Spot on BamBam

If you take out the outliers you'll get a better idea of his "normal" standard. So, omit the year we finished 5th and his worst year, what's his w%?

That's just flat out not true.

Over 43% (could be a little more) which is reasonable enough in the Premier League. You may find it is the highest win ratio of any current English manager in the top flight (which is probably a little misleading). It's the kind of ratio you'd normally take. Pardew doesn't seem to ever go for draws though which skews it a little but that would be much harder to analyse - some kind of average points per game required. As I said before - despite this post - I'm not really a stato.

Red and Blue Army!

I was there, there was no booing. We went on to win the game 4-1. It may only be the championship but a wins a win. That's 2 in a row now, the same number that Pardew has had this calendar year.

Unlike my fellow supporter, I am here to gloat. You called us deluded when we said what an absolute charlatan Pardew was, he's one of us you said. You're very welcome to him. This is the man who played Marlon Harewood in favour of Carlos Tevez and wouldn't play Mascherano. Now he's gone I find him funny.

As for the 'grim up north' comment, I came down to your ground the last time we were in the championship. Beautiful area. I work in London from time to time, it's a god forsaken place, I can't wait to get out of there for my own safety to be honest.

Enjoy Pardew and Townsend. I really rate Townsend, great signing but Pardew will probably have him playing left back soon and he'll demand a transfer when you get relegated.

Last thing...were you at the match yesterday and were you booing?

I'm afraid that most Palace posters on this forum aren't very bright and "deluded" is a word that many of them seem to apply to anyone and everyone who isn't a Palace supporter although many of them also apply the term to a fellow Palace fan who doesn't agree with them

Again the "grim up North" is symptomatic of idiots looking for an insult and not caring whether it's true or not.

I'm a Southerner who spent six years living on Tyneside and appreciate what a great place it was (except for the weather) and I would much rather live in the grim North that in the dump that surrounds SE25

I still have some Geordie friends who all told me what to expect from Pardew when we first signed him and almost every word has come true.

You only have to read the recent threads here to see that most of us believe that we won't get anywhere whilst AP is our manager and whilst it's true that Newcastle have won as many League matches in the last week as we have won in the whole of 2016 we don't like being reminded, especially when the goals are being scored by someone who many believe AP shouldn't have sold
