What is it with some of you?

[landford.saint]

Time after time on here I hear a small but vocal minority on this forum who seem intent on undermining Alan Pardew. With comments about some supposed bust-up with Cortesse, or misquoting some dodgy peice of journalism.

So far this season (league wise) we have lost 8 matches. So in your eyes AP must go.

So far this season (in fewer matches played) Manure have lost 6 matches and Aresnal have lost 5. Are you sugesting Ferguson and Wenger must go.

Norwich (6 defeats) and Leeds (7) both in automatic promotion spots have lost only 1 and 2 less than us respectively.

We had virtually no pre-season. Have had almost a total change of personnel (with all the team bonding problems that brings), and the first 10 matches with alot of the dregs from last years squad was at best described as cr@p.

What is it with some of you guys? Do you take some perverted pleasure in winding people up, or do you really believe some of the venomous drivel that you write on here some times.

At the beginning of the season we would all have been happy with a mid-table finish. With 9 games to go we have already achieved that. We have had a good day out at the JPT and brought back the first bit of silver in decades. And there is even a very, very remote chance if everything falls our way of making the playoffs.

 

Pardew out? You must be acomplete and utter zoomer

[Huffton]

How dare you make such a reasonable, balanced post as that.

[NorthamSteve]

Now I've polished my eyes, I would say that it's people winding others up.

 

It's worked.

 

Nevermind.

[trousers]

I've just done a search and couldn't see any "pardew out" quotes (apart from those done in jest)

 

Apologies if there are some examples and I missed them

[Turkish]

FFS dont start using the no preseason excuse again. Everyone knows that winning our first trophy in 34 years and an upper mid table finish with a team constructed during the season is not acceptable.

[Legod Third Coming]

Calm down, calm down dear. It's just a commercial.

 

We can all spot a berk from a mile off. Just take a wide berth.

Whilst I have no particular preference whether AP stays or goes your argument is flawed. Our problem isn't with matches lost it's with matches not

won. You compare losses and then don't mention that Man Ure have only drawn 3, whereas we have drawn 12.

[Saint_Jonny]

Best off trying to ignore the WUMS, which is rich coming from me because I always bite!

I think the comparison is flawed because Alex has been at United for 43 years and is a f u cking God. Oh and has spent in excess of £600m on players during that period.

 

But hey, otherwise perfect comparison.

[Dibden Purlieu Saint]

To be fair, I have complained of this previously, BUT, even the most vocal have calmed down recently. Either way, let's hope we still make the playoffs. Even if we lose, that is fine, as the target was just to make them.

Probably but then I didn't really get the drift of the OP. The argument is based on comparing chalk and cheese and it went over my head a bit.

23 years by the way.

[Dalek2003]

The same ones that forced Sturrock on us after they undermined the re-appointment of Hoddle in 2004.

They nearly succeeded in bringing the club to its knees once and are obviously intent on doing it again.

Is that true?? Feck me...

 

There are two management Gods and I hope they end up playing each other in a few weeks.

 

If Pardew could end up being half the manager, we would be blessed indeed.

[niceandfriendly]

After I watched the Swindon away game, I admit to doubting Alan Pardew.

 

What a fool I was. This season has been great fun, and it's an unexpected surprise to be so close to the play offs (not to mention a Wembley victory).

 

We're lucky to have a manager like AP.

[Dalek2003]

Not really.

[RedAndWhite91]

Pardew Out

[niceandfriendly]

Pardew Out

 

No. That's an extremely personal and difficult decision and we shouldn't force him to tell anyone if he doesn't want to.

I would of happily taken mid table at the start of the season and most certainly after the first 10 games but now we have the awful wembley trip and cup to bring home and possibility of the play offs, that certainly wasn't in my predictions, Pardew out.

[70's Mike]

not sure but is it moaners = non regular attendees at games

satisfied = regular attendess over last 5 seasons

I think this is very close to the truth.

[docker-p]

I think the original poster is mixing up talk about AP's relationship with NC, which there has been a fair bit about, and talk of whether AP should be removed at the end of the season, which there hasn't.

 

For what is worth, and I've said this plenty of times, if Saints are within 10 points of 6th place his job is secure, if Saints are outside that, expect a new manager next season.

 

And before anyone jumps down my throught, that is what i think will happen, not what i want to happen.

And as i think we will be comfortably within 10 points of 6th place, AP can relax and book his summer holidays.

An awful lot of posters regularly come up with stuff like "AP should have done much better this season" and "Midtable is simply not good enough". I think that's what the OP is referring to. They're welcome to their opinion of course, but most people tend to agree that AP has done a good job this season.

And i would agree AP has done a good job this season. I don't think is was outstanding, which some people who watch NC think he expects.

[Glasgow_Saint]

AP has done a good job so far.

 

Peoples should just support the club ffs

[Badger]

Pardew is great... end of

 

those who disagree can **** off

Can he f**k, he has 9...correction...12 games to win..

[saint_stevo]

yawn. No pre season, lucky to have a club etc

Unless you are called Weston or Derry where you want Pardew out as you don't rate his tactical nouse and don't hide the fact.

[alpine_saint]

Nope, just you starting yet another p*ssing contest it seems.

 

I see enough variation on the "just back from the game" threads to know that if somebody is either stupid or just doesnt get the sport, it doesnt matter if they attend every game and the training sessions.

The fact remains Alpine that not one person who regularly attends the game thinks we aren't making acceptable progress.

[AndyNorthernSaints]

There is a reason your messiah is not in work and can't hack it as a football manager. I'll let you work it out...

[saint_stevo]

I go regularly, and think we should be doing better in the league.

[alpine_saint]

And an awful lot of people who dont regularly attend games think the same thing.

 

Your point is ?

[AndyNorthernSaints]

but you don't rate any Saints players and think every player is crap.

[saint_stevo]

but you don't rate any Saints players and think every player is crap.

 

I think Wotton is crap. It is also my belief that Antonio needs more time in the reserves/lower leagues before being first choice on the wing. His final ball is often poor.

 

that is all

We are in the lower leagues which is why he plays for us.

You constantly slag off most of the team. You must have told everyone that Antonio is crap at least a hundred times even though he is a young player not long out of non league football and man of match away to Franchise in JPT and pretty good at wembley.

[saint_stevo]

Most of the team? Really..........

 

i say it as it is. Antonio scored a good goal away v MK no doubt, but his distribution was poor, and generally his crossing is below the required standard.

 

Good at wembley, hold my hands up, even mentioned he was my MoM on the MoM thread.........

[View From The Top]

Great reply.

 

It happens to be the truth.

 

He's been loaned to us by Reading so he can get experience for them by playing in the lower leagues.

true.

Even though his contract with Reading ends at the same time his loan contract ends with us??

 

When i say lower leagues, i mean lower than us, as you well knew.

[NickG]

he's not, Puncheon and Lallana, thought you go a lot?

I thought Antonio was terrific all-round at Wembley. Maybe the enforced cuptied changes made a difference and the system suited his style of play better, who knows, but I thought he was great on the day.
