TRon Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I just think he's not going to get sacked no matter what, so we might have to try to take some enjoyment somewhere. I am in the same boat, and I actually enjoyed that win yesterday and celebrated our goals for the first time this season. But I'm still massively conflicted and I will enjoy abusing him when we lose just as much. Why? because he will take us all for another ride which ends up going nowhere.

I think it's down to the fact it's a cup game which we hypothetically now have a 1 in 8 chance of winning. But mostly I think it's because it was youngsters and fringe players playing well, and there actually seemed to be a purpose about the way we played.

I got the nervous feeling when we were 1-0, which shows something is still bubbling under. Obviously nobody will change their opinion on Pardew unless we do something crazy like have two good seasons in a row. We also have quite a lot of likeable players IMO, so that helps a bit. Overall I still feel very little mind, especially when we concede and lose as we've usually brought it on ourselves through idiotic selections and tactics.

Newintoon Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Arghh all these cunts on skysports news, so alan pardew does know what he's doing then, chuckle chuckle! Well fucking no clearly not unless his master plan was to win 1 league game in 15 then win 2 in a row and a cup game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I still have no idea where this spirit and effort has come from. Why are they suddenly playing for him? Could easily have lied down against Hull or Swansea, and losing to Spurs and Man City is nothing to be ashamed of. Yet they're battling for this cunt and I don't know why. i think they were all sleeping, not giving a fuck, including pardew, thinking they could coast to 10th no bother and get their bonus...probably half-arsing it in training etc. while the HBA/MYM circus rumbled along the campaign against him and resultant media attention woke everyone up, probably not least pardew, who'll have known he was gone if he didn't turn it around furthermore when he's picking his favourites when and where he wants them it's not like they're doing that much - it's aarons, perez, (back from being broken) cisse etc. who have dug him out not his favourite gouffran's, colback's and dummett's but now the confidence is up it'll spread obviously Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Was having a 'chat' with someone on FB last night, who was questioning whether I gave Pardew any credit for the last two wins. I said no, as the players were being given a lot of stick (by some media and fans) for the losing/winless run, yet Pardew was given sympathy. So now they won a few games, I'd give the credit to the players. Last night, he basically set the team up for damage limitation, with 5 across the middle, and leaving 'key' players on the bench in favour of the weekends league match. By pure crazy luck, some younger players stepping up, and Man City not playing to their potential, we actually won, but Pardew will be claiming to be a tactical genius. I'll wait to see how long this little run lasts, and whether its a flash in the pan. Alternatively, the protests/pressure on the manager may have simply bred a siege mentality, thats brought the squad together, and is starting to produce results. thus... keep it going!!!

Lush Vlad Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I still have no idea where this spirit and effort has come from. Why are they suddenly playing for him? Could easily have lied down against Hull or Swansea, and losing to Spurs and Man City is nothing to be ashamed of. Yet they're battling for this c*** and I don't know why. I'm sure I've read somewhere that he is a 'players' manager? Fuck knows where and I'm unsure why any player would like him. Save for the mediocre cloggers that he selects in his team no matter what. They surely must see that he is clueless and very limited? I mean, when we were doing the Williamson free kick routine last night. I did wonder what the players must be thinking when we try shit like this week in week out. Throw in the fact he's an egotistical tosser, I'm not sure why anyone would play so hard for him? It's quite ironic that Cisse and Obertan have been big factors in saving his career here after the way he treated them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I can understand how the majority of footballers could like Pardew, they are quite simplistic in how they see the game too. Most footballers probably don't have many tactical ideas or anything like that. Danny Murphy still maintains Pardew is one of the best coaches he's ever worked for. Good example of what I mean.

mozy Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 They like Pardew because he gives them an easy ride and makes excuses on behalf of bad displays. 'Come on lads, 12th place is fine. If you get stuffed 4-0 i'll play excuse bingo again.' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 It's mostly the shit players who like him IMO. The ones who are happy to play for a mid-table premier club with no ambition. I wouldn't go off last night either, that was just a bunch of kids whooping it up at the chance to play a full match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 "We've got a good young group, I've been saying that for a while now" - Hmmmm. Really. "Armstrong was really great in that lone role, it's his best position ... he didn't get much of the ball, but he worked really hard" - What you want from your striker really. Don't bother touching the ball. Just work hard. "Dummett is a player that will end up at centre back. This is a player that has a great future, going forward" - But he's not 6 ft 4 Alan.
