Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Just watched a snippet of his pre-game presser for Liverpool and he actually uses the sentence "I wasnt good enough" when talking about the second half of the season, first time I've actually heard him admit anything is his fault the horrible cunt.

TheHoob Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 He might admit he's been at fault but I bet he still doesn't have a clue what those faults are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 He might admit he's been at fault but I bet he still doesn't have a clue what those faults are. Spot on, because if he did know we wouldn't keep doing the same things (hoofing it, 60 yards hoys in the oppos box, corners at Willo) over and over expecting a different result.

tmonkey Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 He might admit he's been at fault but I bet he still doesn't have a clue what those faults are. Almost certainly will think the fault partially lies with his headbutt which resulted in a touchline ban and therefore prevented him from stopping opposition goals going in.

huss9 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 "The most important thing is that you have a responsibility at Newcastle to play the game on the floor, play with passion and speed and play with an integrity. Those principles, I stand by and next year, I expect to deliver on those." Starts off very well, then fucks it up with his next breath. what a twat.

BlueStar Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I don't care if he plays underground or in the clouds, we're not demanding 1970s Brazil. Either attack with flair and take a chance or win ugly and grind out results on a regular basis - but don't set up to play boring, negative and defensive football and then concede 3-5 goals every fucking game, there's no fans that would put up with that.

henke Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 So we're getting a new manager? For real? I'll drink to that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 So he's known that all these years but 3.5 seasons later he still hasn't implemented anything resembling a plan to get us playing that way. Sounds like he is admitted incompetence there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Has this cowardly charlatan given his friday presser yet, or has it just been burried under a pile of nobody giving a shit anymore because we're all so desperate for this other chap to come in?

henke Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I've said for long enough you can't load your squad with frenchies thn ask them to play 442 clogball. A French manager was always a logical move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those principles, I stand by and next year, I expect to deliver on those." Starts off very well, then f***s it up with his next breath. what a t***. Why not try to play that way now though? What's stopping you from trying to instill those habits right now? I mean we've been comfortably entrenched in a non relegation position for ages now, so what are you afraid of? Besides, we're getting hammered playing it long anyway right? So it's not as if that alternative makes us more likely to pick up a result. I don't understand how this guy's brain works. Just doesn't make any sense whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 French manager is the last throw of the dice with this squad, it makes perfect sense, far too much for it to be true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Saying things like that do nothing but make me feel that it's all deliberate. He's definitely not ignorant, just egotistical and comprehensively shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Wullie nailed it in his article imo, Pardew probably is capable of more but raising expectations will just create more pressure on him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Wullie nailed it in his article imo, Pardew probably is capable of more but raising expectations will just create more pressure on him. It's not that plausible to me, deliberately failing so he won't be expected to do anything in future? Would be truly bizarre that. Was he gutted when we finished fifth and he was manager of the year? I think more likely he's just not very good, especially when under pressure and especially with players he doesn't really understand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huss9 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 "The second half of the season, we weren't. I wasn't good enough and the results weren't good enough for this club, and we need to face that to find the solution. "I will be as honest and frank as I can be as the manager on what I think we could do to improve that, and I am sure there will be opinions from Mike about what I should do better as well, and that's how it should be. "Hopefully we get the right solution for us to have a season like we had two years ago when we were competing at the top of the Premier League." Asked if he expected to still be at the helm at the start of next season, Pardew replied: "I hope so." starting to come out with this shit too late. looks like he really is starting to fear for his job.
