Craig 6309 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 So was he in on the whole charade or has he been made to release that statement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Couldn't be trusted to sound convincing if he said it in an interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howmanheyman 27048 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Jesus wept..... Quote Statement From Alan Pardew - Summer Transfer Window We are delighted to have brought Loic Remy to the club in this window and we believe he will form an exciting and effective partnership with Papiss Cisse. Joe has worked hard on numerous targets, particularly an additional offensive player. However some of the options that were available within our financial means were not as good as the players we already had and there is no point bringing in new players unless they can improve us and take us forward. We did the majority of our business in the January window, signing five excellent first team players. With the strong squad we have we should all approach the season in a positive, optimistic frame of mind. They forgot to put the odd 'trust me' and 'let me tell you' in that statement. Even their lies are slipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 26540 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Wow, there's more chance that he personally wrote my letter than that press release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 27048 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 At least Alan Pardew cares enough to want to put a statement out, not many managers would be told to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawD 31 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Not sure what else you would expect him to say. He either walks or sings the company tune. TBF I agree. Its all bullshit and he is probably sick to the teeth saying it as it goes against stuff he has already said. But, what else could he do? He isnt going to be critical to the club etc. But you see the dig against us at the end for being negative? Fuck off man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Why would he resign? Ashley has been clear from day 1 what the constraints placed on him are. I'm sure he's been even clearer in private. It's nothing like the Keegan thing where he was sold one vision and shafted with another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 You see, for me, I would be more onside if the club just turned round in July and said 'you know what, we're happy with what we've got, maybe add a centre forward (Remy) and if we identity someone else within our financial constraints that's too good a chance to turn down then it's a bonus.' It's the patronising contradictions I can't stand. Arse and elbows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the patronising contradictions I can't stand. Arse and elbows. I've ignored a great deal of the transfer talk, because it's bollocks and i always do. Were we not relatively clear that if Cabaye went we would spend...he didn't, so we didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the patronising contradictions I can't stand. Arse and elbows. Pretty much. Luke Edwards nailed it on twitter too. They hail the clubs solvency when it fits their angle them but that doesn't suit their story today so we're skint again and can't compete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 That's the thing, confusion rains. One week it's 'we need a few more bodies' and the next week it's 'we're fine, the squad is strong etc.' There is no clarity to it, probably because Pardew, bless him, has no fucking idea what is going on.

LooneyToony 41 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 It'a all good, mates. As long as we don't get relegated it's all good. So as long as we stay up the fans should be happy. We should all just shut up and never dream of contending for something, okay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6309 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 The words of Alan Pardew on August 23rd...... "We have to make sure we get one or two transfers over the line before deadline." What's changed in 11 days then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's it nailled on. The mouthpieces are Pardew and Kinnear. One is just being underminded to the point where he hasn't got a clue what's going on the other is just a clown who may or may not be pissed when he speaks so you either get lies or drunken ranting!
