Jokes aside, this thread is far too agenda driven by several posters to be worth anything to anyone. It's the black hole of the forum, I'm doing an Ian and staying out.  :hmm:

 

I think you're right at times, the last few days have been alright though IMO. The luck argument is slightly pointless, but it's something to talk about from a slightly different angle.

The luck argument is as valid as any. If you have a problem with the conversation, then change the subject or ride it out until the conversation is over. There are fifteen people in the house and you're the only one that has to make trouble.

Is that a home alone reference?  :lol:

I've missed the luck thing, all I know is it's some part of KI's breakdown and all public eye breakdowns are hilarious.

That's what everyone does Ian, expresses an opinion. We don't necessarily need you to chime with your unwanted validation of whether ours should be expressed or not. If you think it's pointless then don't get involved in already ongoing discussions that you've wandered into.

Forgive me if I don't take this seriously at all.

:lol: Vintage Ian right here. Partially agree, then disagree.

 

You know there's no beef here its just  :aww: how you try to be so civil.

 

Well it's not like I have a long-standing agenda to defend this thread. I just think it's been much worse than recently.

I wouldn't expect any less. In a nutshell, people can talk about whatever the f*** they want. If you're going to say that you're just expressing your opinion, then realise that everyone else is just expressing their's.

Just been compiling an at a glance sheet of points totals for the whole league going back to the first season it was 20 teams.  Everyone knows survival is supposed to be 40 points, but I wondered what you need to finish elsewhere, on average....as you do when you're at work.

 

Stattophobes look away now, stattophiles get your socks on your cocks....

As you would, I picked out the Newcastle finishes on there.  Lucky or not, it's interesting that Pardew's "lucky" 5th place point total was within 1 win of the Dalglish total with the team/mentality he inherited from Keegan's title challengers.

 

Probably tells you how shit Dalglish was rather than how good Pardew was.

 

Whatever.  The aim for a Europa place should be 63 points.  20 points from 12 games extrapolates to just over 63 from 38 games.

 

IT'S ON!!

I've never said otherwise, my opinion is that proving whether Pardew is lucky or not is impossible. If other people want to talk about then knock yourselves out.

That's why it's being discussed and why most things get discussed at length on here. Yeah but, thanks for your permission, we will.

I'm chilling in it at the moment because the chat is not too bad and generally hassle-free.

 

Now you've done it.  Gonna go nuclear in here soon....

70 points and you're guaranteed champs league. less this season as the top six are all awry!

Back to the Pardew thread; I will give him some support because he deserves it. We are clearly playing more positive football this season and he has not been scared to revert back to a 442 with some "lesser" players in positions for the good of the team. Every manager has weaknesses, they can't be perfect, we're just stuck with someone who doesn't read the game very well and can't implement change properly to affect the result. At least he is sending out the first eleven that no one complains about (or less at least), I can remember last year and the year before when everyone agreed he just couldn't get a first eleven selection right no matter what.

If we take a step back and look at what Newcastle has become then I would say we have the correct manager i.e. a mid table mediocre guy who may, on a good run, get you into Europe. We will never see if he can reach his potential because of lack of backing from the people running the club. N.B. Yes, perhaps other managers could do better with the tools at hand but I can hardly see any top or "up and coming" managerial geniuses coming to our club. Can you?

I will also name ten other managers who are equal or no better so that we all get some "perspective":

Tony Pulis, Sam Allardice, Martin Jol, Mark Hughes, Gus Poyet, Chris Hughton, Steve Bruce, Paul lambert, Malky mackay & Steve Clark

righty'o just got in, can anybody summarise whats gone on? Pardew today good or bad?

 

More good than last season, but more bad than he should be.

 

 

 

As most of us agree he was above Par the 5th place season, and below Par last season. Can we just agree that this season we are Par due? 7-9th imo.

Thanks for this HF. I do like looking at these tables and do appreciate the work gone into them.

 

Disagree about some of your other posts but no one's perfect :lol:
