Tough running drills? Are you actually kidding me?

 

This guy couldn't be anymore archaic. Disgustingly out of his depth.

 

This moron is definitely one of those clowns that just makes players run and run and run, and then work on defensive shape and set pieces.

 

Get him out please.

The thing that always gets me more than anything is, during that spell at the end of 11/12 when we were:

 

                                Krul

Simpson      Williamson      Coloccini    Santon

 

                      Tiote

                                        Jonas

                           

Ben Arfa                  Cabaye                  Ba

 

                                Cisse

 

And, at times, playing some lovely football and going on a winning streak that saw us to 5th, he didn't think "okay, next season, Debuchy for Simpson, a new player in for Williamson and Anita in for Jonas."

 

Instead he thought, "this needs to change."

 

I can't get my head around someone being specifically that stupid, at all. Not just at Premier League manager level, just at all. People that have never watched a game of football before would know to not change that set up and especially that front three/four.

He's a terrible manager! He wasn't strong enough to tell Ba he would be staying on the left for the team's benefit, and so tried to play both him and Cisse upfront, which never worked.

 

He then went even more boneheaded, and started playing Cisse wide instead of Ba, because again he wasn't strong enough to manage Ba. It's essentially been downhill from then on.

 

Even with the start of a new season and Remy essentially coming in to replace Ba. He's never thought to go back to that formation with Remy on the left, and stick to it, especially as Remy has looked great on the left when he's played there.

 

He's completely clueless, there's no doubt about it. I honestly don't know how he's a manager. He isn't aware of what works well for the team, and never learns from past experiences. He's just really stupid. Ironic that he keeps harping on about needing smarter middle class players, as he's the one that is very unintelligent.

It was Ba wasn't it? Essentially put him ahead of our side it seemed & tried to justify it on the radio as "Footballs not about formations, it's about pass & move" etc I think. I remember people specifically asking him why he'd stopped the 4-3-3 & he claimed it wasn't that important.

 

Essentially he ignored the obvious & thought he had insight beyond it that everyone else was missing. Then we nearly got relegated.

He also claimed that we switched between formations all the time and that we had done at the end of that season as well. Lies of course, we were always 4231 at the end of that season with players staying in position (apart from when HBA and Ba switched sides occasionally) and last season we never once, not even for a moment played with Ba left, Cisse central and HBA right. Not for one single second.

Not to agree with Kaka like, but whatever the reason, the outcome was the same.

This is self-righteous, but I still feel some people don't "deserve" to want Pardew Out. Those of us who've argued it since ~Reading were urging proactivity as we could see this unfold at any given time due to his unmistakeable shitness. I was given an incredible amount of shit from other Swedish fans for my "negativity".

 

Not seeing it then but turning around now, for the exact same reasons, is provoking.

I couldn't give a shit so long as they learn from their daft mistakes and remain off their high horse.

It was to be fair. Alternatively we could have signed a proper left winger and let Ba and Cisse compete for the striker position, but you are not allowed that many purples.

Sorry, but what are you on about? As one of the first along with Mick (from what I remember and HTT I think) I don't care if people saw sense then or now, the important part is that everyone is turning against this complete and utter fraud.

I think one of the reasons Cisse did so well was because he had the support of Ba coming in off that side. If you had put a normal left winger there I'm not sure it would have worked so well. Guess we will never know now.....

Knew this wouldn't go down well :lol:

 

Probably because of what I encountered from most Swedish fans. Had to defend my opinion on Pardew way too much. This is some sort of personal revenge. I take it you stay away from the Swedish forums? Being ridiculed for an opinion that most people would come to accept 12 months later. I feel they deserve Pardew  :)

*next manager name here* OUT!!!

 

There, at least I will be allowed to stay on as a fan when the inevitable happens.

 

It's not about that specifically though, it's more about being snooty and lauding everyone whilst being exactly wrong for like 2 years. Not that I'm arsed like, it's petty, but when you see the same people continue to think that they're right in such a patronising way, it's canny hard to hold your tongue.

:facepalm:

I'm sorry man, but self-righteous doesn't even begin to describe what you wrote there. I've wanted him out for a long time as well, and yeah I guess that Reading game was something of a turning point. But at the same time I've appreciated the concern for another managerial change, considering our history and especially our clueless owner.

I remember a random game where we beat spurs 2-1 & Ben Arfa got a pen running in from a corner. Think that was the last time he used it, obviously because it only helped us beat a champions league contender at that time.

 

Winning manager of the season helped his ego to much, never does what's simple & that's all he can do well. Sad thing is with our players then that's all we needed.

All Pardew has to do to get Cisse back on track is this.

This is it for me. Anyone that held the pardew out belief was usually patronised or laughed at as "hysterical". Now obvs people are turning round it's hard not to be annoyed about it IMO

 

This is what I meant.

When we were doing fairly well for the first half of the season and playing some decent stuff, were the ones who preached patience wrong then as well? Besides, the fans who hadn't turned then were every bit as powerless as they are now. Only one man can decide to give him the bullet, and he probably won't for obvious reasons. I just think calling people out like this is childish, but each to their own.
