David Icke - Son of God Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I wonder if he ever listens back to his sound bites and thinks to himself "Fuck me, I'm a bullshitting bastard! How do I get away with it?" Or if he's that self-ignorant that he believes his own lies? Strikes me as being a full on narcissistic prick. No chance, he's far too devious to not know what he and Mike are achieving together. Just because the bloke wears glasses occasionally, you're not going to fool me into thinking he's clever enough to be knowingly devious like that. The guy's is a good manager in the greater scheme of things, but strikes me as a decent unsubtle reactionary, and not someone with the nous of a Mourinho or a Ferguson to be playing mind games (even on the supporters).

TRon Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I think Pardew can still win over the doubters with a win over the mackems. It would make a mid-table finish much more enjoyable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 We should be beating them at home regardless of who is boss. To tell you the truth, I don't think I will ever be won over.

Mole_Toonfan Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I'll never be won over because i now know what he is. A reactive, limited and negative coach who can only take us so far..... yes the results have been good for the most part but his negative nature means there is a ceiling you will eventually hit. I want a pro-active, positive coach who isn't limited tactically and Pardew will never be that. I don't dislike him though, he's just not good enough.

Hanshithispantz Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Aye. I don't really understand what is so hard for some to understand when I say I'm happy with him when he's doing well but would replace him in a heartbeat with any forward thinking manager who can convince me he has the ability to stamp a good footballing philosophy on our squad.

Never liked the greasy faced bastard from day one. Neither will I tbh, I just don't think he has a natural instinct for either passing football or tactics. He reminds me very much of Souness in that regard in that he talks a good game but seems to have no idea how to make it happen. But a win over Sunderland would at least make the rest of the season a bit more enjoyable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone that can work with Ashley and that Ashley wants is the point. The talent of the individual is not the point. Average is acceptable under Ashley and average is what we have. Any decent manager would last a matter of weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewJerseyMag Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 You are arguing for Pardew to be replaced with a "better" manager, whatever you define that to be (performance on the pitch I assume). The fact is that Ashley's definition of a "good" manager and the fans definition are NOT the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is probably quite a few managers in lower divisions who could do better given half a chance. Yes men with football brains perhaps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
