Mick Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 The club’s intention last season was to finish in the top eight. Because we finished lower, the club re-evaluated and we want to finish in the top ten this season. We actually think we've got a strong squad and we are capable of finishing in the top ten of the league. The board repeated that its aim this season remains a top ten finish. Our minimum target for this campaign was a top ten finish. Minimum: the least or smallest amount or quantity possible, attainable, or required. Target: a desired goal.

midds Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 We're 5 points better off. The Cardiff result could make that 6 or 8 points but it's still fucking dreadful. 5 points gained with a borrowed striker who has scored the goals that have turned a few draws into wins. That's the only thing that's keeping us above the relegation zone. Once he signs for a proper team we're right in the shit. It's untenable for Pardew, he simply can't do this job any longer. He's totally and completely and utterly fucked. It's a matter of time. It's hard to avoid this conclusion now like. The only thing that might save him is the end of the season, and a couple of signings in the summer to do the same again. It seems as though he's gone past the point where he can turn it around. Who on earth would back this man's judgement? He's inept. "Aye, you've proven to me that you know absolutely fuck all and are incompetent. Here's £40m to spend on players, use it wisely."

Depends on how messy it gets from now until the end I suppose, we have at least two more epic batterings to come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varadi Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Just to repeat what others have said as well, the way he keeps going on about this "5 game run" as if it's just a blip is unbelievable. We've been on a horrific run since January with about 9 defeats and 3 wins (all with late goals in 1:0 victories) The team has been dreadful for a long time. Not to mention the absolutely horrific time we had last season. He genuinely seems to think people only have a problem with the last 5 games - fickle Geordie twats.

Guest neesy111 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Williamson would be playing for relegation fodder or back in the championship if Pardew wasn't here, so of-course he's going to defend him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettNUFC Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 He's right with that though, it is frustrating because we were 3 points behind Liverpool Boxing Day. On the whole of things it's just been an average season. If someone said before the season you'd finish top half with 45-50 points, i'd have taken it after last season. The way the second half of the season has turned into this much of a disaster though on top of having no cup run has basically just ruined us all. There's literally not one thing you can be positive about anymore, expectations were raised after the first half of the season then all expectation was crushed in the second half and it’s back to relegation talk in the near future.

Collage Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Really thought he would be gone at the end of the season but the latest stuff in the media about our alleged transfer targets, who have "Pardew" written all over them, and the fact that he has an entourage of (s**** and British, coincidentally) players who mimic his drivel, points to the conclusion that he's completely safe. Going nowhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
