r0cafella Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Pardew = Pulis. Would be no upgrade at all, and with no promise even of improved football it would be such a pointless appointment. Can see it happening. As garbage as pulis is he's a clear upgrade on Pardew for me. Unlikely to see several players out of position and formations chosen on the merit of we have a lot of centre halfs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can see it happening. As garbage as pulis is he's a clear upgrade on Pardew for me. Unlikely to see several players out of position and formations chosen on the merit of we have a lot of centre halfs I think that's just because we're more familiar with Pardew's failings - most Stoke fans were delighted to see the back of Pulis too (his approach there to having loads of centre halves was to play all of them too remember?) Pulis has a career win percentage as a manager of 36%. Pardew's is 42%, or just at NUFC 37%. 2 bog standard average managers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tachikoma Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 None of us have followed Stoke or Crystal Palace long enough to know that. Why the fuck are we shelling out 3 mil for a manager who is barely better than absolute shite when freebies like Laudrup are available? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course Pulis wouldn't be my choice, I don't think he'd be anyone's. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tachikoma Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Hell, there are at least several freebies I'd rather have than Tony fucking Pullis. Di Matteo even, easily. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Can't believe there's actually a possibility we finish the season on 8 straight losses while still finishing top 10. Just goes to show how average the league is in general; most of the teams are pretty rubbish and you don't actually have to be all that amazing to make moves in the top half. That's why terms like 'flat track bully' make me laugh as a criticism of players - that's all you need to be on the most part. Of course the cunts in charge would have you believe that it's impossible to impact the top half without spending a hundred million quid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 It is highly likely he is going to be the first NUFC manager to lose 6 consecutive Premier League games. If NUFC don't beat or draw with Cardiff there's a good chance it will go up to 8 losses in a row. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyond belief Sections of the media were saying that during the Sourness era as well, it's absolutely baffling. Keeping someone in charge simply to imply that you're aiming for 'Stability' isn't going to be stability if they're not the right person for the job.
