'If you kept Pardew you would not have been relegated'

 

Well let's put this straight. Pardew is all about boom and bust football, he goes on boom spells, then goes on bust spells, let's not forget that he's very much a negative tactician (if you can call him tactician) as well. Over his time here is boom cycles were getting smaller, and his bust cycles getting bigger, and his league positioning was slipping further and further down. There is nothing to suggest that it would get better, all the evidence points to it getting worse.

 

Now the 2 point Imm going to make is the biggest one.

 

Rafa Benitez has shown in a short space of time that if we got a decent enough manager in (could arguably have signed up Benitez when Pardew left to arrive in the summer before Madrid came in for him, it was expected that he would have left Napoli at the end of the season). Anyway good results, improving performances and more team cohesion during his short space of time has indicated that instead of hanging on to a manager who wouldn't relegate is (very much debatable), we could have in fact had a manager who pushed us up the league. If Rafa's 10 games in charge wasn't enough evidence of that, then surely the appointments from Liecester and West Ham where they replaced managers who 'don't take teams down' and have pushed up, obviously in Liecesters case it worked beyond their wildest dreams, but surely they along are evidence to why teams should never settle for these types of manager and their myth of not taking teams down.

 

Note: I'm not making these points to you all, just making it in general.

Super Al after his annual thrashing at Southampton:

 

Palace boss Alan Pardew: "I thought our performance was good, actually. I think two shocking decisions gifted them two goals.

 

Wonder what their fans make of this

Beginning to cultivate a comb over

[Troll]

  Benitez has picked up more points in the last 6 games than Pardew has since January.

 

If we'd kept him, we'd probably have ended up in an even worse situation - we wouldn't have replaced him with Benitez, we'd have replaced him with McClaren.

[Mr. Snrub]

The hate is strong over here.

Ended 5 points from the bottom 3?

 

Swear they were gonna get Europe though. Ian Wright told me

Chance yet.

A comment from him yesterday:

 

'We had a few problems going into this game, I'm hoping they'll all clear themselves up. They usually do, cup final week, I find. Hopefully that'll be the case'.

 

Questioning the integrity of his players.  So glad he's history.

Just fuck off forever. Crystal Palace after Newcastle United? I thought Souness was the biggest cunt we'd ever employed but at least he had some ambition.

[Deuce]

"beech"

[Stifler]

If Palace sacked him before the final then I'd gladly cheer them on for the cup final, it's not Palace I dislike, it's this cunt. Assuming Palace lose the final then this cup run could have been the worst thing to happen to their club as it's kept him in a job. The success Liecester and West Ham have had by binning English clogged managers for good managers should be enough for Palace to look as see that with the right man they can aspire to more than winning the relegation battle year after year.

"They usually do, cup final week, I find."

 

Been there loads of times haven't you, Alan. What a tool.

[Incognito]

My hatred of this cunt knows no boundaries. Having to break the habit of a lifetime Saturday and want Manchester United to win a trophy. And not just win it, win it by an embarrassingly high margin.

Fucking hell

[Interpolic]

Hasn't he been in like one cup final as a manager?

[Wallace]

Can you imagine what he would be like if they win on Saturday?  He never misses the opportunity to mention he won Manager of the Year once so we would never hear the end of it.

 

And it would always be "when I won" not "when we won".

[JH]

Not even this guy romping home with the FA Cup could ruin my week if Rafa signs.

Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew has been speaking ahead of Saturday's FA Cup final against Manchester United.

 

Pardew played in the 1990 final between the teams, which United won after a replay.

 

"1990 in many ways made this club," he said.

 

"It would be good for football, for the DNA of this club to win a trophy, we play street football, with players from different roots. This group has the opportunity to put something permanent there, the first major trophy for this club."

That can't be real.
