Mattoon Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 This was my argument two weeks ago, we had the chance to replace him while there are managers looking for work, but we've put all our eggs in one basket, if we have a bad start to the season he'll be looking down both barrels and it'll either be really expensive to get rid (reported one years wage) and compensation for a new manager, or we'll end up with some other unemployed has been. It seemed like a bigger risk to keep him, unless they plan on giving him the full season no matter what. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Not even Shearer is stupid enough to think he should keep his job, or so I thought until I read his rubbish today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 We should be looking to Sociedad's season for a bit of hope for next year. Montanier was criticised in 11/12 for being too defensively minded, his team have played absolutely fantastic stuff over the last 9 months and still have a slim chance of making the Campions League. Hopefully Pardew will come back refreshed and with the mentality that we saw at the back end of last year. Shame Montanier has signed for Rennes next year Oi, i put Montanier up for us months ago........ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny Green Balls Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Who can we hire if we sack Pardew at about....October? Scary fucking question. These motherfuckers will find the GoBot equivalent of a manager, as they've shown they can do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, we can hire who we like, if were willing to pay for them that is. That's the scary part, would they pay to take a manager from some other team.

Vinny Green Balls Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 it's not a matter of who we can that I find scary. It's a matter of who we will then. It'll clearly be some horrible, odious utter shit stopgap to try to stave off relegation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'll be their thinking, a manager used to relegation battles. Aye such joy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 We'll be better next season, which makes me happier. I think Pardew is poo but by August I'll be feeling optimistic again I'm sure. as much as i can see through pardew and how poor he is there's little doubt in my mind this season won't be repeated, only way i see it is if we have a tricky start with fixtures and start badly mid-table awaits Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I find that hard to believe, really. It's all very well to say a less-able man would be willing to put up with what would otherwise be unacceptable just because he's grateful to be getting the chance. But at a certain point any man's pride will kick in, and he'll say "I've had enough of being your door mat." Surely? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 He's a manager of a fantastic club and quality international players are being delivered to him. I don't see any reason he would, or should, be unhappy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you honestly think Pardew says behind the scenes? He just accepts absolutely everything without any input of his own? Absolutely, why else appoint a League 1 manager? He might 'say' things, but authority on anything other than first training/picking the team? No way. Maybe I'm easily led by conspiracies; appointed on a minimal basic and gambling debts to his boss. When he got his 8-year, that sorted his debts and he hasn't given 2 shits since. Not withstanding he's probably the worst manager in the league. Win-win for Ashley on original appointment, if he sucks not much payoff, if he's great then the club will earn more money. Then he decides to print of Graham Carr's contract and just change the name at the top and again the club is shown up for not having a football-club brain near the top.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I'm not saying he has the ability to change much BTW, clearly he doesn't. But I don't really see anything that he should be angry about, it's a fantastic job for him. And I also don't see much that we should want him to be angry about on behalf of the fans... I thought our main problem now was Pardew himself? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought our main problem now was Pardew himself? I don't think they're contradictory. He will have discussions behind the scenes with Ashley, Dekka and Carr, we already know this. But he doesn't have the ability to make wholesale changes to the club's transfer policy, for example brinign in a load of cloggers to play his mythical 'preferred hoofball style'.

Dr Venkman Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Ok, just think it's an odd point to make that he 'doesn't accept absolutely everything without any input of his own' when you acknowledge he's basically got no authority on anything that doesn't involve taking training and picking the team.
