Howay

Aye he'll smash that no bother, if he isn't sacked in the next 2-3 games we'll have a new record holder.

What's amazing is the people running this club can still keep lowering my opinion of them.

We have a tiny squad with about 3 above average players (Krul, Sissoko and Tiote, I don't think we've seen enough of the new lads to say any of them are above average yet), the rest are fairly average, below average or playing in a league that's too good for them. Meanwhile Spurs have better individual players in every position of the field then we do, as well as having back ups that are Premiership level, we're simply not their level. Everton are closer but I think their best players are a fair bit better than ours and their back ups are a million miles better than ours. Not to mention both have far far superior managers. Our squad is wafer thin and lacks quality in a number of departments, we're closer to needing 8-10 players to match them than 3 imo.

Howay man Phil, Spurs and Everton have good players all over the park. We're far behind those teams and always have been under Ashley. The year we finished 5th we were remarkably fortunate with our injury record, Ba and Cisse were in ridiculous purple patches, Cabaye and Tiote formed a brilliant uninterrupted partnership and Colo had the season of his life. As well as all that most of the big sides had an off year.

Nee chance man

Cheers for hoying that up Spinny, cracking article and hits the nail on the head as usual. The apathy point is massive, I have no feeling towards a 4-0 humping now it's almost expected, it generates a similar response to a 1-0 loss. It used to be completely fucking embarrassing, now when we go a goal down I expect that's the game over and we'll lose by more. If I have to work when the match is on I was always disappointed, even if we were losing at the time I left but now I couldn't give a fuck, even if we're winning I'm not arsed as we're shite to watch. If we're winning I know the brakes will be applied and the 2nd half will be an attempt to prevent the opposition rather than trying to increase the lead, its utterly fucking dire. As Caulkin is saying the relationship between Pardew and the fans is finished, even if we pull off a 3-0 win against Hull (the equivalent of a 6-0 under Pardew) who fucking cares? he can still get fucked, I don't want to see his stupid fucking face anymore or hear his awful voice moaning on about some excuse while saying it's not an excuse. I think we'll lose 3-0 and David Meyler will score, if he doesn't get the sack after that I've no interest in watching anymore tbh.

I'd be tempted to give Pardew a tiny piece of slack regarding having players sold and not having much say, however the fact he regularly goes out of his way to fank Mike and the feeling that he knew what he was getting into means I wont even give him that. The man is a prick and shows no respect to the fans of the club, his fellow managers, rival teams players etc he deserves no respect, he's a piece of shit. As I've said before blaming a 70 year old man who is the only scout we have isn't fair, this is possibly the only team he has been at that has had so few scouts and I'm including Northampton in that. We've no idea who he comes up with, he has given them options like Grenier, Bony, Aubemeyeng, Douglas etc very recently so he is doing his job and finding players. He had found Douglas on a free and Kinnear completely ballsed that up. Pardew on the other hand fucked up a League one job and was given a Premiership side to manage. I can't watch any more of this fraud of a managers brand of football, I wont take finishing 5th away from him, luck, skill whatever it was a good achievement, but that was 3 seasons ago now and he has done a utterly average job up until the last 18 month which have been a total disaster.

Aye, Carver could start a fight in an empty room tbh. Of course Bellamy was/is the same way but it is more of a disadvantage being a bloody coach and acting that way.

That's the key point, it's ridiculous to blame scouts as all he really does is give his advice and opinion, he has no control over who they sign. It's been repeated many times but it is also fucking ridiculous that a team of our teams level seemingly has one scout for first team players, he may also be in charge of youth finds too. How many teams fans really know and discuss their scouts by name, it's ridiculous.

How do you know who Carr identified though? We know he has recently identified players like Bony and aubemeyang to buy and the club didn't bother, he probably has lists of targets but it doesnt mean the club will bother with them. Edit: I'm also unconvinced how much Carr had to do with Ferreyra, I saw that as Ashley etc capitalizing on the opportunity of Ferreyra refusing to go back to Donestk as a way of bringing in a striker.

They're having a good laugh about it in the pub by now "wait wait, and then I said the faaakin international break give us too little time to prepare".

Aye no chance Pardew would have talked him down, one look at his smug face would have made the situation worse.

Bet that was fucking hilarious to watch

Aye that's my hope like. There's no reason to keep Pardew now even if he had to pay him off as it's clear we're in real trouble of relegation if he stays. Especially with his shite about us looking ok etc.

I'd sincerely hope that there's a get out clause in the contract and we're not keeping him around simply because Ashley doesnt want to pay the remaining years up. Especially as Ashley was the daft bastard that thought Alan Pardew was worth an 8 year contract.

Was it Bellamy that was hoying chairs at him in Newcastle airport?

"We've had a few of those" Aye more then anyone else ever has you fucking cock. The whole international break give us little time to prepare is another cracker, they had the same to deal with Alan. Oh and if that's true about Carver he can fuck off as well, iirc he's married to my dads cousin, he has fallen a long way since his days with Robson sticking up for this wanker, I'm no longer happy I'm somewhat related to him my disowning him from the family will no doubt upset him deeply.

He's doing a better job up there then their defenders!

Williamson, we didn't need a Centre back at all! Cheers mike

Don't be ridiculous CT. The Kinnears don't wash their clothes.

I don't think the Fish would mind now, we look like the worst team in the league tbh.

As things stand we're currently bottom? Palace and Burnley drawing atm both on 2 points with -3 GD and we'll have -4 GD with 2 points as things stand. Big fanks to Mike.

:lol: Obviously, don't mess with a winning formula.

"I'd like to fank Mike for givin me the oppaatuuunatee to manage a prem claaahb, so fanks Mike, I'd like to fank Obertan for sticking by me so fanks gabriel." Hope to be hearing this within the week
