TheGuv Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Dont know about anyone else but the thing that stands out for me is, when Elliot says we want Champions League. It's about Pardew and what he's telling the players about us as fans is scandalous. Wanting to be in the Champions League is not a wrong thing to want, and besides that's not what we want right now, we just want to see decent football and a manager who isn't tellling us how small we are, or how we can't compete with f***ing Southampton. And it goes to show that Pardew see us just as the southern media do, completely wrongly. 4 years of this arsehole and his contempt for us is disgusting. He hasn't bought into the area like he reckons he has. Just a lying, disgrace of a person. Utterly disgusting, the lot of them. Shit!!!!! I forgot to add we argued over this. He was actually saying we can't compete with Southampton I used 50k as an example which he said meant nowt. They earn more money than us etc etc. Aye and who's fault is it that we have no intent on the pitch....? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Ambush a guy on a night out then use the off-the-record conversation to hammer him in an article? Slightly dodgy IMO, even if you agree with the conclusion. Of course. You don't think it's slightly unfair on Elliot? You think it's any better to be slagging off your team mates to a guy in a bar?

Sorry Ian, I normally wouldn't get involved in discussing these sorts of NUFC things as I know it's not really my place, bar the odd cursory 'this is the view from the outside' post.

Slightly dodgy IMO, even if you agree with the conclusion. Of course. You don't think it's slightly unfair on Elliot? An NUFC employee telling people in public that Keegan is a poor manager, not as good as Pardew and that 8th or 9th is our level? Aye, my heart bleeds. You don't say things like that "in confidence" man. He's as stupid for telling an NUFC fan those views as he is for having them in the first place. Course he is, I never said otherwise.

No and I haven't heard any NUFC fan on here claiming we do. I'm happy with 11 players played in their correct position not looking like a team of unmotivated strangers for a start Exactly, but Pardew's has some players eating out of his hand, you give players reason to blame someone else they will and Pardew is doing that by blaming other players. The others who see him for the coward he is, look like they'll be turfed out (Marv, Mbwia, Hatem, seems like Colo now as well). Ridiculous stuff.

Gallowgate Toon Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 It's not the most ethical thing that could have been done but who cares? As fans of the club we've been made absolutely powerless over the last few years. If we need to 'play dirty' to get things going then so be it.
