Guest firetotheworks Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Unbelievable hypocrisy like. Tbf, we're talking about and watching football. Stats are raw and can be used however you want them to be used, no matter how ridiculous. Like saying 'Swansea only finished 5 points ahead of us'. I'm not against using stats at all, but I think using them as a crutch and putting them above your own experience, your gut and your judgement is complete lunacy. I couldn't watch a match and be consoled with the amount of shots we had, if I knew, first hand that we played s***. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 The funny thing is I've barely used any stats to defend Pardew apart from the fact his team aren't as reliant on the long ball...which no-one disagrees with and is blatant to anyone that's watched us over a period of time in 2013. People just go apeshit at the sight of a number. <a href="http://reactiongifs.com/?p=15284"><img src="http://www.reactiongifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/colbert-jaw-drop.gif"></a> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the average Newcastle fan was as embittered towards Pardew (as opposed to Ashley) as this forum is then he would have been booed out of town long ago. Proper Rat King of loathing has built up on here I think, and more people join with a loss than escape with a win/draw.

Crumpy Gunt Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 An extremely sobering thought that Di Canio and Bruce have tactically tore Pardew a new arsehole in very recent history. Equally it could be said that Pardew has done both Hiddink and Ferguson in recent times. Impressive but hardly indicative. A popular call but ultimately a bullshit one. Bullshit? No, it's fact.

Hanshithispantz Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 90% of this forum is against Ashley, people just don't think Pardew is a good manager. That's the point. Regardless of whether or not anyone believes we will get anyone better in they just don't like Pardew as a manager (and some as a person) and are sick of the same mistakes being made week in week out as well as the same shit being spouted. "Dissenting voices" also apparently don't like Pardew, in fact they thinks he's a "grade A cunt", but will defend him to the ends of the Earth with a seemingly interminable stream of slanted statistics and graphs because they also reckon Ashley will get someone worse in if he's sacked (ie Kinnear). The debate as a whole is a load of fucking nonsense, it makes no sense at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think someone on here mentioned their utter disbelief that the Straberry corner would sing "Pardew is our King" during the Hull game. So a vocal contingent in the stadium are still supportive.

Right, so possibly a few people in 50,000. I'd expect more in the stadium, tbh. Not in real life though. I don't tend to hang around community centres and mental hospitals.
