henke Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Said it a million times, but i'd take being bottom after a few games if it got rid of him. How bad does he have to be to get the sack though? In the 2nd half of last season he lost damn near every game, alienated our most gifted player and stuck the nut on an opposing player - and survived. Unless his name crops up in operation yewtree he's going nowhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His sole target is to keep us in the prem, if he doesn't look like he's delivering that he'll be gone. I fucking hate the bloke, he could win us the league and I still think I'd want him dead.

mofo Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Willing to give him another chance, 15 points in the first 5 games is the target. Providing he can achieve this and stops being a total cunt, I'm more than willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. Anything less and I will continue to hate the horrible man.

Dave Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 He'll last this season unless we're in the bottom three going into January. That might cause panic and rather than spend money they might give Kinnear a go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 He'll last this season unless we're in the bottom three going into January. That might cause panic and rather than spend money they might give Kinnear a go. I reckon we will pick up just enough points in first 10 games to keep him in a job. We still have a better team than most outside that top 7 and will scrape a fair few results.I reckon if we start bad he is gone this time though because of the amount of new players brought in.

Ronaldo Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 It comes down to the fans. They can easily make his position untenable. Either by staying away as I do or the vocal attacks heard against Cardiff. Only a matter of time before someone physically goes for him, too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose relegation, or the threat of it is the key. Because it threatens Ashleys income. But for Ashley to sack Pardew he has to replace him, and to bring a new manager in means promising the new man a transfer fund, which won't happen. So the only manager that could follow Pardew would be an absolute no-mark. Not that I'm saying I want Pardew should stay. After last season he should have been chained up in the street so people could throw shit at him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 At least hes aware that we need a better style of football. He usually seems utterly oblivious to any problems the team has. He's constantly saying it but he does fuck all about it. He just lies to try and appease people who are stupid enough to believe what comes out of his ringpiece.

I hope you're right on both fronts, though I have less confidence in the fan base's collective wisdom to exercise any such power they might have.

Ronaldo Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 That's the thing, though, it doesn't have to be especially cohesive. It'll get to the point where 95% are strongly against him, especially now that money has actually been spent (though the squad remains weak or weaker) and the ignorant Pardew defenders have no retort left. It'll get very, very ugly for him if results follow a similar pattern to those in the latter half of 13-14. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's constantly saying it but he does f*** all about it. He just lies to try and appease people who are stupid enough to believe what comes out of his ringpiece. He constantly says the shit people want to hear but never acts upon it. He doesn't know how to. Passing football requires a lot of forward movement from players and that takes genuine Keegan type belief in the philosophy that he will never have.

Jordan Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I don't get why after every season we have people say he deserves another chance. Why the fuck does he deserve another chance? because we fluked our way to 5th playing fucking awful football except 6 games. He's an embarrassment to have associated to the club as a person and it just sums up how much of a joke this club is that this clown is still in a job. A big reason he's still in a job is because our fans are spineless fuckers who think a bloke who knew exactly what he was walking into has been given a tough time. The players he's worked with ( and destroyed) over his years here would be phenomenal with a manager like Keegan, players like HBA, Marveaux, Cisse, Remy, MYM, Carroll, Sissoko, Anita and Ba. Any other manager would have any of the squads he's had whilst managing us set up to attack teams but this cowardly cunt has us defending 1-0 leads against newly promoted sides, ostracising players because they don't defend enough because they've spent their entire fucking development training to be a fucking attacking player.

Cronky Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I'd say one last chance. Last season, he had to put up with Kinnear, and I think he seems much more comfortable working with Charnley. I'm not expecting top six, but I do want to see an improvement in the quality of our football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I think he'll last the season, unfortunately. We'll do similarly to last year, in terms of position, but will be more consistent rather than a pretty good period followed by months of utter crap.

mozy Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 What we will get is a huge level of inconsistency in results as per. Certain teams struggle against the hoofball we inflict so invariably that means the odd 'Freee' points. The talented squad we have will keep us in midtable boredom until the cycle repeats itself and the good ones choose to follow the ambition. I hope to be proved wrong.

huss9 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 what would get him the sack? our results couldn't get any worse than the second half of last season, and that cunts behaviour couldn't be any more disgraceful. nee chance he's going anywhere.
