They still have better players than some other teams, just like we had. Thank You Bosingwa (just to name one season)

Palace have better players than about 10 teams

 

Exactly. They have enough quality in there to be top 10 easily, especially considering the players have been bought specifically to fit Pardew's brief of defending deep then winning it with a bit of magic or a hump towards a beast of a centre forward. Benteke, Cabaye, Reme, Zaha, Townsend....that's a lot more than most clubs can boast in the premier attack wise. Then when you consider he chased Tomkins for five years and spends four days a week working on defence, you have to wonder what excuses he has left?

League record in 2015 was 19-6-14 (very quickly worked out so may not be 100% accurate). That's 63 points on top of the 41 from 2014 and 2016 to date. Combined that's 104 over three whole years, giving an average of 34.6 per year (likely relegation over a full season). He might be able to get that up slightly if he can pick up a few points before the end of December.

If I had Twitter I'd respond with:

 

1. Geordies don't like him because he's from London.

2. Geordies have unrealistic expectations.

3. He took NUFC to fifth. Ungrateful fans.

4. SackPardew campaign way over the top, embarrassing.

5. He was hamstrung by Ashley, did a great job in the circumstances. Injuries and player sales under his nose too.

In a bizarre way, i kind of miss the days when the SackPardew campaign was at it's height. Some of the stuff that came out, like the Welsh Town banner, were hilarious. That banner alone was genius.

 

:lol: Yeah, now it's all "Thank You Rafa" and "Rafalution" and "Hey, another win!" and "Whoa, that looked like football!" Bo-Ring.

Anyone else hear what he said about Mick Lowes on Total Sport tonight :lol:

Aye and that because Lowes had spent time in London he was more understanding and got what Pardew was about :lol:

"This is my ninth Premier League season and I want 10 with Palace," said Pardew, who took over in January 2015.

 

"A win would make our position look clearer and take the pressure off of us. I'm an experienced manager and I have been in this situation before."

 

No shit, Alan. No fucking shit.
