That Reading game was an important step in my recovery.

 

:lol:

 

I love these posts from you Ian. It's like you took the red pill and are now fully conscient of how things really are.

It wasn't so much bringing Cabaye off, yes he's just coming back from injury. It's bringing off our best player in the game, who'd scored the goal that had put us ahead and was running the show, to sit back and try to hold onto a one goal lead which we lose and are then unable to get back into the game.

 

It was the timing as well though. Cabaye is playing class, nearly scores again then he's brought off.

 

A manager should understand the atmosphere of the game and how it can swing in favour of the opponent. Especially when the lead is 1-0.

 

FWIW I would have made Cabaye carry on even if he was carried out of SJP at the end. This game was absolutely critical.

I thin it was fair to have a "wait and see" attitude with Pardew until at least the Reading game and maybe a few months after that.

 

He did lead us to our best season ever since we became a shit nothing club. Given the magnitude of that 5th-place finish, it's perfectly natural that a lot of people needed a bit of convincing before deciding it was an aberration.
