Guest RJberger Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I wouldn't expect him to slate another manager, just showing a bit of sympathy would be more than enough. He's gone far beyond that there though. making excuses for his poor results and claiming the board are now getting their reward for sticking by him. The way Im reading it is that Pardew should/normally would have been gone ages ago going by results, for some reason ( which are beyond him ie he doesnt agree with ) board decided to stick with Pardew and suddenly we win 4 on the trot. So in that context, he is right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 As the saying goes, while 'you can only beat whats in front of you', you can pick holes in all of the last 4 wins. Leicester - after a decent start to the season, the pace seems to be catching up with them and their form is slipping. We scraped a 1-0 win. Spurs - European hangover, not in best of form generally either. Preferred striker (Cisse) unfit so Pardew forced to start Perez, who scores winner. Man City - rested a few players who'd normally start and didn't play as well as normal, whilst with the line-up he picked, Pardew could never have dreamt we'd actually get a result. Players deserve huge credit for that result. Liverpool - Another team not playing well so far this season, missing key players/striker(s). Obviously confidence is growing which has also helped build momentum, but to suggest this run is down to Pardew (as some of the media are), is very short sighted.

Cronky Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I imagine that Pardew will be thinking that Keegan's support would have been a lot more useful 2 or 3 weeks ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 The London press probably had a hand in it. They must be desperate for Fat Sam not to get it as that will mean another 2 months at least of him staying in the job. He's in a similar position to Pardew in that he's a clueless cunt who's taken advantage of some good signings done over his head. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozy Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 The difference is that Fat Sam is still playing aids hoofball but he's signed players who fit it (Cresswell and Jenkinson excellent crossers, Song to provide enough quality and control from the holding role, the criminally underrated Amalfitano and a couple of pacey, athletic strikers who love to run, chase, jump and shoot). He's also stumbled upon Stewart Downing's golden summer as a CAM and a formation that binds it together. Sooner or later he will try and change it to bring Carroll and Nolan back in and they will finish bottom half again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paully Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 What the hell is this?! Manager of which month? To blazes with anyone involved in this! No chance he'll get it! We scraped a point at Swansea, scraped a win vs Leicester and put a decent 2nd half in at Spurs after a shambolic 1st half to win. West Ham won all their games including a win against the champions and a London derby! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Fat Sam has it in the bag. He's the only one with a 100% record. Pardew had to be nominated because we had the second best form. Means nowt beyond that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 “There are two types of coaches. There’s coaches like me who weigh up the opposition and ask the team to adjust. Fergie was similar. Jose [Mourinho] is similar. Then there’s Arsène, who won’t adjust. There’s Brendan [Rodgers], who looks like he won’t adjust. There’s Manuel Pellegrini, who looks like he won’t adjust, even in the Champions League. He seems to favour what he’s got. City are quite open. “Their [Wenger/Rodgers/Pellegrini’s] philosophy is different to ours. Ours is more about who are we playing against. Their philosophy is more, ‘We always play this way’, and they won’t change, they carry doing on the same thing. That’s why you can beat them. - Fat Sam Just talking about manager of the month and there's Fat Sam's philosophy laid out in a nutshell, not dissimilar to our own dear leader. He's letting his mouth go after winning a few games. Again the similarity is uncanny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest RJberger Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 http://www.football365.com/faves/9541125/Football-Managers-On-TV-Alan-Pardew "Philosophy Chippy. Seems, out of nowhere, to have fostered a team spirit up in Newcastle, drawing on the tired-and-tested "Us Against the World" technique. In Pardew's case, the paranoia might be justified: people genuinely seem not to like him. Almost impossible to say what sort of football he likes his sides to play because he rarely seems to get into that side of things. What is the Pardew way? He doesn't tell us. Oozes an odd mixture of self-regard and persecution complex and appears to be permanently, if understandably, on the defensive." Might have to go home early, pissing myself.
