I am really disappointed that Pardew is taking training this morning . He should been gone and agree with OP all the backroom staff with him . We have became a laughing stock . I also feel Parish has too much sentiment with ex-players and is giving Pardew too much time too try and find a fix . It's the same old rubbish every week . Please leave Alan .

I thought he had been summoned to a high-level special bollocking meeting for a bollocking. Zat no right then?

which in turn comes from the manager. I don't think Mr P is that well liked and this is where I believe a lot of the problems are coming from.

Bring back Brolin

If the options are only Fat Sam, Woy or Coleman, I'll stick with Pardew please otherwise we'll have all this again in a years time.

I think what you're trying to say is Pardew has lost the locker room and I would agree. That's why he must be sacked. There's good quality on this Team that's not performing under his leadership. They aren't performing under his leadership when, he will throw them under the bus with his excuses during Pressers. He may not be calling out players by name but they still recognize when they're being thrown under the bus. Why should a player be loyal to that type of sh*tty management? Answer, they shouldn't. That's why there is need for a fresh start at SE25. I think a Majority of the supporters know this and recognize it. It's just taking Steve Parish and the Board a little while longer, but it will happen. A Fresh Start is coming to SE25 and I for one can't wait.

Pardew hasn't helped himself, with his head in the sand attitude, but he isn't the sole reason for our predicament.
The players are most definitely culpable as well, the problem is they don't really care and know they will still get paid very well until there contract expire.
H Rednapp was on TalkSport this morning talking about todays players, there is very little comradery in teams now, some players don't even talk, just turn up with their headphones on and get changed to play. How there are now very few leaders in teams anymore in the mould of Adams, Keane and Terry, in some teams they have players that don't speak English. I don't like Rednapp, but he had a few reasonable points.
Pardews issue is that he is just not getting through to the players and motivating them, for whatever reason.
His time has come, he wont be here for New Years day, I am starting to warm to the idea of Fat Sam, he does appear to have some infinity with players, which may help.
