LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 We had something to play for this time last season. We were playing not to be relegated. We were awful then too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
huss9 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 the awfulness is down to the standard of players, the tactics, etc. its the shear lack effort over a sustained period of time that i'v never seen before. even in the relegation season (other than the last game at villa) there was some semblance of effort in those last half a dozen games.

TK-421 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 God, has this **** not gone yet??? Was hoping the club might pull its usual stunt of making an announcement late last night, to miss the Sunday Press. Anyone know of there was any truth on the 'emergency meeting' rumours, or just twitter bollocks? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparkzter Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Doubt there was any truth in it. However Ashley has to see these games and players we have, if he wants to protect his investment against relegation there is no way he can carry on as is. Doubt he is gonna sanction spending with Pardew at the helm, once again, stick or twist, he is a gambling man. Wait till Christmas and it'll be too late IMO. He has to be thinking about replacing him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Maybe if the players could see a method behind the madness (or shiteness) that is Pardew's management, they would still be up for it knowing the club was going places. Was plotting to build. Some sort of footballing philosophy that could attract some good players in the future (within our budget). Maybe they'd buy into what the manager had to say, and remain motivated for the rest of the season. Maybe if he would play some of the youth, and give the seniors the responsibility of looking after them in matches, it might motivate one or two of the senior characters in the squad. As it is, Shola Ameobi comes on 3-0 down with 5 minutes left. As far as the clear and present evidence on the football pitch, since this fraud took over (bar the 433 run of 6 or 7 games which has never been implemented correctly since then), it's obvious that his ad hoc approach to player management, and apparent extensive detail on how to stop the opposition, is not something any of the players enjoy, and it's been obvious to them that it will take us nowhere. Football is about enjoyment. For the players and the fans alike. Our players certainly are NOT enjoying their football at all, and in turn, neither are the fans. Successful managers are....successful...because they understand this very simple equation. Pardew is a selfish chancer with no class, and a massive ego that has no justification whatsoever. It's not only that his football is rotten, HE himself is a rotten individual. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zicomartin Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 from Pardew's Wikipedia In the 2006–07 season, Pardew was criticised after seeing West Ham through their worst run of defeats in over 70 years which included an exit from the UEFA Cup to Palermo in the very first round[11] and a League Cup defeat to Chesterfield.[12] West Ham's new owners stated their support for Pardew,[13] but on 11 December 2006, following a 4–0 defeat away at Bolton Wanderers the previous weekend, it was announced that Pardew had been sacked by West Ham. The club statement read: "The chairman Mr Eggert Magnússon and the board have been concerned by the performances of recent weeks and feel that it is the right time to make a change in the best interests of the club."[14] maybe it needs to be updated and emailed to the sycophantic journos who don't see a pattern here...
