The Official Alan Pardew Excuses Thread

That's up there with one of his worst yet for me.  We don't even buy players domestically anyway so those deals have absolutely no baring on us whatsoever unless one of those clubs decide to sign Cabaye. In which case it would prove the theory that we have been waiting to flog Cabaye before we spend any money ourselves.

Not read much of the thread, but it's scary that there are already 17 pages. Is that last excuse actually true? That's spectacular.

 

Interesting to have your perspective on it, given the counter argument used is that every manager does it. In the last few years do you remember a spurs manager using an excuse as good as training ground spies?

Well BMJ and AVB are certainly not excuses guys, and Ramos didn't really speak enough to come up with any excuses. His main one was that his players hadn't had enough time to gel ("2 points after 8 games"), which was probably fair enough.

 

But then there's 'arry. Nothing quite as absurd as training ground spies or fantasy congestion, but he was a fairly regular "this isn't an excuse, but" kinda guy. Just rather more plausible than Pardew. Plus his team generally did well, so his were usually pre-emptive and actually not needed.

Yes, because all three of those transfers are impeding our predictable scouring of France for bargain basement signings.  What a fucking helmet this bloke is.

He's basically hoping that somebody comes in and bids for one of our ''purples'' so he can sign somebody. It's daft but if your ambition is just to exist in the premier league & use it as a cash cow then that's how we'll be run.

 

Cabaye seems to be the one in the shop window this year as Tiote was last.
