KaKa Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Hats off to the guys who made the effort with those signs. Lot of respect for them all. It's at least forced more of a discussion about Pardew's many failings, rather than continuously being told how great he is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybe_next_year Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Jordan's banner makes the back page of tomorrow's Express: https://twitter.com/suttonnick/status/460901372016459776/photo/1 Well done Jordan and the others who held up their banners and cards, but the protests were muted vocally and until that changes, Pardew stays. Completely true. He'll probably think it's a small minority at this point. Protests were loud, clear and relatively constant in the away end, were they not loud on the tv? (Seriously question, just read this back and it sound like I'm being an arsehole) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fugazi Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Has there been a lot of banners shown?? Could someone collect them all into a post? http://i.imgur.com/cpt2zZK.jpg eeh that's my mate giving it the v's. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 From being in the away end, the protests could had been louder but considering we were in a library all game they should had been heard on TV. Think the amount of southern based fans at the game made the protests less vicious, though when I heard one fan signing Pardew's right Ben Arfa's shite I almost flipped.

timeEd32 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Apologies if this has been posted: http://www.espnfc.com/blog/_/name/thematch/id/2745?cc=5901 Part 1 discusses our incredibly simple tactics, but here's part 2 which is nice to read from an outsider: 2. Pardew out/Liverpool licking their lips It’s difficult to remember a Premier League team playing with as little commitment as this Newcastle United side. It’s worth outlining, too, that Newcastle were a genuinely impressive outfit for the first half of the campaign, with Loic Remy on fire and Yohan Cabaye amongst the best midfielders in the division. Newcastle beat Chelsea, Tottenham and Manchester United. The results since Christmas have been disastrous, the level of effort unacceptable. In a run taking into account their first encounter with Arsenal, a 1-0 defeat in the final game of 2013, they have lost 13 of their past 18 games, 12 of them without scoring. They might be ninth, but in terms of points, they’re as close to relegation as they are to seventh-place Manchester United. Injuries have played a part, Cabaye’s departure to PSG was a significant blow, but this performance was so bad that you’d forgive the traveling support if they’d departed at the break, attempting to beat the London Underground strike that commenced midway through the second half. Remy had a one-on-one opportunity in the second half, but there was alarmingly little creativity from a very flat Newcastle midfield. The chants from Newcastle’s fans were insistent. “It’s never your fault,” they sang -- accompanying a banner mocking Alan Pardew’s constant excuses. “It’s six in a row,” was another, as was “We want Pardew out” and “We’re gonna have a party, when Pardew gets the sack.” Get the picture? For the first time since his headbutt on David Meyler eight games ago, Pardew was on the touchline to face the music. Newcastle might play a role in the title race, considering they travel to Liverpool on the final day of the season. If both Liverpool and Manchester City win all their remaining games, the title will come down to goal difference, and while Liverpool currently trail City by eight in that tally (and City have an extra game to build up a further advantage), facing Newcastle at home on the final day is perfect for Brendan Rodgers' side. It might sound stupid, but a Liverpool side needing to rack up a hatful of goals to claim their first Premier League title could batter this Newcastle side by 10 goals. Football sides rarely win matches by that margin, primarily because there are seldom circumstances which require it. They conserve energy and take pity on their opponents. But Newcastle are playing without courage or belief, and on the final day with nothing to play for, will almost certainly play at half-speed. A rampant Liverpool, with Daniel Sturridge and Jordan Henderson back in the side, could attack relentlessly in front of a vociferous home support. Liverpool were 5-0 up against Arsenal (then top of the table) within 52 minutes. What damage could they inflict on a Newcastle side that, frankly, couldn’t care less?

Ryan_Taylor Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 The Liverpool game won't even be funny if Pardew manages to survive it. Surely they're going to rape us into oblivion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbo Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Coloccini's a f***ing disgrace and has been for months. Gets away with murder on here. He's wrecking a lot of goodwill he had built up from some excellent seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettNUFC Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 People keep going on about how they want us to lose, then complain when our players don't try and let us lose Was just thinking the same, bemoaning Colo that we got beat but they wanted us to get beat? Doesn't make sense. If he had a stormer and gained us a point they would be moaning he's helped Pardew... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny Green Balls Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I think that's an extremely simplistic way of looking at it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybe_next_year Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Us losing may be something we want to improve us in the future, but that doesn't stop performances like Colo's recently being disappointing. We know Pardew is shit, but the players should still respect the shirt and give 100% on the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettNUFC Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 But if you want us to lose surely you're hoping for a bad performance? Especially if you want 4/5/6 against? I'm not of this opinion, I wish colo had a stormer and we battered Arsenal. Wasn't to be though and we put in another poor display. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinny Green Balls Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Wanting us to lose, and criticizing players for not bothering to show up are not necessarily contradictory. Stop using the 1's and 0's Principle, man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
