Tom 14011 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Pardew has been fucked over but he knew what he was signing up for. He's bottled games since Cabaye went - he pretty much conceded the spurs game before a ball was kicked. Meanwhile, Laudrup is unemployed....

trophyshy 7066 Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) If he believes he has an excuse for losing a game then it's lost and that's alright by him. Edited February 16, 2014 by trophyshy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Losing 11 out of 26 games is bareable. Conceding 3 or more in 7 of those losses is a disgrace though. We can win tight games or we totally capitulate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Carr's Gloves 3789 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Don't get me wrong, I'll be delighted to get someone better. I'm just saying that with big players due back, and a fairly easy run in, he could still get us into Europe (with his best player sold as well). Would that justify a sacking?

He's probably the best we've got available to us who are willing to work under MA's conditions. I don't reckon that's true tbh, a lot of people taking that line but unless you are One of the elite, mega rich clubs in any nation you're not going to get tons of cash and be pressing for trophies every year, there is a very small number of clubs who do that. We're not entirely exiting in our current state but were a damn site more stable than other clubs, Fulham just got Magath after all, we can still attract managers, we just aren't doing cause we have one.

The thing is that's just on the surface. There's a tonne of rumours about what goes on behind closed doors and I can't see any manager worth his salt putting up with it for long tbh. We're still a real prospect for a manager and perhaps a promising up and coming manager would be a nice alternative to Pardew but off the top of my head I can't think of any Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 4092 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Pardew's probably got just enough ability to have us finishing mid table with the transfer policy the club has in place. Finding another manager like that who's also willing to suck up to Ashley wont be easy. He's not going anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I coud agree with this. In fact I don't at all with any of it. I don't think we're stable enough to be considered a viable Premier League team after this season and I don't think we can attract better, proven managers. What the club has acheived this season is papering over the cracks of relegation which is waiting next season. Anyway, that lovely woman in your avatar is over here this week. A nice distraction.

Pretty much this, if MA doesn't invest heavily over the the summer we will be prime relegation candidates for next year which is frightening to think about. Got a bet on with a WHUFC fan at work that we will finish above them this season, seemed safe at the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 If Pardew was sacked I've no doubt we could get someone better, there would be a few managers queuing up, my problem is that Ashley wouldnt go for someone better, just someone who could get us by.
