Keeps this up and he'll have a worse recent record than they sacked Warnock for.  Warnock was given 16 games and sacked for winning only 3 of them, Pards has 4 wins in his last 18.

 

Interesting.

I was considering chelping at Shearer on Twitter asking why ex pros are so keen to defend shit managers at the expense of current pro players when it comes to analysis.

 

Considering the experience he had with Gulliitt and SBR at our place you'd really think he'd understand what a really good manager can do with a group of average to shit players, but everytime I hear Shearer speaking he's putting all on the players.

Failed managers don't want to be seen to be criticising other managers. Harsh to call Shearer a failed manager I know but I think that's his viewpoint

Yeah he'll feel very let down by the players in that 8 game stint, and rightly so.

 

Still you'd think the hundreds of games he had as a player might also come into play[emoji38]

Time to repost this yet? From 29/12/14

 

 

Yeah. In order to win any points at all in a Pardew team you need someone up front who can make something out of nothing. Ba, Ben Arfa, Cisse, Remy etc have all done it at one time or another.

 

One of the main things we've all noticed is that if he hasn't got someone like that in form to bail him out, we go on long, long losing streaks. He has no interest whatsoever in setting up a team that can create a chance. We don't create chances as a team. Individuals score a goal due to a bit of brilliance (he talks constantly about luck and 'magic') if you haven't got that, you're stuffed because his teams aren't solid and will concede lots and lots of goals.

 

:lol:

Time to bump those posts on the palace forum now IMO

 

Nah, wait.

Exactly. Cool your jets man. Especially considering the position we're in.

i dunno like, no one ever claimed he'd relegate them this season, nor that we'd suddenly soar to unknown heights without his weight on our shoulders - we said he was shit and incapable of getting them out of the dismal runs he contrives to create; they're currently close to going over a quarter of the season without a win so we're likely to be as close to proven right about him as we'll ever be tbh

Aye - it's a fair summary of the bloke's managerial chops. Can generate a wave and ride it. You know sometimes when his team is on a roll they'll beat or have a decent performance against teh next oppo. When it's slump time, Gateshead could turn over any of his teams. Home, away it doesn't matter.

 

Yep, this is what I always said about him. Thing I didn't realise was that none of it was to do with actually knowing what he's doing with tactics etc, it was just keeping the lads happy when someone in the team happens to win a game for him.

How much of management is down to 'tactics'?

 

I think someone like SMC is a good coach but perhaps a poor tactician and has poor motivation skills. 

 

Pardew seems pretty poor at everything but can whip up tremendous team spirit and is generally liked by players.

I don't know TBH. How important a manager is in general is something that's hard to quantify. If you gave Steve Arsenal's squad he would get into the Champions League quite easily I imagine. This season has raised a lot of those type of questions.

 

The manager is just one piece in the puzzle of the club. We have an embedded culture of failure, and bad transfer policy, so any manager has a hard job on. Then again, to relegate a squad containing as many good players as this would seem to be something uniquely awful on the face of it.

 

TBH I don't know how important a manager is, 'it depends' is probably the best answer.

He's well liked by players who he'll never drop despite how bad they are, or how badly out of form they are. To be fair not that different than other managers i guess but more importantly.

 

The mans a horrendous human being, utter scum who made me hate watching the team i love. That's all that counts for me.
