Can't imagine he will be in charge at Newcastle after tomorrow.
there`s just something about him I can`t stand.
he has to go, the team hasnt won since May!! The geordies have always had dellusions of gradure but they shouldnt be that low in the table!
Not really - Pardew is shocking in the long term and needs to goFunny old game football isn't it.
4 weeks ago couldn't buy a point for love nor money. Today? Just beaten Man City at Man City and have now won 3 straight in a row, unbeaten in 4.
Lesson to be learned re Pressley perhaps? After Oldham there were sustained callds for his head. After going 7 unbeaten we go 7 without a win.
Suddenly we have an excellent win against Peterborough. That could be just the boost we need to get our form back on track.
As I say, funny old game and there is a lot to be said for patience. Could well be Newcastle will go on another poor run, who knows, but to get things right does take time and an 'instant' fix isn't usually the answer.

Despite the unimaginable pressure from the Newcastle grossly over expectant "fans" AP has kept his dignity given his all to the club and now sits on three wins in a row and has clearly not lost the dressing room.
He has passion for the club and the players appear to want to play for him so let's back off a tad and may the good work continue after all I dread to think how another loss by SP would have been received in the same circumstances.
9th in the table and in the quarter finals of the cup now.
Why, on the whole Pardew is a steady performer.
Problem is that the Newcastle fans believe they should be in the champions league and cup finals every year.
He's had one fantastic year where they finished 5th, one poor year where they finished 16th and an average year where they finished 10th. The Newcastle owner isn't really interested in getting into Europe or winning cups. Pardew with Newcastle will get top 10 probably about 8 times out of 10 and probably flirt with the top 7 every now and then.
Newcastle did the same with Allardyce and sacked him and as a result they were relegated to the championship.
I don't think he's a great manager but I don't think he deserves to be sacked either.

If you regularly get 50,000 at home, would you not expect more from the club? Achievements wise?

They have the potential to achieve more yes.
The reason why they don't is Mike Ashley
If any one could buy Newcastle off him, at a reasonable price, they could make a fortune. Easily a top 4 club with the right players.
Same could be said for the City in League One.
I just mean, they have the support/money to be a top 4 team, but if they buy mediocre players, when they can afford top players, they will always be a mid table team.
Unfortunately, we don't have the support or money

They haven't got the money and the support is not so great when the going gets tough.
so 50,000 average since 2001, and 43,000 in div 2, is not so great? They are the 4th best supported club in the premier league....
I don't know about their debts etc, but if 50,000 a week can't generate money to buy players, plus sponsorship, tv, global brand, then there is something seriously wrong somewhere...
How many fans are still showing their 'Pardew out' signs now eh??

They've won again since then. That's 5 wins on the bounce and 6 unbeaten.
