Christmas Tree 4725 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Given recent results, the weather and people getting ready for Christmas, It will be surprising if we can pull in a big crowd for this one. I will be in attendance with all three Tree daughters, however had this not been a pre arranged family outing its a fair bet that I would be residing in the pub for this one. This is without doubt a must win game. Following this game our next six fixtures see us take on... Fulham Man City QPR Man United Arsenal Everton By which time we will be into 2013. That run of fixtures is bad enough, however a "good" win tomorrow just may help us prepare that little bit better. Perch is ruled out tomorrow night due to suspension.

Christmas Tree 4725 Posted December 2, 2012 Author Share Posted December 2, 2012 Worth mentioning that the club have now reduced ticket prices tomorrow to £15 adults and £5 kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTF 7295 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Would like to see Marveaux given a start and Sameobi not given a run at all. Maybe Obertan to come back into the mix as sad as that is to say. We need some pace and movement with Ben Arfa out, but can't have it with no end product (Sammy).

Brock Manson 0 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Should be a home win under normal circumstances but we're dreadful at the moment. Wigan are a real Jekyl and Hyde team so hopefully they'll be shite rather than be made to look like world beaters by us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 13873 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 CT, I'll be in the Strawberry beforehand if you fancy a bit of TT star-spotting. I'm going for a surprisingly comfortable 2-0 to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Need an early goal. Doesn't need to be any kind of flowing move, can ricochet off Cisse's arse again for all I care, but need an early goal.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4725 Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 As much as I hope we get a good win tonight and somehow Pardew can turn it around, those next six fixtures could leave us in an awful mess that Ashley will be unable to ignore come January. I think its tonight or bust for Pardew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 "I can't think of a Premier League club in the last couple of years that has suffered as badly as we have in terms of (injuries to) key players. You can almost look in every position," As sympathetic as I am to the injury situation, that's just bollocks. Colo and Tiote weren't injured. They brought that shit on themselves.Tonights opponents have a worse injury list than us. We have 3 first teamers injured basically (Taylor, Ben Arfa, Cabaye). We don't have the squad to deal with that. Other clubs have had injury crises as bad, but they have the depth to fill gaps with able bodies.

Christmas Tree 4725 Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 Only for you CT, he's Ashley's boy and will be at the club for the duration of his contract. Im not sure why people have this belief that Ashley would keep Pardew regardless. Ashley didnt become a billionaire by sticking with something thats not working. I also disagree with the doom mongers who think it would be hard to attract a quality manager here. Im sure there are lots that would be happy to work within this set up. I personally hope Pardew can sort it out but I do think his over cautious approach has brought a lot of this on himself. Unfortunately though we may be approaching a period of games that would leave him in a very untenable position come January 2nd. He has commented twice lately that he has changed his approach for the stoke game and will do so again tonight. Hopefully it comes off this time.

Happy Face 29 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Im not sure why people have this belief that Ashley would keep Pardew regardless. Probably the 8 year contract signed a couple of months ago, when we were 4 places better off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 If we were playing alright and creating chances and were just lacking a little bit of quality then I would agree with Pardew. But we were playing shit this season when everyone was fit, that's what worries me. Starting to hide behind the Europa and injury factors rather than deal with the real problems.

sniffer 0 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Given recent results, the weather and people getting ready for Christmas, It will be surprising if we can pull in a big crowd for this one. I will be in attendance with all three Tree daughters, however had this not been a pre arranged family outing its a fair bet that I would be residing in the pub for this one. This is without doubt a must win game. Following this game our next six fixtures see us take on... Fulham Man City QPR Man United Arsenal Everton By which time we will be into 2013. That run of fixtures is bad enough, however a "good" win tomorrow just may help us prepare that little bit better. Perch is ruled out tomorrow night due to suspension. I'm surprised you've just noticed this run of games. Its the reason I said last week after the defeat at Stoke that if we don't pick up the pace,we'll be in the bottom four by the end of the year. People were more interested in saying that Pardew is doing a fantastic job rather than seeing what may well occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
