Originally posted by bexleydave I'd take that over the 12 months Pardew had to sort things and failed miserably. Good point, but risky at this stage.

I know that this sounds strange, but being an older fan, it's not all about premier football for me at this stage, but building a legacy of a better club, ground etc for my children to watch in comfort in future years when I'm gone. However, I do understand the two may go hand in hand. Unless the Americans have pots regardless.

It's difficult to say without seeing how we'd have got on at Watford and against Swansea, if there hadn't been a management change. My fear was that, if we'd got points from those two, Pardew would have then reverted to type again (like he did at Hull, after Southampton) and I'm not sure how much more of that we could have taken before we were beyond redemption. Being somewhat senior myself, I agree with you on the rest, but we'd never achieve the badly needed infrastructure improvements outside of the PL. Bexley Dave Can you hear the Brighton sing?

What a load of tw&t. They were poorly managed, trained, drilled, prepared and not correcting or learning from mistakes, same as he wasn't. You have clearly barely ever played football. COYP**

Yes, better better to wait till we're right in the relegation zone so we're, or should I say the dwindling minority are sure as we are he's failing and will continue to do so. Then relegation so we knew we were right. COYP

Weird timing. Whether AP was Remain or Pardxit. But we're not the first Premiership outfit to be effed over by Trumpy-pumpy US shareholders... look where it got Villa et al. Good luck, Pards, sorry it ended like this. Now, I wonder if Venables is available (if we can hide the biscuit tin)...?!

Originally posted by Inapickle ..taking McArthur off and putting Campbell on didn't result in us having no defenders, I counted eleven players against eleven players .... A really stupid comment. Are you saying that you really approved of taking off a midfielder who was possibly MotM and who had effectively kept the £96 million Pogba under control to replace him with a reserve striker with a few minutes left in the game to hold on to a well deserved and vital point ? Clueless -just like Pardew!!!! Thank God Parish has got his head screwed on !!! Pardews tactics that night just mirrored his actions in the games versus Burnley,Swansea and Hull. If he had been more worried about clean sheets and hanging on to points we could've got at least 7 more points from those 4 games and we would've been sitting pretty plus he would still been in the job. Instead of that his ego and stupid all attack policy backfired. As I said before - he only has himself to blame!

Originally posted by Flightsequence I'd give up mate. Some people have never played the game and think if a sub comes on he has to directly replace the man going off! Some people haven't got the capacity to realise the team had already been reconfigured to allow this to happen without weakening the team. And yes, it was just sht luck that we let that goal in. I guess it would have been a different scenario had Campbell scored or there were no further goals. Still, a bit of a rocky road ahead. Probably three weeks until the new man gets a grip of things, and by then it could be too late. Can you imagine if we win at Watford what people will say about how the team has improved without Pardew. Laughable. I've played the game and so have others and I'm sorry but what you've said is garbage. Reconfigured the team? What are you going on about? Jimmac was playing no 10/midfield. Watch the last 10 mins. A few minutes before that falling over by Cabaye, Jimmac was tackling a few short yards from that very spot. Campbell comes on and he is in front of the ball the whole time: Reconfigured the team? Pfffffffffft. Pardew has destroyed it himself. Over and over the again the same issues. Arrogance and a lack of respect for the important and delicate position he's in. He steered himself to this, no one else. COYP*

I thought that might be when we were in the relegation zone and losing touch.. I think we should be massively grateful that we have Steve Parish at the helm of our club. He obviously liked Pardew and went out of his way to get him and then totally backed him on transfers, tactics and in the media however he is astute enough to see the light and to act decisively for the best interest of the club. With the transfer window coming up and Big Sam available he acted to prevent us sliding deeper into the mire. There is just too much at stake to leave things as they were. He has barely put a foot wrong since he took over the club and once again I totally back him in this latest decision. No way could he gamble on Pardew based on the 2016 league stats.
