I actually thought he'd come on after last night's game and admit he was wrong for thinking we'd turned predictable and had become complacent after the Orient game. You'd have thought after we won the next game that he'd have thought he was wrong and then admitted so. But ohhhh no! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkish Posted 7 November, 2009 Share Posted 7 November, 2009 i'm liking Pardew more every week, very honest, always seems to be striving to make the team better and talks a lot of sense. Also seems to like it here and has a big respect for the fans and the club which is great to see from someone who has managed at a much higher level.

I think the time was turned it around was realistic and the season is going great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 7 November, 2009 Share Posted 7 November, 2009 all of his post match comments have been spot on, bar Swindon away possibly...where everyone had a bit of a mare a top top manager though IMO, you can see the respect all the players have towards him.

Minty Posted 7 November, 2009 Share Posted 7 November, 2009 Quite sad that being right or at least proving others wrong, is seemingly more important to so many rather than just enjoying a win with fellow Saints fans. Neither side seem able to rise above it either. What I find funniest is that no one could realistically predict what happens over the course of a season and so to claim any kind of 'victory' in these kind of discussions seems incredibly fortuitous rather than insightful. Anyway, onwards and upwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The boy done well Posted 7 November, 2009 Share Posted 7 November, 2009 Hmm. Not sure you see it quite the same way as the vast majoriy of us. After years of complete dross it's rather nice to join fellow Saints fans in glorying our recent successes. At long last have a decent side for the league we're in which at the moment is winning game after game. We also seem to have a manager who calls it as we see it. Let's enjoy it and the stats.

Once bitten, twice shy kind of thing. Maybe Alpine is trying to temper expectations... Absolutely. I for one thought Premier League football was on its way back to SMS after Wilde took over and gave Burley the lattitude to do what he wanted (and more or less spend what he wanted) with the team. NEVER AGAIN. I do profoundly apologise if that comes across as "negative". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Landrew Posted 8 November, 2009 Share Posted 8 November, 2009 Pardew nailed it with his comments. Nice to see that he is confident enough to have a look at a few options and players. At 3-0, I suppose it did look safe. At 3-2 not so. But then that's what 3-0 allows you, i.e. to concede twice, for various reasons, and still win. Have to say that before AP came to Southampton I respected him as a very capable manager, but who wouldn't be my first choice to take over the team. Well, considering the settling in period, and the -10 points, I honestly don't think many managers could have done better, and any of those who might have are already gainfully employed elsewhere, in higher divisions.

Torres Posted 8 November, 2009 Share Posted 8 November, 2009 Oh, wow. another thread to sneer and have a dig at anyone who doesnt toe the party line... TBF, what you see as "the party line" is simply most Saints fans enjoying our fantastic run of recent results and performances. If people don't want to join in with that, most of the rest of us feel ever so slightly sorry for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just dont think we need a smart-arse telling us how many games we have gone without defeat, since we are all Saints fans as much as him and know it already I really shouldn't bite because you really aren't worth it but your hypocrisy is beyond belief! Your post above reflects just how many of us feel about you when you feel it is OK to ram negative drivel down our throats and try to bring us all down to your sad level - now it seems you can't even bare to allow others to enjoy what for most of us is a well deserved and long overdue purple patch in Saints form.

There's nothing wrong with a fan posting our unbeaten run, it's just for our pleasure as it hasn't happened a lot in recent history! What I don't think we need at this stage is a smart-arse telling us that, after one drawn game away from home, we have become obvious, predictable and the opposition have found a massive weakness that all upcoming opposition will no doubt exploit.
