Tooj Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I gave him the benefit of the doubt (one good season/one bad season) up until the Reading game. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that result is among the worst losses I've ever experienced as a Newcastle fan. Liverpool was the worst for me, the line up was the worst i've ever seen in 10 years. I was excited for the match then the team went around and it was a sickening feeling knowing what the likely outcome of the match was going to be. I was praying for 0-0 half time before i even got to the stadium. The Reading game was just an absolute farce, it seemed to me like Pardew was crying out to Mike to get some new players with some of the decisions he made, they were so bad and so far off what should have been happening I thought at the time he was just exaggerating his plea. His tactics were shocking but it was nowhere near as bad as some of the times we saw under Roeder's tenure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 You know your manager is shit like when his positive points are things like "I think he threw the game there to show the owners just how bad things are." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettNUFC Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 No chance will he want to win the cup this year, that would mean Europe again, and we all know what the cuntbag thinks of Europe. Good point. He hardly disrespected Europe? He gave it a good go in terms of team selections bar the first few opening games. He just liked the Europe excuse when our leagues results were damaged. I'm sure Laudrup will pop in the Europe factor excuse on multiple occasions down the line this season on the back of a loss following a Thursday night game. Just an easy thing to give the press, expected. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lineup for Liverpool was a cowardly surrender. Like Brett says, I can remember being excited on the metro in, then I had the wind knocked right out of me as soon as I saw the team. Knew exactly what was coming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Spark Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 My position is basically that Pardew is shit and should have been sacked long before now. However, he is still here and I'm going to support him and hope that, by some miracle, he recreates our form of two seasons ago. Say what you like about that season, but you can't deny that we were organised, we pressed the opposition well and we were clinical up front. We had none of those things last season, but they happened once so they could potentially happen again. It's a long shot, though, and I completely understand the vitriol he gets on here. He deserves it for some of the shit he comes out with and some of the decisions he has made. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Ronaldo when was the turning point for you with regards to Pardew? As I know you used to be quite pro-Pardew a lot of the time, especially compared to others on here. Apologies if that was never the case but that's how I perceived it.

The line up for what he had at his disposal was by far the worst decision i've seen. Roeder was horrible but I can’t remember ever having that sickly feeling from just hearing the team news. Never want to feel that again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I know you used to be quite pro-Pardew a lot of the time, especially compared to others on here. Apologies if that was never the case but that's how I perceived it. The West Ham game marked the start of the penny dropping - never been so mad after a game in years - though I didn't fully support his sacking until the Reading farce. I defended him in the first half of the season, but a lot of it was just me pointing out that he was taking an unfair portion of the blame from the players.

Hanshithispantz Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 There was a few people who believed we should have upgraded him at the end of the season when we were 5th tbf and it was hardly a daft opinion. Maybe a bit harsh but the signs were there that the squad was outgrowing him, or at least looked like it was going to until Mike put a halt to it.

What decent manager comes anywhere near a club that spends no money, willingly lies to managers about transfers and sacks them for finishing 5th?

Many had the foresight to know that was a fortunate season from start to finish. And the foresight to know we were heading at a direction south of 5th in the future. But sadly no one could imagine 16th not even me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
