Legod Third Coming Posted 31 August, 2010 Posted 31 August, 2010 Not yet. Although both have proven that they know more about money than football. The timing of Pardew's sacking is appaling and shows a real lack of judgement. The transfer window is closed. Pardew has spent money on players the new man may not want/need given his own style of play. Both have shown that they do not appreciate the pivotal role a manager plays in the success of the club and the freedom that must be extended to him. I heard a brilliant debate with Dave Whelan, David Gould and Barry Hearn on fivelive tonight. It's well worth a 'related' listen. If we are promoted this year, Cortese will be forgiven of course. But I would say as of now our chances have gotten worse not better. Unless he intends to unveil Martin O'Neil....
oxfordshire_saint Posted 31 August, 2010 Posted 31 August, 2010 One ran our club to the brink of oblivion, the other was instrumental in saving it from said oblivion..............hmmm, yeah, they're equal. On the face of it, I don't agree with Pardew getting the boot so early, but we don't know what exactly went on behind the scenes to cause the decision. The coming months will tell if it was right or not.

The coming months will tell if it was right or not. And that should not be overlooked in the grand scheme of things. I don't recall Lowe putting any of his own money in. Although Cortese might not have other, but he was instrumental in finding some!!!
Saint_Jim Posted 31 August, 2010 Posted 31 August, 2010 Cortese is no lowe but hes going about things the wrong way IMO
S-Clarke Posted 31 August, 2010 Posted 31 August, 2010 Cortese is no lowe but hes going about things the wrong way IMO That's fair.
