The squad on paper should be better after that spend but we still short of quality defender, goalkeeper and a linking midfielder. Worst of all we have a Manager who can't do his job and I'm not convinced that some of the more expensive members of his squad have been worth what we have paid for them?

He's lost the last 6 you fool.

Poor prep taking his eye off the ball in 1st game v West Brom.

International break and then West Ham.

We have only beaten a poor Stoke at the time, Sunderland and Mboro.

We let in 2,3,4,5 goals a game and you have die hard players falling asleep and others falling out with him on a monthly or is it weekly basis now? He's ripped the spirit and glue out of the squad and I'm not surprised following his previous treatment of players and other shenanigans. And what about the 'if your dinner looks nicer than mine then we swap' type bullying at West Ham. He's had a good run but it's over.

Sunderland survived by getting Sam in early. Newcastle left Benitez too late. We can do one or the other.

But one thing's for sure. The population living up Pardew's arrogant rectum has dwindled to about 6 people.

Yep let's wait till we're absolutely sure he's the worst manager points wise out there when we're bottom and nobody wants the job.

You're smart.

Trouble is I just can't see him turning this around. He may win a few games, but I fear the next bad run would be just around the corner. I'm just sick to death of it. It's the first time I can ever remember that I'm not looking forward to going to selhurst Saturday.

I think our biggest problem is lack of leadership.
Why is there no fighting face on the field.
It is not Pardew who is kicking the ball around, it is the players! And no one seemes to take that responsibility it is to be a leader.
If we only had someone like Jedinak, he was a true leader and that is what this team lacks.
A f***ing leader on the field.
Do we have one in our group???
Johan Cabaye?
Flamini?who hasn`t played yet?
Dann?
Mcartur?

Getting rid of AP is not the first thing to do. And who to replace him?

Warnock???? Big Sam or as my son says "very big Sam"

It is not that easy, best thing is to keep AP for he time beeing and let him turn things around.

If things are not better by end of year, then replace him.

Indeed it is; it has become increasingly clear that Pardew is a seriously inadequate leader.
