Pardew, todays Echo. http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/4753745.Pards__we_d_have_won_if_we_d_turned_ugly/ Is this another of these anti-Burley occasions when the axiom that "if you have nothing to say, its better to say nothing" applies ? 'Cos I read this as "I'm clueless and have lost the plot to what's important"

Thats being polite. Its all he has to cling on to. By every other metric than statistics, Burley was a SH*T manager for SFC. He achieved nothing, and did more than his fair share in bankrupting the club.

Plenty of people on here recognised that whilst Keegan was a good motivator, he wasnt that good unless offered a kings ransom to spend in the transfer market.

Then get on with it and stop tracking my perfectly valid opinion like a internet pervert.

Certainly not me. I dont feel any guilt about sodding potato famines and sh*te like that. I do feel a certain amount of anger when I think of pensioners surviving WW2 only to get blown up on Remembrance Sunday in Enniskillen or little boys barely out of their nappies being blown up when shopping with their parents in Warrington but being expected to feel sorry for using a slightly controversial geographical term. But WTF, now we are really going off subject. Time to close the thread I think.

I dont get this mentality at all. You field your best side. Always. They train half days, and play a maximum of twice a week. Whats the f**king problem ? The likes of Ramsey, Paisley, Shankly et al. always played their best side. Its only that Evil Beetroot-Faced Bullying B*stard Mark I (we know who Mark II was) who started this weak team fielding concept.

Whatever. This article is basically saying it is down to interpretations on either side of the Irish Sea. Fine, I come from the English side, so when I used the term "British Isles", I meant the whole island group because that is what I perceived the term to mean. And dubsaint therefore has no greater right to condemn my description than I do his. He pulled me up for it and lectured me, remember ? Note that very few, if any, English people object to the term "Irish Sea", but then we come from a mature nation of people without collosal chips on our shoulders and institutional paranoia.

I find the fact that SOGGY is still going with his one-man crusade utterly pitiful. Especially as anyone (especially me) who dares point out what a useless manager Burley was for us is accused of hating him. I dont, and I dont reckon anyone else does, but I do hate the legacy he left. But then, making that particular accusation just fits with the hopelessness and facileness of the position SOGGY is arguing... At least it gets him some attention, I suppose.

Ah. so you avoid answering the question. Rightyho...

What is inaccurate about the statement I made ?

I dont think it either, all I am saying is that ultimately I will be satisfied with it.

It means Pardew can at times make clueless substitutions through lack of an idea of what to do, just like Burley. No more, no less. I think he is the manager to take us forward, but he needs to get the defence sorted out.

His avoidance of the facts is utterly hillarious..

Have a look at the Championship table, you obsessed troll.

Provide one post link where I have demanded his dismissal. This comment is utterly bizarre. Why should anybody take our recent form out of our recent form ???

The attitude "We're gonna score one more than you" will only get you so far.

I have already. I'd settle for not getting relegated.

Hmm....

Considering we took the lead twice, that really is f**king poor.

Lost the lead twice again today, after a suicidal 20mins against Brighton. AP needs to start planning for life after Trotman - NOW.

Has Trotman lost interest because of PNE disruption, and that is affecting Jahidi like Svenssons injury affected Claus ?

Sure-fire way of losing.

No thanks, then I'd loose any sense of drive and ambition like you have.

As you could live with your Rupert Lowe / George Burley dream team...
