Toonpack Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I'd take my chances if it meant Pardew gone! This. I don't think there's any guarantees in football with managers, you could get a highly respectable manager who just can't cut it here or someone who's scoffed at who really kicks on with a club of our size. It's always a gamble getting in a new manager, whatever the credentials. Worrying that you might get worse than what you have is short termism IMO if the current manager can't do his job properly. In the current circumstances at the club, I'm not sure we can truly judge that. I do think he was absolutely culpable for Saturday btw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a manager who after 3 years still reverts to hoofball when the going gets tough. That tells you all you need to know about his ability when under pressure. Sticking with him would be mental imo.

Ikon Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 And despite being at the helm for 3 years we've almost always found it tough to win games convincingly against poor sides despite having better players most times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 It's not as black and white as people judge him on is the problem, yes we're 8th, yes we've won a few "unwinable" games but the manner in which we play, the negative tactics, the hoofball, it's fucking unwatchable. I'll take my chances thanks, I hate this Pardball we're playing and I hate the fact we bottle it at home against weaker opposition. I could go on..

I'm not from the area but I have an adopted hatred for Sunlun (Not just for my love of NUFC but because of some clown I used to work with who was canned for being a scrote!) and even I know the importance of beating the great unwashed over the (not so) mighty Man U. To suggest otherwise is insane, that match is not just about the football and has more meaning than just points and league position ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 We won't neccessarily finish 8th or higher and I think we'll have another run of poor games before long. The quality of teams general in the league this year is shocking imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought we played some truly lovely stuff against Norwich, why he abandoned it against Sunderland I can't comprehend mind. I think Dave said something similar to this, Pardew is limited so when he lost Cabaye before Norwich, he stuck with the same team (with an addition for Cabaye) and tactics because it was so close to the game. Rather like last season with Cisse on the wing after he lost Ba before a game. But the Derby gave him time to think and we all saw what he cme up with. And that mate is why i hate the bloke, he is a fucking retard who thinks twatting forward early will work. In all his time here, it hasn't and will not work. Playing football nicely as we have at times this season is what works. But fuckbrain thinks launch ball is what we need just because we lost Cabaye. He's a fucking meatbag of shit.

Well done for trying to pick a hole in one point and ignoring the rest. 1 full game granted, but it's his go-to tactic when he's under pressure, Shola on... Hoof!

Wullie Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 All the wanky mackems in my office were laughing on the other side of their face when I pointed out we'd beaten Man United. Some of them started rambling about something to do with them and Man United and a semi final so I blew them a raspberry and walked off. Mugs.

alexf Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 If Man United hadn't been the mess they are this season, and weren't being beat at home by the likes of West Brom as well then yes ofcourse the win at Old Trafford would always rank higher than the derby.

AlanSkÃrare Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Saturday was very telling of his tactical confusion. It was the way we played last season. I don't know why he reverts to it. He loses those games most of the time, he loves his percentages and numbers according to some. He should look at them and see how many games we've won when we're punting it to Shola. I suspect we'll see a lot more than this, with him explaining how hurt we were by Cabaye's departure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikon Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 How can Pardew allow the pass back to Krul who then hoooofs it to the opposition 9/10 only for us having to start defending again. I don't know how many fucking times this has happened during the season. One of our midfielders under pretty much no pressure at all passing the ball to one of our defenders who aslo under no pressure at all passes it to Krul who then hits the ball to fucking no one! A minor detail perhaps, but countless of times we've lost possession by doing this shit and it annoys me like hell! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
