BottledDog Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Love the response about him not becoming a bad manager overnight, as though the rest of his career doesn't strongly suggest that last season was in fact the one-off. You'll love Shearer then. http://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport/football/newcastle-united/pardew-deserves-to-keep-his-job-insists-shearer-1-5721453 However, Shearer is adamant the man who secured a shock fifth-placed finish 12 months earlier has earned the right to address what went wrong having been given the green light to carry on by owner Mike Ashley last week. He said: “I think he deserves to keep his job because of the season before. He bought himself time. “The nature of the game is he is under pressure and he knows that, but I’m delighted they stuck with him. You don’t become a bad manager in one season. “I’m pleased they stuck by him. He will feel they have to get off to a good start as you always do, but fingers crossed that will happen.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Some fans deserve a shit team. Yup, all non-'sack him' voters deserve to alternatively watch the mackem and Liverpool games for the rest of their matchgoing days. It's been over two years now for crying out loud.

huss9 Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Neil Cameron: To say we put a spin on results is just nonsense 1 Jun 2013 12:42 Sports writer Neil Cameron on The Chronicle's Big Toon Survey Share on print Share on email Newcastle United's end of season survey 2012/13 Newcastle United's end of season survey 2012/13 It's been a busy week here at Chronicle Towers. Not only have we had to sift through almost 3,500 responses to our Big Toon Survey, but we’ve also had to painstakingly alter your votes so we can curry favour with Newcastle United. Or as someone posted on our website, take part in a cover-up that was akin to “an African election” and that we had for some reason sat on these results for weeks. First things first: the vote was obviously free and open to all. We didn’t tell anyone how to vote or how to answer our questions. We just read them. And as much of the comment was heavily critical of Alan Pardew and the club in general, it is difficult to see how any of the past five days’ coverage has “got us in” with Newcastle United. Many of the quotes from supporters that appeared all week in the Chronicle did not miss their mark, whether it was about the manager, tactics, certain players or the owner. We published them. Again, this proves how neutral we are. Also, the voting was open for two weeks and closed a week past Thursday and we started to publish the results on Tuesday. So it’s not as if we kept this secret for a month, although it’s hard to see why we would do that anyway. The biggest bone of contention was the subject of Pardew. Those who want him sacked, which was a little under 50%, couldn’t believe anyone would have voted any other way. That is where the accusations came in about us tweaking the results, which is an absolute nonsense. A slight majority were divided between sticking with Pardew and giving him to the start of next season, one final chance if you like. On a personal level this surprised me. I thought around 60% would go for sacking him now, with most of the rest prepared to allow him, say, 10 games of next season. But the idea that we somehow doctored these figures is ridiculous. This is what the supporters said and this is what we published. Finally, a big thanks to everyone that took the time to fill in the survey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
