Nowhere near good enough. I said 6 points from the last 3 games would be enough to buy Pardew some time, but after today and the Swansea game he has to go. He can't take responsibility for the way we attack, all he's done is bought a very expensive (but very good) striker. If we had had Benteke under Pulis and Warnock we would have scored more goals. What he is responsible for is the complete and utter shambles that we have become in the midfield when we don't have the ball, ignoring the fact that we can't allow teams to come onto us. Every team that comes to Selhurst Park hassles us and presses us and we never, ever do this to the opposition. It is so blatantly obvious as to be a joke that he hasn't noticed. So he is responsible for what we do badly but not for what we do well? Seems fair

Shipped five goals to the bottom team Now, you can't legislate for what was probably the most ridiculous ref decision of the season so far. Nor is it by design that Tomkins was not available. But really Hull have been so bad we should have been able to put them to bed with no trouble with Wilf playing like that. But as usual the defenders fail to close down and we turn the ball over in midfield so that it just comes back on to us. There's no excuse for a clearly qualified Premiership defence to be losing so many goals to such bad sides who really have done nothing special to deserve them. It's not even as if Hennessey has committed gaffes. If he could fix this he would have done by now.

Pardew wasn't the only one who came to that conclusion. Benteke has always scored goals and Wilf has always been able to skin a defender. That's not all Pardew's genius is it ? Our defence used to be good, and now is terrible. That comes down to them being poorly drilled and unsure of their roles in certain situations. That is down to the manager and the way he instructs his coaching staff and the players. So yes, he is responsible for the negatives (defence), and can only take partial responsibility for the positives (attack).

So Hull are the worst team in the league? Two weeks ago everyone said that was Swansea Week before that is was Burnley. There's 8-9 teams at the moment that are in danger, we are one of them but we are sitting near the top of that pile Guess what. We lost to 2 of those and drew with the other. Really struggling with the logic that was used that puts us "near the top of that pile" Edited by Mstrobez (10 Dec 2016 5.30pm)

And once again, I think Pardew should go but I think that people should try to be objective

I fail see why he is wholly resposible for the bad bits yet only gets partial credit for the good bits. Seems unobjective and that you are looking to justify your stance at a time when we have perhaps turned an admittedly small corner. The doom goblins wanted 4 points from these games and that is what we have got.

But the point you're making is he isn't responsible for the bad stuff or hes responsible for all the good stuff. So why should he go under that logic? Strange way to view affairs

Totally pathetic performance, Its really not good enough. Pardew needs to go now and Parish needs to Listen to the voice of the people who have supported this club through thick and thin. I cant believe his thumbs up to Parish last week after one win, What an arrogant man he is Again we score 3 goals and lose, Ive not seen the stat's but I am sure Hull had the majority of possession. Some on here talk about enjoying the exciting goal fest. I get no pleasure whatsoever in watching my team lose with any score. And now i guess we are looking at Pardew until the end of the season. Probably our last in the premier for a few years. I just wish he was man enough to resign
No we didn't.
If you come to a fork in the road, take it. |
