Guest firetotheworks Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Merson needs his head kicked in He hates us, I remember him making unnecessarily derogatory comments about the derby a few seasons back. Aye, and then being forced to apologise. "No one in London cares about the Tyne Wear Derby" or something along those lines. To which Stelling accurately responded with "No one in the North East cares about the London Derbies" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Also said Villa were a far bigger club than Newcastle as well, when discussing where a player would choose to play. Can't remember which player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teasy Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 This was it: Did he actually claim in that video that Villa get the same gates as us or did I mishear it? The man's a total fuckwit, doesn't even think before he speaks and the worst thing is even obvious bollocks like that gets allowed to go without reply from anyone around him. EDIT: He's ranting now about Swansea not putting out a full first team in their cup game. Talking about how clubs that can't win the league have to give it their all in the cups, yet Pardew did a "unbelievable" job here Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Here is a Palace fan on another forum I go on, and here is my response. ^^^ Paul Merson has just taken the words out of my mouth on SSN. Newcastle fans expectations are ridiculously high. I expect us to finish bottom, Pardew literally cannot disappoint me.This last week has been a big hoot for us watching Merson. He says we only want a Geordie as a manager, erm I can't think of one who is wanted by the supporters, Bruce?, don't be silly. He says we hate Londoners, Houghton was well liked, Rob Lee, Les Ferdinand, all people from London, all liked by supporters up here. He says clubs who aren't going to win the league should focus on the cups, have you seen Pardew's record here? There is so much more shit that the guy how spouted in the last week, honestly there isn't a reason why Newcastle fans shouldn't take legal action against him for the slander he's spread. In fact an NUFC forum I'm a member of are actually in the process of making an official complaint about him to Sky, not that it will do any good. Do Newcastle fans expect to be winning the league and cups?, no, do we expect to be in the CL places?, no. I tell you what we do expect though, we expect to compete, we want to attack teams and play good football. With Pardew we sat back in every game, with Pardew he actively sent us out to go out of the cups. I love it when a fan from another club who probably hasn't seen much aside from the 2 minutes of highlights of MOTD we get every week come out and talk about us, saying what our expectations are etc. Maybe you have it right though, maybe all we do think is that we are 20 points ahead at the top of the league, maybe the other day when I was at the Burnley match I walked back to my car ******* devastated that we didn't lose 4-3, because we all know how much we would rather lose 4-3 than win 1-0. A myth born out of 2 games that actually broke the hearts of every single Newcastle fan at the time, but we ******* loved it because we didn't win 1-0. Ok fair enough you expect to finish last, and anything above that will be a bonus, including just staying up. Lets say you do go down, well look at West Ham and Charlton who he took down. It took 2 years for West Ham to come back up and even then that was via the last place in the play offs with what was arguably the best squad in the Championship. With Charlton the slide just continued and eventually he was sacked. So if you go down will you accept mid table mediocrity in the Championship? Lets say you stay up which considering you still have some decent players and Pardew hasn't fully integrated himself into the club it's still a decent possibility. Lets say you survive every year?, how many seasons will it take for you to then want to move on?, to then want to play attacking football (Pardew has already said that you are going to be playing more direct)? Pardew may well keep you up, but he'll not take you to the next level, and considering you finished in mid table and just behind us last season I don't see why you can't get a manager who will be able to do that. Believe it or not but I think Palace are good enough to stay up and probably should be staying up, you really shouldn't be lowering your expectations so low.
