But he did and he's had his chance. I never like to retrieve objects from my dustbin once I've thrown them away so "no thank you".

Denial is not just a river in Egypt

Obviously won't happen, literally 0 chance. But he's better than Monk so here's to hoping. Otherwise, no thanks.

All options should be considered before.

Dont let Cabaye go

Except you weren't joking; you post this sort thing all the time.

If you go by statistics then Pardew had a better win rate than Allardyce and any other of our previous 7 managers bar Pulis.
Had he had better coaching staff
(e.g. like Sammy Lee) I doubt if we would have sunk so low that he had to be sacked.

I am not advocating his return but I think Parish's task is a formidable one. We need a young go-getter with the number one priority of sorting out our abysmal home form. I never understood we were so bad at home with the best and most vociferous crowd in the league behind us.

Definitely none of the old school (Hodgson, etc) or anyone not proficient in English (Matterazzi)

But Pardew started with a fit team and Allardyce started with one which Pardew had f***ed up beyond all recognition, and had to fix it before he could do anything else.
