Howay

Fascinating bit of background on the Ince family there, can we have one on the Bruce family please?

I noticed that as well, I'd rather have a draw Alan.

Aye Garth Crooks moaning on about it but has he bothered getting any of his badges?The Rooney rule is fucking pointless anyway as doesn't it just mean they get an interview?

Getting ditched by Wonga

We've got a likeable manager and lovable owner, stop complaining Fish. I don't know what these deluded jaaaaahdees expect. Agree with most of DK's sentiments, I'm not really arsed who leaves. I have no connection to them and we wont see them anywhere near their best under our manager for life, fanks mike.

Needs more money to keep them 3 mingers well stocked with make up. No surprise mind, shame we've not really seen the best out of him for most of his time here. Fanks Alan.

No lads he's definitely right, Williamson, Taylor and Colocinni are all far better than this bloke. After all he has played 37 games, hasn't started all of those mind, but he did play some of them in his favored position. We all also know in the games he played poorly in the rest of the team was fucking stellar as well. Remember how immense Colocinni and Jose Enrique looked when they first arrived, their first 40 games were astounding. They started basically all of them as well and were never played out of position. We also know Pardew has a proven track record of getting the most out of his players, so all in all the evidence is clear.

Aye they'll be kicking themselves for that one. It's mental tbh, the decline of Colocinni and the fact that Williamson and Taylor have very little upside and are both average at best just adds to the craziness in this decision. I hope Pardew gets his walking paper ASAP and the new bloke rates MYM, as honestly with a decent coach he'd be a perfect successor to Colo, CT can fuck off with his "he can't physically hack the league he even said it himself" garbage as well, the bloke is far more athletic, looks taller and is bigger then Colo and he has managed more than fine until recently.

Yanga-Mbiwa starting Centre back tonight for Roma in the Champions League, I'm so glad we got rid of him we're faaaaaar stronger in defence now he has gone. I'm sure he's also devastated.

Still not sacked! Go ahead Mike you daft shite just leave this idiot in charge it's only going one way if you do and the later you leave it the less chance the next bloke has. Swansea will cuff us 4-0, he has to go after that. Like others have said it has gotten to the point of no return tbh, the fans are completely against him, the players aren't playing for him it's just dragging out the inevitable now.

You can't just rock up and expect piped off, MF needs to be wooed first.

"did El Tel say he wanted the job? Get 'im on the blower"

"Fancy a pint? okay I'll go get you one"

Possibly the most dejected I've seen Pardew look recently mind, didn't seem confident of his position at all. Hopefully that bodes well, although no doubt he'll be sat in the dugout against Swansea wasting more of our season.

Yup, it's utterly pointless waiting any longer. It's clear as day he can't turn this round now, just making it harder for the next manager now.

Think he's meaning it's not another 4-0 or 5-0 twatting. A loss to Stoke still hurts but at least we didn't get slaughtered.

"the negativaahtee fraam the fans got to mike, then that upset mike which meant the players were upset cos he pays them their wonga and they laaav him. seein them holding up signs of support for me at the end was nice, always good to see posters wiff your name on, especially in the red and blue. anyway just want to say fanks mike for paying the bus fare for us to come here and play a crackin game of footbawww, so fanks mike"

What a dreadful game between two embarrassingly bad teams. If Stoke were anywhere near being decent they could have had 4. I wish Waddle would pack in saying we dominated the first half, the fact we have the ball more means nowt we didn't create anything ffs.

Aye, been trying for 3 pages now.

If it's not then I've no clue what the fuck Ashley wants, unless it's relegation because that's all this bloke can bring us now.

"I'd at least let him have the two next games, then maybe think when is it time to hit the panic button" The panic button should be being fucking mashed into the ground by now.

Aye Waddle is a cunt coming out with shite like that.

Pardew must be smelling that pay off.

Aye yet plenty still bought it. This football is so poor, no wonder we can't score the ball takes nearly the same route everytime.

Aye, no interest in changing his system which is working fantastically well. How the fuck is this bloke still a premiership manager.
