Bakovnetski Posted 12 May, 2010 Share Posted 12 May, 2010 Maybe Cortese has simply cottoned onto the reality that teams in lower leagues are more often than not promoted when they have 'lower league managers' rather than 'higher league managers' that have dropped down a league it two? Just a thought, mind you... Yeah but Pards has been a lower league manager and been successful in getting promoted. Cotterill was bo**ocks when he tried his hand further up the ladder at Sunderland and managed a staggering 3.5 years at the mighty Burnley.

dune Posted 12 May, 2010 Share Posted 12 May, 2010 Its 10.50am, if Pards was being sacked, it would have happened by now in my opinion, ala Zola yesterday!!! Constructive meeting in progess hopefully!!! LOL, do you realise how daft that comment is? So if Pardew was going to sacked it would have been done ages ago, i.e yesterday. There is a meeting today apparently so if the upshot is that Pardew is getting sacked it'll hardly be out of line with Zolas dismissal yesterday. It's my view that if AP is to be sacked it'll happen today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint_Ash Posted 12 May, 2010 Share Posted 12 May, 2010 How ridiculous it would be to sack a manager that managed to get 83 points in a season even though the team he was managing failed to any decent amount of points for the first couple of months. I wonder how many points he'll manager with a fit squad high on morale. I'd be surprised if it would be less than 90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Faz Posted 12 May, 2010 Share Posted 12 May, 2010 If he is sacked - can only be for things that we arent aware of ie the personal realationship between NC and AP , which means they wont be able to work together through the 5 yr plan. On a footballing basis alone it makes no sense in the short term - we are well set to get promotion next year, changing the manager may improve us , but also as likley , if not more, to set us back in the short term at least.

alpine_saint Posted 12 May, 2010 Share Posted 12 May, 2010 This whole situation is completely bonkers and getting worse.... Look, AP hasnt been fired, or we would know about it.

John Boy Saint Posted 12 May, 2010 Share Posted 12 May, 2010 All very Swiss keeping all the cards close to their chests, send out info on a need to know basis and sending out the barest minimum. I would imagine that if it was a done deal it would have been out by now. However with all the players having been given their training packages for the summer break, with Rickie adding if it ain't done they will be found out, if AP knew he was destined for the door would he have even bothered to have set this regime in place. We live in a football world where sackings and dismissals have become a spectator sport driven by the media so a none story from back in the very early spring seems to have been through the recycler marked "Chinese Whispers additions". It would be nice to get a statement from the Football Club, but I think we will be waiting quite a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winchester Exile Posted 12 May, 2010 Share Posted 12 May, 2010 It would be nice to get a statement from the Football Club, but I think we will be waiting quite a while. Sorry but I don't agree. If I was NC I wouldn't react to every wild and wacky rumour that you lot, the press and every uncle Tom Cobbly starts. If he did he'd be doing nothing else and not getting any proper work done - like running the club. Whilst I suppose in theory there's nothing wrong with speculating on a board like this, the hysteria on this issue is just ridiculous.

St Marco Posted 12 May, 2010 Share Posted 12 May, 2010 So then nothing was happening.... daily echo did the whole pardew to be sacked thing and solent did the meeting thing.
