shame the lad was on crutches, i'm sure he would have had a bit of a kick around. Always though Pardew was an arrogant ****ing cock, that comment about just cements those views for me like. Rafa just ****ing oozes class!
In their respective times at Newcastle I would consider they are both on a par considering what they both achieved. I think Rafa if he stays and we get a tad more investment to the playing squad then he will easily surpass it. As a human being on the other hand, Rafa > the slimey old **** > Pardew
When we take his promiscuous history into account, it looks like Pards was drunkenly moving in for a kiss on Meyler.
Pardew - took over at a difficult time after the popular Chris Houghton had been sacked, guided us to safety, fantastic second season of incredible attacking football, got us into Europe and into the quarter finals of the Europa with some unforgettable nights, survived a turbulent time with Cabaye being sold and Kinnear making decisions above his head, hammered Man U, beat Chelsea numerous times, and showed us what we were missing when he came back to hammer us 5-1 as Palace manager. Rafa - relegation yeah **** that, Pardew was an utter embarassment from start to finish, the only fun in his reign was from guessing which of the player's wives he was shagging, silver haired slimey sleeze bag, rubber faced front for Ashley's sleeze, losing to Stevenage, headbutting Meyler, calling Pellegrini an old ****, and nicely reminding us how **** he is by registering the worst record of all 92 clubs in a calendar year at Palace, before single handedly taking a decent West Brom team down. Begone, Pardew!
Defo Jimi we'll stick to our guns. Rafa may be more polite but the results were better under Pardew under the same if not worse constraints, he could pull for fun, and if he didn't like something, he didn't piss fart around bitching to the media in cryptic messages, he just assaulted them with a shove or a headbutt. Pardew is a true NUFC legend. Rafa is a work in progress. There are those who try to do him down buying into pathetic lies about shagging players wives etc, but at the end of the day he got the job done and was the last manager to taste Europe. Took us pretty far too only losing to a top side.
Well there is no bite, these are genuinely held opinions of me and Jimi. We call as it is rather than some of the less intelligent NUFC supporters viewpoint. You know the ones. "Rafa is mint man, best manager in the warld like, won stuff and that like, can't dee nee wrang like, I'd polish his knerb for him like" aka Rob. Me and Jimi do however appreciate that you chosen the greatest of the sea creatures to describe us. We accept this reference as accurate - we are the kings of this board. The ultimate predators, undisputed kings with only one known predator - even then on only rare occasions and there ain't no killer whales on here (Jak is simply a whale).
If the players can't satisfy their wives then it's folly to lambast Pardew for doing so. The man goes way above his remit in the interest of keeping equilibrium within the female side of the marital home, and all strength to him. I can't imagine Benitez flying down to London to give Kenedy's bird a good seeing to in an effort to stop him getting grief and subsequently under performing on the pitch. Pardew the pioneer or Alan fullsack, depending on your view of the man deserves far more credit than he gets.
