Nah just a rumour put out by Ince to surprise us on match day IMO.

What a load of rubbish. Lambert, Fonte, Hammond, Puncheon - load of old bangers?

I think Otsemobor is a lot better than people give him credit for, and Seaborne has been better than I expected (although I would still have Jaidi ahead of him). HOWEVER; Seaborne cannot play in the JPT or the FA cup and Fonte cannot play in the FA cup either, so it makes sense to ROTATE your squad.

These two statements contradict each other. Out of all of the players we brought in, Seaborne and Otsemobor wouldn't be expecting a place in the starting line up.

Not the best by a long shot (I only looked at two others but they were much better), but i'll vote for it anyways

If he doesn't give Pardew next season to get us promoted then it is ridiculous IMO.

My problem? It was bliss.

Ah yes, I do remember that now. How would one of those threads look now?

I thought so too, didn't he say something about people keeping their feet grounded and not letting their expectations get too high...?

But read my post more carefully - even with this dip in form (which IMO, isn't that drastic a dip) the improvement we've made since Pardew took over is clear to see. But not to the three I mentioned further up the thread.

You're joking I take it?

Cheers, very helpful.

Erm, obviously. I will sell one of my testicles if I have to.

Really? You, Glasgow and Delldays are the only ones suggesting/implying/whatever that we need a change of manager.

Absolutely. When we went on that run where we won loads (most of them 3-1s), I can remember seeing Alpine maybe once or twice.

The only people who are seriously questioning Pardew and refuse to see the progress we have made, ironically, have hardly seen a game all season.

If you try to make out ever again that you have never said you think Pardew isn't up to it, I will quote this. Cheers.

Nobody has ever put "blind faith" in Pardew. I was one of the ones shouting at him to make a sub when we played away to Swindon. What the majority of people are saying is that we will not judge him completely until the end of next season. That is not blind faith, it is just good old fashioned normal faith.

Yes, and Seaborne, Puncheon and Barnard were probably our three best players yesterday.

I need a new PC controller for my PS1 emulator, any recommendations?

Forget assumptions delldays, we are EXPECTING promotion next season. You and Glasgow should be happy about that, surely...

Because, as I have tried to tell you countless times, football is not that clear cut. Leeds beat United, but Exeter beat Leeds - does that make Exeter better than United?

Are you still not getting it? If you play a passing game on a flat surface, you will get used to that. If you play a passing game on a piece of sh*t pitch, you will adapt after a while.

Are you suggesting we should have taken a JCB to our training pitch in order to be ready for this game?

Did you completely ignore this part??????????? "If you play on a cabbage patch every other week there is a good chance you will be able to deal with it better, we play on a billard table surface and find it more difficult to adapt to the conditions due to our style"
