timeEd32 Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Imagine if Hull didn't need to be a poisonous atmosphere to get him out but was instead a celebration of his demise. Giddy just thinking about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmonkey Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Is Pardew a multimillionaire? Unless he's thrown money away with a gambling addiction, he must be. Professional/Premiership footballer, manager, numerous sackings and compensation, TV pundit, newspaper column, the 8 year contract was supposedly worth £20m+ according to a few of the rags (no doubt performance related but I can imagine him getting a couple of million per season for keeping us in the Premiership).

Guest reefatoon Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 That Graeme Bailey guy (who seemed to have some good info on transfers over the summer) has tweeted that Pardew is one heavy defeat away from the sack. http://i.cubeupload.com/EPRkzD.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 He has a massive ego and thinks he's special - simple as that imo. He's in an exclusive job that millions of people in this country alone would love to have yet would never be eligible for/considered, he's a multimillionaire in a position that (in theory, and in his presence anyway) inherently commands respect from some players, staff, media outlets, fans, etc, he's relatively famous and has a newspaper column, he almost certainly has some hot women throwing themselves at him and is probably the center of attention in his personal life - of course he thinks he's good at what he does because his position in life reflects that of a highly successful individual in the greater scheme of things. I don't for a second think he's remotely aware of how s*** he is at this job, hence why he comes out with things like "if I was on the touchline I might have prevented that goal". Like Allardyce, the man is delusional as to his abilities as a coach, the type of football that his team plays, and his own importance, and no doubt writes off all of these criticisms aimed at him as coming from people who know far less than himself and who don't appreciate the constraints he's working under. Probably also blames the "system" that hasn't given them a fair crack of the whip (i.e. if they were coaching ManU or Barcelona they'd do alot better) and the foreign managers for taking all the top jobs. "If my name was Pardici....". He reminds me of the South Park episode "Fish Sticks" when Kenny says to Cartman that his ego is so big that it does whatever it can to protect itself, performing "mental gymnastics" to convince him that he's awesome. Just look at Pardew's attempts to re-write history with his recollection of Javier Mascherano being in the reserves under him (after initially starting games). All the PR stuff he comes out with in the media where he says "X/Y/Z wasn't good enough" followed by "I need to do better in this area", that's where he's lying imo - he probably thinks he did nothing wrong but is having to placate angry fans by accepting some of the responsibility of the failure caused by his players to not jump high enough and not run fast enough. Yes, a lot of what you say is very correct. He would have an ego indeed, but more out of his position and status. Certainly would delude him into thinking he was something special as a manager. He is absolutely disgusting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovejoy Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 May have already been said, but don't the club usually take legal action against articles with no substance? Has that been done with the independent article about him having two games? I'm not aware that they've ever taken legal action against any newspaper? They've threatened to but have we seen them in court, and win? As for the Independent article, the newspaper says it 'understands', and carries no direct quotes. Also, as the games in question have yet to take place, how can we ascertain that the article has 'no substance. It's not actionable even if he lasts until 2018. by legal action, i meant a lgeal letter and demand of an apology. pretty much what they´ve done to the telegraph today, and to others in the past.

magpie1892 Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I don't even think it's ego per se with him. I just think he's a downtrodden, insecure gimp try trying to con himself into delusions of success. from the stories you hear he's got a massive ego problem though no? I think it's just him acting as if. There's no ego big enough on the planet to withstand getting sacked from Championship and League One clubs and still come out with the rubbish he does. It's pretence and self-delusion. Your last sentence doesn't go far enough. I actually think he's mentally ill - there is a great deal of evidence to back up this (semi-)amateur diagnosis. He displays Neuropsychosis, Sociopathy, Narcissistic personality disorder, and others. He's really unwell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Just follow Ashley around the Casino on Saturday night and the bloke that laughs hardest at his jokes, gets him drinks and and basically crawls up his arse that much that it makes you you cringe, will be our next gaffer..................................................shit I've just described pardew.

Like I said, the Independent story would not have been legally actionable. Sending a lawyers' letter (which would not be sent to a newspaper as it's not in the PCC tariff of complaints) isn't legal action, nor is asking for an apology or even asking for, and getting, a retraction. None of these things have happened. As you correctly observe they just ban newspapers willy-nilly. I maintain this is actually more about money than anything else.

I don't know what wage he's on but at 5k per week over 4yrs if you make your money work well for you you shouldnt be far off, thats a basic of £260,000 per year (then tax off obviously but they all seem to work with these legal tax avoidance schemes) they certainly won't be paying 40% Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
