Lost 12 games since the turn of the year. Since November last year we've lost 21 games. Sack the living s*** out of him.

 

this, is there honestly still anyone on here who doesn't believe he deserves the sack based purely on his performance over the last year?  i know brett is one but is there anyone else?

 

would love to see a poll like

 

I can think of 3  :lol:

 

who?  inochi, ian w, brett?  i don't think ian w and inochi would keep the fella like they just seem to revel in being contrary (might be wrong)....someone else is a bit pro-pards, happy face?

 

By the way his performances from last season do deserve the sack just for the record, but i've just always maintained i wouldn't trust Ashley to hire someone to make me happy if he was ditched. Onnce decision was made to keep him, i decided to give him another season and another chance. So actually i do think in general Pardew's performances from last season should have earned him the sack under normal circumstances, but this club hasn’t got normal circumstances  :lol:

 

Talk about a contradiction of a post. If you are happy with a bloke you think should have been sacked , what difference does it make who is appointed?

 

Because there's a difference, if i was a Spurs fan i'd have wanted Harry Redknapp sacked and AVB brought in, however i wouldn't have wanted Redknapp sacked if they weren't looking to upgrade. In our case we wouldn't be looking to upgrade, it would be someone like/deffo JFK, so i'd rather stick?

 

I think you would be hard pressed to find a manager worse than Pardew tbh .

 

I've actually named our next manager in

my post if Pardew gets fired so i wouldn't say i'm hard pressed.

 

He certainly isn't worse. I would guarantee you wouldn't see the cowardly tactics and performances that Pardew has been manufacturing. 

 

Incredible that you can be so sure Joe would be better. Not sure what the basis is for that conclusion.

 

The point is, he's not likely to be worse. Replacing one dinosaur manager with another isn't really what's required, but at least we're a step further along the road.

 

How will being a 'step further along the road', with all of the unrest that goes with it, help us to win football matches? If Kinnear is no worse, or better, than Pardew - what's the benefit?

 

Because one more detestable cunt is out of the club?

 

Are points awarded for that?

 

Points aren't awarded for signing players either. I'd rather we did it, like.

Got a sneaky feeling he will be sacked shortly after the transfer window closes. Guy is drowning and it would take something special for him to turn it around now for me.

 

Missed all the chat over the last few pages about who still backs Pardew etc but it might be good to know exactly who does and who doesn't, just so we know where we all stand on here :)

Poyet is bookies favourite ahead of Kinnear. FWIW.

 

It's a logical choice but Ashley has a logic all of his own. If he can't work until his court case is settled that might explain why Pards hasn't been sacked yet. JFK is the insurance policy in case he walks. This is all desperate speculation here mind, so don't pull me up on it.

Pardew could be the biggest troll of all time.  :pardsgrin:

 

Using the "over the line" phrase in every interview even when he's not talking about transfers. Still fits it in atleast once.

Gets slagged off by us for using the tiredness excuse last year so uses it after the first fucking game in the build up to West Ham.

Says Shola is his favourite player and we the fans should love him.

 

and so many many more that I can't be bothered to list.

Yeah, its interesting, I would have thought Kinnear would have been favorite. Other than Poyet being out of work I'm not really sure what links him to us more than anyone else.

 

He was approached before JFK last time round. He's spoken to Ashley a few times already. I think he'll be in when Pards goes.

You find it insane to suggest Pardew "would do better" (your words) if he could buy his own players, really? Last summer he asked for a full back and got a dimunitive defensive midfield player unsuited to his preferred style of play and who he clearly still doesn't rate or trust. This summer he has asked for Premiership experience and has mentioned specific names: Carroll, Bent and Downing. All players who were available and have transfered from one club to another. The Bent saga specifically suggest we were never seriously in for him. The club is deliberately ignoring his requests and going for what they perceive as bargains regardless of position and fit to the manager's style of play. Under these conditions, how can you be surprised the manager fails? If it was the other way around, i.e. we had Laudrup as manager but only bought Stoke type players, I'm pretty certain you would see the point I'm trying to make..

 

He's bought his own players at every club he's been at before he came here and his record of being a poor manager can be seen by everybody. 

 

Why is he all of a sudden, going to get better at it here?

 

He doesn't make teams better and that can be seen from his record, if you want to ignore what he's doing here.  He's not a good manager and that is unlikely to change.

 

The last thing the club needs to do is give a shit manager like Pardew more power over anything, he's hopeless and people wanting him to well is going to change nothing.  The best thing that could happen would be for him to turn into the manager some deluded fools think he is and all of us wished that he was, it's almost certainly not going to happen so he needs to go.

I hope you're right. Some light at the end of the tunnel at least.

Still can't believe the daft sod abandoned that 433 never to go back to it, that's definitely when Alan Pardew jumped the shark as NUFC manager.

 

When does the shark eat him?

 

Not sure but in terms of his NUFC tenure:

 

The series continued for seven years after Fonzie's shark-jumping stunt, with a number of changes in cast and situations.

 

7 years. :anguish: Seems he will see out his contract after all.

It feels like we're sitting back, refusing to be taken to the cleaners and waiting until the selling clubs have no other choice but to deal with us (like with HBA). And waiting for the last few days where players become available and other deals break down. Hopefully we'll see some action next week/on deadline day.

 

From January 2011!
