Monroe Transfer 0 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Apparently Ashley has told SSN Pardew still has his backing . Â Thankfully, he's not going to tell SSN that he's sacking Pardew, just before a game especially. Â Plus the dreaded vote of confidence etc. Â Keep the faith!

Dr Gloom 20198 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Fuck me, just listening to Pardew's post match comments on motd. Apparently it was a tremendous result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 3646 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 We were terrific and magnificent yesterday apparently. You'd think we'd drawn against Bayern away and not versus Hull at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooper 940 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 "I think our fans are realistic – they know the top six is beyond us"  "We can’t compete with those clubs at the moment"  "But we should be competing for seventh, eighth, ninth, 10th, 11th. We have proven that we can do that in the past"  He said this yesterday yet in July after signing De Jong, Riveriere, Cabella & Janmaat he said  "We pitched in and signed players that we think will give us a chance to push on for the Champions League"  Fanks but which one is it Alan ?

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 It's fucking pathetic what he said yesterday (see Trooper's post).

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 (edited) Funny thing is, I kind of agree with what Pardew is saying about what we can achieve. Realistically, we'll be midtable at best.But I'm not the manager of the football club, and if I was I absolutely wouldn't dream of expressing such a lack of ambition in public. What kind of a message is that? How does that inspire the fans, or the players? Why would top players want to join a club whose manager openly states that we're a midtable club and that we should aim to be? Why would fans get excited throughout the season when we know the target is midtable, that we're not going to bother going for the top 6, and that we don't care about the cups. It's pathetic.We're not going to be competing with Man City and Chelsea for the title, but why not Spurs, Everton etc? On paper I don't see how we "can't compete" with the likes of those clubs. We finished fifth a couple of seasons back, it's not impossible. Why not just take each game as it comes and just see what happens? Â What makes it worse is he's trying to give the fans credit - "our fans are realistic". Â "But we should be competing for seventh, eighth, ninth, 10th, 11th. We have proven that we can do that in the past" - Is this meant to imply some sort of achievement has been gained? "We have proven we're average enough to finish midtable"? Â He shoots himself in the foot every single weekend with the nonsense he comes out with. Edited September 21, 2014 by Monroe Transfer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 What a bellend. Is there any point in watching us now Alan? Play utterly dross football, draws at home to Hull are tremendous, we wont bother with the cups, the Europa League is a distraction and now 6th is far beyond us. Agree with MT, even though 7th and down is probably right (especially with the smug cunt managing them) you don't come out and fucking say that.

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Part of me also thinks he's just doing his boss' bidding and publicly reining in our (already low) expectations. Mentioning stuff like the Champions League earlier on in the summer to sell a few more season tickets, replica shirts. Â Bet Ashley was more angry that he was on the receiving end of some of the unrest (as opposed to it all being aimed at his lapdog), than he was about the goals conceded and the result.

Tooj 17 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Funny thing is, I kind of agree with what Pardew is saying about what we can achieve. Realistically, we'll be midtable at best.

trooper 940 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 As long as we dont finish lower than 17th Ashley will be satisfied. The players and Pardew may not get their bonuses but as long as were in the premiership its all that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monroe Transfer 0 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Â I disagree. Put a Martinez in charge and we'd be saying different. Â To be fair, I was talking about a Pardew-led NUFC team. Put a better manager in his place and even with our obvious squad shortcomings, my expectations would comfortably improve.

Â He shoots himself in the foot every single weekend with the nonsense he comes out with. That's this cunt all over though, isn't it? (Pardew, not you, Zanetti). Â That complete and utter tosspot, David fucking Craig yesterday on Sky's Soccer Saturday, managing to do what no other media person can and have a good natter with Ashley, (Which should assure everyone that Craig is in his pocket), spewing forth his Master's propaganda about not being able to compete with the Mancs and Russian cash at Chelsea to win a title, (nice to see Mourinho questioning whether Man City should be stripped of their trophies by the way, what a complete lack of self awareness from another myopic twat, but at least the London Journalists love him, bless his little cheeky Portuguese socks). Err, where was I? Ah yes, our unrealistic expectations of trying to win a title according to Mike Ashley's football spokesman, David 'Propa Reet Bo' Craig. Unbelievable, indeed Jeff.

luckyluke 1 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Did you hear that story on football weekly from Pardew's West Ham days? He was at a dinner and took someone else's plate from under there eyes, justifying it by saying "when you're the king, you can do what you like".
