And the Pardew Out Ashley Out Sheet is Out. #52SheetOut

Bellamy to come on in the 60th or 69th? Pardew subs left back again, tactical masterclass.

"15-24 minutes until we become the laughing stock of all other teams and the media" - CT

As someone so proficient in churning out excuses you'd think he'd have trotted out something a little better than that.

Perhaps Ben Arfa was merely trying to push Pardew away with his fists?

I'll walk out of my lounge room, to grab a drink.

Pardew's half time talk: "Right lads, let's do this for our bonuses"

So he did. I recall the goal, and yeah it does seem like an age ago. We were actually playing football back then.

Has Dummett done anything decent this season?

5 in 75 Premier League games for Shola. Egads...

Ameobi scores! Lovely cross in the end from Sissoko, and a good finish.

Nice run from Debuchy.

The second half of the season we've been pretending to play football with the participants pretending to be professional footballers. Form has dropped universally across the side.

Commentary referring to the walkout and the different times for it, that in itself is annoying. Fecking NUST bollocks.

Well said.

No.

This has garnered a fair amount of media coverage. It would be a shame if that momentum was not continued with an actual meaningful walk out at the game. Those there have the right to do whatever they want of course, but some don't appear to understand the motivation behind it, or otherwise don't have a problem with the way the club is being run. This has a chance of actually happening and if so showing some solidarity in the opposition to the way Ashley is running the club.

The minute is not important, it's the message. The 69 link is tenuous at best and stereotype confirming at worst. The silly part is changing it/confusing it for whatever reason. This only works if there is solidarity shown.

My understanding of the word was as a reference to idiots in charge. May be wrong though! The spelling got autocorrected on my phone.

Absolute idiocrasy to change the time.

That may be true, but it's difficult to foresee a massive swing in the players belief in the manager next season, even with the addition of three or so players. Therefore hanging on to him could foreseeably risk relegation, the one thing that could provide motivation for Ashley.

Pardew: "We was doing well out there until the refs decisions went against us, mostly his decision to start the match"

Could teach Pards a thing or two about getting away with a headbutt.

A time machine, a bullet and several hundred million pounds.

I'll go out on a limb here and admit I think against us he's looked quite adequate on more than one occasion. Haven't seen much more of him that that, so there's a fair chance that he stepped up for the derbies. As for him signing, given the current state of the clubs footballing endeavours I couldn't give a toss.
