kingxlnc Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 (edited) My only issue was the Ben Arfa treatment Plus the playing small plus the constant advertising of players for sale plus the streaky form plus the ‘king’ stuff and constantly bigging himself up plus the Southampton brainy kids thing That’s all plus the crappy football aside from the 5th season plus complaining about Europe still agree he’s better than Bruce though Edited December 9, 2023 by kingxlnc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy that. And correct - you’d have to put Carver, Bruce, McClaren, Souness and Kinnear above him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never met you, and you may well be a smashing human, with unbelievable virtue and be one of the most eloquent and nicest humans someone could wish to meet. However, your statement means you're bereft of any brain cells, may god have mercy on your pitiful soul, I hate you and hope your joy department falls off into a well.

M4 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 (edited) Time is a great healer... Just what a few years and the passage of Steve Bruce can do. Pardew was however indeed so toxic.

And our record PL home defeat 0-6 against Liverpool. I remember a terrible run of form when every game he would just laud the opposition every game as if they were 1970s Brazil instead of just saying we were shit again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I celebrated like a madman that night it broke that he was we going to Palce. Awful manager. Hated how much of a willing mouthpiece he was too. But, look at the state of that team post Ba. Captained by a coward, very few strong characters / leaders - they were all disposed of. And few players proven or experienced in the PL, especially at that point.

The College Dropout Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 That last season he did well to win 6 or so on the bounce. That run kept us in the division when he left in the early winter. That was a shit team. SMC who most thought was a better manager, managed to get that squad relegated with Mitrovic, Wijnaldum added to it., Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superior Acuña Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 The few weeks where we lost 3-0 to the mackems and 6-0 to Liverpool were my worst supporting the club. A dead club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 I still remember the night the news broke that he was away to Palace, was about eight or nine deep into our annual post-Christmas pub crawl, everyone was going absolutely mental celebrating Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
