the bloke managing another game, it suggests a view that ANY other manager could turn Mike Williamson into a solid, classy CB that can pass the ball out of defence with aplomb rather than hoofing the fucker . Anywhere else it seems to be 50-50, largely people can see Pardew's clear flaws, but also the limitations he (and any other manager that replaced him) face. There'll be extremists who are stupidly supportive and just say "5th! 5th! 5th!"...and at the other end who say everything is an excuse. But most people see both sides. Here though, more than anywhere else it tends to be the latter "no excuses" sort. To the extent that protests are being planned. Are any other sites doing that? Just wanted to temper some of that extremism if I could. i don't frequent any other boards but the people i see posting on here know their football like and it's been very clear me over the last say 1.5 seasons that the cracks have slowly become to big to ignore with pardew and it's reached the extend that people can see our future if he stays as the manager it's that simple imo...a massive build up of pressure seeing how poor the guy is with their own eyes for too long, many tried to ignore it under the guise of stability but even they know where we're heading with this guy at the helm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the injuries have strangely helped Pardew's cause because in the fact, with everyone fit, I wouldnt trust him to select the right personnel. I don't think Sissoko or Cabaye have played in their natural positions since January, plus it seems he'll always find a spot for Jonas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dontooner Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 A same book can be interpreted in many different ways, tear apart the luck and injuries. Just focus on Pardew's team selections and substitutions. He has made many mistakes with being overly conservative and too respectful to many teams. He is by nature a negative manager , which finally has been proven to most by fielding hard workers and defensive players over attacking ones. Shola's involvement would also tell the tale of him , preferring knock downs to turn the tide of a game. (Going Long) At least we should agree on the point that Pardew is a defend 1st manager.

KaKa Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 So ... any news on this potential coaching hire? This could actually be a good way to improve things if Pardew manages to hold on to the job. Just get a really good attack minded coach, who can deal more with that side of things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Elliot, Simpson, Williamson, MYM, Haidara, Perch, Anita, Marveaux, Sissoko, Shola, Campbell? Would that struggle? Possibly but only because of the strikers. What you're basically saying is that we have a position that needs strengthening. Not sure that's enough reason to accept nearly going down.

Ikon Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Will we ever see Marveaux AND HBA in the same eleven for a longer period under Pardew? (when fit) Doubt it. Class players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're NUFC players now and they're all fit. You know as well as I do that those 6 would never all start a game under Pardew, so at least one of them is on the bench, and they're all a better option than Shola. So what you said was horse shit, and it's no surprise to see you try and back it up with some bollocks most used player stat. As is stands, right now, Shola isn't our best option from the bench. Someone intelligent would know that, and would only say it was true if it suited their agenda. edit - even Anita in a an advanced position would be a better option than Shola, he can pick a pass out. But that sort of move would involve Pardew having the desire and ability to make proactive offensive moves, rather than just bringing on Shola.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 He's definitely conservative, I would aay his natural style would be too build a solid unit that the flair players could operate on top of. I don't think he hates all talented players and just loves cloggers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a good move for many reasons, everything is too insular at the moment. Someone like Ginola maybe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
