Ste Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Really don't think it makes a difference either way if he's in the dugout or not. It's not as though he's an inspirational force or has his own particular style which he likes to remind the players of on matchday. It'll just be plod along as we have been and pick up points where we can. They could have gave him a 70 game ban and I wouldn't be bothered, we're not aspiring for anything. Pardew got his big-man moment in. Well done. We'll see you back at the Emirates and this mediocrity you've drilled into the club can continue.

Paully Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 The Secret Footballer isn't a fan of him! It must be Dave Kitson who he managed at Reading?! http://www.teamtalk.com/newcastle-united/9208475/- Pardew a ticking bomb I don't know what was going through Alan Pardew's mind when he squared up to Hull City's David Meyler and head-butted him. It's bad enough seeing players squaring up to one another, with their heads pushing against each other. My friend had the best solution. He'd twist the nipple of his opposite number and make him look ridiculous. I don't care who you are, a nicely timed nipple pinch is capable of bringing Mike Tyson to his knees. I know it sounds pathetic but, actually, it immediately shows up angry footballers for what many of them are when the gloves come off. All talk and no substance. Regardless of how soft the head-butt might have been, what Pardew did was a disgrace and the FA has handed down a stiff punishment - a three-match stadium ban, then a four-match touchline ban, plus a £60,000 fine. Pardew's biggest problem, as I've written before, is that he has a massive ego and doesn't take kindly when he feels he has been shown up - as when a player bundles him out of the way to retrieve a ball. His ego won't allow him to be portrayed as a pushover and, in some cases, that outlook probably serves him well. Yet in the wrong situation, it's a bomb waiting to go off. Newcastle acted quickly following the incident, fining Pardew £100,000, but quite a few people, including Alan Shearer, were surprised the 52-year-old even held on to his job. It has been alleged in the past that Pardew and Ashley have a financial arrangement away from football that involves substantial monies owed by the former to the latter, claims strenuously denied by Pardew, but it has again been suggested to me several times over the past week that the relationship between the pair is linked to more than on-field success. It would certainly explain why, even when Newcastle are performing woefully on the pitch, there is never anything to be read about a potential successor to Pardew. Make of it all, amid the claim and counter-claim, what you will... http://www.teamtalk.com/news/2483/91...dgy-deals-rife As for the manager, Alan Pardew, he seems to take the praise with ease when Newcastle win and finds a lot of excuses that point blame as far away from himself as possible during the tougher times. Chris Hughton's sacking at Newcastle came as a surprise to many but I was told that Pardew had been working on Ashley for months by hanging around the Ritz casino and gambling with him until they'd formed some sort of friendship. Suddenly, he's the Newcastle manager. He is an interesting character but not my favourite person. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 FA supposedly unhappy with the length of ban given by the independent panel and want to extend it.

Slim Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Nice to see him getting some credit "Finally, a lot has been said about our manager in the last week, but Alan Pardew came across as being a credit to our football club. From the moment we arrived he made us feel very welcome, taking the time to come and talk to us during training and even sending someone to get us Newcastle training coats because he said we would be too cold! But most importantly he definitely has the respect of the players, speaking to each individually during the practice match about their role at the weekend, and listening to the tactics he shouted to the players convinced me that he certainly does know what he’s doing! I really enjoyed my morning at the training ground and left feeling happy that whilst the media may talk of a crisis at Newcastle, there is no problem with what matters- the team.
