Crystal Palace manager

I don't necessarily think Pardew is a bad guy. Yes he's full of excuses and talks a lot of s*** but he's no Souness or Allardyce.

As a manager he simply doesn't belong at this level. This is the pinnacle of professional football with some of the world's top managers and his one dimensional tactics just make him look ridiculous. Decent managers who played pass and move, on the deck football used to be few and far between but highly sought after. Now they're everywhere because that's the way the game is played these days. It has evolved. There are teams playing great football all the way down to league 2.

He is a football has-been and that's why he deserves to lose his job. If you don't move with the times you deserve everything you get.

 

alleged affairs with players wives, "the king" bullshit, headbuts, shoves. calling managers cunts, treatment of HBA, lack of any self-awareness or humility. that's just for starters.

And people feel sorry for that type of man for getting the abuse he gets, or getting humiliated like that at his job every weekend - looking like a bloody fucking inept fraudulent fool.

I don't think he'll walk out on that contract and I don't think Ashley will pay him off via sacking. They'll presumably come to some mutual compromise, but it'll be at least a few more games yet.

 

Yeah make him sell hot dogs in the gallowgate for his payoff.

Agree. I think we'll have to be comfortably cut adrift and in a very obviously perilous position before MA pulls the trigger.

Aye, I'm afraid that as long as your owner can look at the table and see that a win gets you out of the red zone, he won't push the trigger. So it'll take a few more games.

How are we not?

Think he's gone and I reckon his pay-off is minuscule.

Surely to God he's not going to be stupid enough to let this get into the difficult fixtures before taking action?

 

Woah there. Take a step back, a deep breath and then just think about what you've said. And who you've said it about.

 

This is the guy that appointed Alan Pardew in the first place, the guy that appointed Joe Kinnear. Twice. Who appointed a casino pleb to manage our club and who renamed our cathedral on the hill after some god awful Donnay stocking brand.

None of that put his investment in immediate risk of devaluing massively, this does.

Looking at Ashley reaction at the end of the match (not the lip-reading stuff), he looked like he was fed up of it, and seen enough.

 

Hopefully this is it.

 

As said above, we are in bad position right now, with difficult games to come. We will be truly adrift if he doesn't get rid very soon.

Exactly. He simply thinks he knows better than anyone else. Specifically when 'anyone else' is people he doesn't like; ie Geordies and journalists.

Keys and Gray absolutely ripped into him on BeIN Sports, think everyone knows it;s only a matter of time now...

 

what did they say?

 

Keys talked a fair bit about our record - 5 wins in 25 games in 2014 being relegation form and said that Ashley wasn't really interested in the club and had just bought us on a whim but that if we can't shift the owner the manager has to go, the fans deserve better etc..
