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.

 

When Paul Merson starts taking the words right out of your mouth its really time to take stock and realise you couldn't be more wrong :lol:  They'll learn though and its going to be painful, well deserved! :D

 

Even if expectations are bottom, Pardew will still surprise when they are bottom of league 1 :)

Genuinely ignorant and lazy "media" people like Merson put the words in people's mouths, not the other way round. He'll have brainwashed many, many more people with his drunken ramblings today. People like that could say the sky is green and it'd become fact because having your own opinion is so much hard work.

 

His qualifications to be on that show are simply him saying "Spowny" once a fortnight.

Unless Ashley decides to use the appointment to change his approach - it's a genuine concern.

 

On league finishes - Pardew was okay.

 

As far as league finishes go it was one very good season, one very bad, two bare minimum acceptable.  But like everyone here knows the problem isn't simply league position given the squad he has.  For a start he actively worsens the squad available.  I don't see it as a genuine concern personally.  I mean ok I suppose you could say I'm concerned we might get another s*** manager but not in the respect that I'm worried he'll be even worse than keeping king cretin or even as bad.  Even the worst manager would be no worse result wise but hard pressed to be as odious and intolerable to watch.

You spent a couple sentences to just agree with me.

 

 

Just in the league - we could do worse. Definitely.

 

I'm not agreeing though, like I just said IMO the worst manager wouldn't do any worse results wise.  My only concern is how much better the replacement will be, not if he might be worse.  Just my opinion, nothing can really concern me anymore after 4 years of Pardew.

You said he over achieved x1, dissappointed x1, average x2 - that's okay overall.

 

The attitude of the cups comes from above so I don't expect that to change.

 

So we're just left with football and results. Results won't consistently improve -we'll just sell the players that get us there. Performances? Could go either way. I'm pessimistic about the future as long as Ashley is here. The boo'ing today will mean his #1 agenda is a new yes man.

If I believed for a second that we could ever finish near 5th again under the prick I'd agree it was not that bad overall. But its very clear that the 5th finisb was a one off before he really started to stamp his shitness on everyone.  Since then our average position in the league based on total points is 15th or something isn't it? (or was it 13th?, either way shit).

 

Even if we accept that the attitude towards cups from above means things there can't improve that doesn't just leave us with league results.  There's a hell of a lot more to hate about Paradew than just poor league finishes, almost too much to name.

 

Yeah Ashley probably will continue to sell our best players,  but we'll also continue to bring good players in as well.  Can the next manager ruin as many of them?, he'll struggle to beat Pardews record.

 

OK, everyone is worried to some degree that our next manager will be shit.  I just find it hard to really be scared of the future when it includes at least some hope now, hope isn't a word you can even contemplate under the king.

That Pardew interview is so telling.

 

The interviewer tries to set him up again and again so that he can say how proud he is to be back at Palace as their manager, and on every occasion Pardew sidesteps him. This is a man who repeatedly lies through his teeth but even he can't bring himself to say that he's delighted to be there and proud to be their manager. :lol:

 

Utterly broken.

 

The best part is when he gives him the shirt :lol:

 

Interviewer: "It's time to see whether red and blue still suits you!"

Pardew: "OK." *folds the shirt*

 

:lol:

The bold part I don't agree with. Some talented players didn't work out but that's to be expected. Most of the time the cream has risen to the top.

 

My biggest personal gripe with Pardew was the quality of football but I don't expect to have a Swansea like system in place for the next manager. We seem very light in the coach department and I can't see that changing while Ashley is here.

 

Personally - Pardew is a snake but I don't really care.

 

There's no genuine hope until we have rid of Ashley and have an owner that wants our team to succeed.
