Mattoon Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 How can he himself, as a former footballer, and a professional manager, have absolutely zero ambition? Where is his own personal pride? Who doesn't want to win a f***ing cup?! Tbf "half" of him does, shame the half is his arsehole that he's clearly talking out of. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 We have won 2 of the last 8 during the "FA Cup period" of the season - exactly how could a cup run have made that much worse?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishMagpie Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 “There is half of you that would like to be playing for a trophy or some tangible reward at the end of the season like a European place. “But there’s also that other side where you don’t want to be involved in at the bottom like we were last year and have that stress. This is the worst thing I've ever read He's a f***ing wipe. I opened the thread and honestly thought you were talking about something another forum member had posted. No idea till I scrolled down and saw the article this was actually spoken by our manager. Fuck me sideways!! This man is a fucking clown and should be shot out of a cannon.

Who doesn't want to win a f***ing cup?! This. Even the league this season. Show some balls and ambition and talk about trying to catch the two above us as a target. Give us something to look forward to. If it accidentally gets us into the Europa League and it scares him, then play the kids in the Qualifier and lose but for fuck sake, top 6 for a manager with any modicum of ability would still be the aim this season.

r0cafella Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 It's impossible to have any sort of cup run and maintain a decent league position according to? Pardew. Never heard such nonsense before Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 It's impossible to have any sort of cup run and maintain a decent league position according to? Pardew.

Chris_R Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Ridiculous that he still harps on about Europe being so detrimental last season, but didn't we play reserve teams in virtually every round until the knockout stages? Complete fucknugget. That quote which everyone's talking about is so horrible, basically saying "I don't want to be in Europe or go on a cup run, it's too risky. The limit of my desires is to be safe in the PL". What an utter horrorshow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Venkman Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 “There is half of you that would like to be playing for a trophy or some tangible reward at the end of the season like a European place. “But there’s also that other side where you don’t want to be involved in at the bottom like we were last year and have that stress. So half of you wants to be towards the top of the league, but the other half doesn't want to be near the bottom. Thanks for that insight Alan, it makes less sense than anything I've ever heard. The Pardew Paradox. That's the single worst quote he's ever made, without doubt. I cannot even put into words how f***ing terrible that quote is. It's genuinely something I'd expect someone to write in one of yheir miss the point of the argument and instead twist a few choice phrases from various posts and argue against that messages on here. Every manager comes out with these sort of quotes Aye SanToon I suppose you're right, at the end of the day we're all at the point where we'll hammer absolutely everything. Exactly, too many cyber tears in this thread IMHO It's all faux, all of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 That thing about the cups is extremely dodgy, but I would like to hear the question as well. Hopefully he's just trying to take positives for the remainder of the season. The 'half you of wants to compete for a trophy' is appalling though.

Guest bimpy474 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 He keeps going on about the Europa because he can't accept his own failings.

Cronky Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I've no issue with him using our position to experiment with some younger players and different formations. Managers rarely get the chance to do that so we may as well take the opportunity. And missing out on the Europa League is no calamity. Naff competition.
