Based on the Donachie incident there is a small case for sacking him but Ashley likes rebellious characters and will probably reward him with a payrise. If rumours are true and we have Di matteo lined up then I wouldn't mind.

Proper weird people saying it's "passion" like. The bloke's unhinged, which I knew already from years of reading the mad s*** he talks.

 

He totally lost control and attacked a footballer, that's not passion.

passion is an often used as a pathetic excuse for bad behaviour, I remember some punditry on the football league show when one guy brought up "Leeds have had 6 red cards in 5 games, do you think they have a disciplinary problem" "no i don't think so they're just passionate"  :lol:

Just to clarify, I'm not condoning it, it shouldn't have happened and given his past exploits it's time he went, but I do think the incident is gaining a higher momentum because it's a story from our circus act and not a club from Dahn Sahf or one of the media darlings in Manchester. That's the only thing that gets my back up.

Is it me or does Linekar seem very angry :lol:

 

He's not the only one within the game who is. It's weird really, they normally all stick up for each other.

 

They are working with each other in the summer as well. :lol:

Forgive my ignorance but what are the chances that he is going to leave the club over this? Are the media trying to get him fired and will that work? Is the incident that serious that he is going to have to resign or be sacked? Will this blow over with him getting a 5-10 game touchline ban and a hefty fine with nothing more said? Of course Willie Donachie left the club a few weeks ago for allegedly striking Remie Streete in training so I really don't see how this incident differs. Does Pardew HAVE to go?

 

I don't really like the guy but I hate the instability which sacking a manager brings. Although with the stated changes for the summer on the horizon, now would be a decent time for a change, or maybe leave it until the end of the season. It is very unlikely he is going to be seen on our bench again this season anyway, whether he leaves or is suspended. The club might actually just do that, suspend him and stick Carver, Stone and maybe even Beardsley on the bench for the remaining games. I honestly don't see it making that much of a difference to how we play. We may be more adventurous.

 

I can certainly see where people are coming from when they say that his authority over disciplinary issues will be severely undermined after this. It was completely out of order and because it is not the first time he has been involved in this type of incident I fear he is going to come out very worse for wear from it.

Honestly I really do think the media are overreacting. It's silly and embarrassing but you'd think he'd stripped himself naked on camera or something.

 

I might even be offended if it was a manager I liked.

It's not a overreaction.

 

Name the last time you seen a manager do that?  He's the figure head for a professional football club, it's totally embarrassing for the game in general.
