Ronaldo Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 When did Shearer 'stand by' Roeder? We finished 7th under him when Shearer was there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 To be fair to Shearer, he had exceptionally high standards and once said even if he wasn't producing the goods, he would work extra hard on the pitch to make up for it. I can see why he would be looking at the players, if he was in the dressing room as Captain he would be looking at the players and not so much the manager, this is why he stood by Souness and even Roeder. Roy Keane is the same, he wouldn't blame Moyes for last season, he'd blame the players. As bad as Pardew is and as responsible as he is, the players haven't performed at all. Only Cisse and the Dutch lad to my mind have played well this season, the rest haven't even got going or have had mares on a consistent basis. Gullit? I imagine even then he would have been questioning the players rather than the manager, outside of dropping him and his pals of course, regarding performances. Shearer's an ex player, not an ex manager. He will always look at the players first and foremost, right or wrong. Unlike some, I can see why he would blame the players over the manager as he was someone who when the chips were down, gave it his all or would come out fighting to rectify things. Again, Pardew is responsible for how shit we are, all the way, but the players haven't exactly done themselves any favours. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_R Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 It's just horrendous that nothing is ever the manager's fault, no matter the club and no matter the situation. They really should be able / have the balls to call an incompetent prat an incompetent prat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I don't think what Shearer has said is all that bad, just says that the players should shoulder some of the blame which is fair enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Managers, ex or wannabe, never ever come out and criticize other managers. this is it, they spend their lives from the age of probably 10 years old steeped in the culture of football, and that culture is 'closed shop', 'everything behind closed doors'...no-one is ever likely to break the cycle if they possibly have future aspirations in the game as they'll be shunned within it if they do pardew is an interesting case because i genuinely can't recall another manager with so low an ability as a football manager combined with such a reliance (you might even say expertise) on public relations to hide the fact he's a terrible manager....has it happened before? you generally get shit managers thrown to the wolves but pardew is being backed by ashley's PR people and is himself adept at convincing most of our fans he's not to blame shit managers are usually shit at explaining their shitness away but pardew isn't Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
