Wullie Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Excellent piece. The worst thing is that Newcastle fans should know that better than anyone, we had the Premier League's original and best beacon of positivity in KK, a man who could garner performances through sheer force of personality. Yet we've got so many supporters who buy 100% into Pardew's defeatist bullshit. I don't understand why. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most "sensible" (relatively sensible) fans I've spoken to who sympathize with this defeatist mindset say it comes from a "once bitten twice shy" point of view. We had a promising start to our PL years under Keegan, and came up short. Again under SBR we looked like we were on the verge of something spectacular, and again failed to deliver. Seems to me that some fans are utterly convinced that we have found our level with Ashley and Pardew and have no right to aim higher. Makes me f***ing sick.

Guest Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I think the majority have turned. There was a fairly large group who were in the "deserves a chance" after finishing 5th in his first season, see if he can create a brand of football. He's failed abysmally. Should have got shot of him before the January '13 influx of players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

From someone who focussed completely on imposing ourselves on the opposition to the bloke who spends every pre-match bigging up their strengths and talking down our own chances. Can you imagine Keegan moaning about how hard it would be playing Swansea at home because they were probably going to try and keep the ball?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/john-gibson-alan-pardew-sounds-7005832 John Gibson: Alan Pardew sounds like Prime Minister who has just lost an election Apr 18, 2014 16:00 United's travelling supporters have been loyal to the point of blindness but even they can only take so much served up in their name. Therefore, after oceans of dross it was inevitable a banner would be unfurled at Stoke voicing their dissatisfaction. It read: “No more excuses. No more lies. Pardew out.” United duly limped to their 12th defeat in 17 matches since Boxing Day and what did we get? More excuses from the silver fox. It would appear the dirty dozen are not down to him but to us, the local press. Well, if it is not us it is injuries. Tiredness. Nothing to play for. Yohan Cabaye leaving. Really? I suggest Pardew locks himself in an empty room and faces up to some uncomfortable facts. Facts like he can no longer motivate the players. They appear not to care about him or the crowd. Or have personal pride come to that. Facts like he is sitting up in the gods because he was officially labelled a nutter. Like his defence is as watertight as a colander – 12 goals conceded in the last four defeats. His strikers...oh dear. No goals at all in those same matches. Did we fail to score goals or did they? Did we leak a basketful or was it somebody else? Were the failed tactics ours? What is happening on the training ground to right these wrongs, that is what I would like to know. Two naturally-gifted players, Hatem Ben Arfa and Sylvain Marveaux, are discarded because Pardew cannot do a thing with them. Fabricio Colocinni wants to go home, Loic Remy wants away, Luuk de Jong must be one of the worst loan signings in a very long time and two players about to get free transfers, Shola Ameobi and Dan Gosling are being used in the hope they will at least bring effort to a workshy team. Yet it is outside influences which are to blame. Yeah, of course it is. Honestly, Pardew sounds like a Prime Minister who has just lost an election. It is nothing to do with me, squire, and nor is it the fault of my friend Mike for selling my best player in January and not replacing him. It is those scumbags down in the Bigg Market who keep pointing these things out. Tomorrow United must attempt to avoid becoming an Easter bunny when relegation- threatened Swansea arrive at St James’ Park. In theory this should be a home banker – especially because of the supposed sighting of French walking wounded on the training pitch. United, a club of history, of standing, and supported by 50,000 mad Geordies are reduced to relying on another club’s striker Loic Remy where once thoroughbreds like Wor Jackie, SuperMac and Big Al used to walk tall harvesting goal upon goal. It would seem we have to swallow our pride and pray Remy agrees to run around with a black and white shirt on his back or rely on a 17-year-old kid Adam Armstrong rescuing his so-called peers. Swansea dealt Newcastle a mortal blow in south Wales winning 3-0, but that was only one of eight PL matches they have collected maximum points. They appear as a bunch to be as split as Newcastle, only they are fighting one another while the Mags are pacifists. United had better get their bottle back. Steven Taylor and Shola Ameobi have talked about it but I wish they would just shut up and do it. They along with Pardew keep chuntering on about “a positive reaction” to the latest defeat but I have more chance of spotting Lord Lucan in Tescos than being served up blood and thunder it would seem. It is not about what Swansea do tomorrow, of course, but what their hosts do. Surely the penny has dropped. Do not goad those who pay to watch you in such vast numbers. Get it right Alan Pardew if you do not want this to be your Swan song! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 This quote from a few pages back was great. "You have to prove yourself as a manager at any club, but particularly at a big club, that you can handle the tough times," he said. "I did that at West Ham and got a lot of respect from West Ham fans, more for that, probably, than some of the great victories and getting to the cup final and the promotion we got. Thinks he got more respect from fans for dealing with pressure when his side was playing poorly, than getting them playing well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
