Could do his own book on them.What has been your favourite. Mine has to be "in the clubs I have managed we have always had a strong second half to the season" oh well Al another quote "first time for everything"
The best above all has to be " CAFC fans will see entertaining football this season" not by your team we didnt Pardew and to be honest not much by anyone else.
Has anyone noticed his first two letters of his surname are PA and they are the same as the first two letters of PAlarse !!! spooky that. Its like one of those hiden code thingys in the bible or at Canterbury Catherdral, maybe its got somethingto do with FreeMasons !!!!

"goalscoring has been a problem - 10 or 11 games we have lost by just 1 goal......."
He's finally seen the light and hit the nail on the head. As I have said on here many times this season, goals win games. QPR was the nadir as our first shot on target was after 85 mins and hopefully tomorrow we may see some improvement.
If a striker can't shot he shouldn't be on the pitch.

In fairness, if the striker isn't getting the ball, there isn't much he can do.
I'm not saying our strikers are the best but with some decent service would certainly have scored more.
"We have to play five of the top six at home so it is all in our own hands" mmm well done Al but i think you should have focused on the bottom teams that beat us
beat me to it da9 i was reading his comments and going to say exactly that all it is is lip service,i take everything he says with a pinch of salt now.

Cue more strikers bought in during the close season, a couple of left backs and a few wingers and no central midfielders to boss the games and create chances
He also needs to think about the defence it wasn't just the lack of goals scored it was the amount we let in. There weren’t many home games where we didn't gift teams a goal or two lead.
You have to start at the back when building a solid side for this league.
You have to go back to 1st Feb for our last game without conceding, Sheff Utd 0 - 2; they were so bad they got slaughtered by the manager for a bad performance. The fact they are now above us probably proves it was their inept performance rather than our defending that achieved the 0.
Next, Feb Sheff Wed 0 -0 say no more.
January 1 - 0 Stoke, ok decent performance but should Stoke have scored.
Dec Cardiff 0 - 2 again opposition slaughtered for performance.
There you have it one clean sheet per month.
The only sequences of good results with not conceding were in Nov we had four, Southampton 0 -1, Bristol C 0 - 1, Cardiff 3 - 0 and Preston 0 - 2. The central pairing was loaned Sodje & Fortune.
We have had a problem in midfield for to long and it needs to be addressed but results show the defence has now become just as big a problem. If you are always on the back foot chasing the game because of conceding individual error goals then it does become harder to create and the pressure on strikers is more intensified.

"the one thing we can all hope is that Palace don't make the play offs"
did he actually or was that a piss take?
you forgot about last season!!
Have to say this a lot more honest measured piece from Pards in my view.
Thumb up from me.

Ex palarse semi final cup hero saying that, he's just paying lip service to keep Charlton fans happy, he doesnt really mean it deep down.
:)
If you think that was anything other than lip service than your a mad person with garibaldis for teeth and a wibble for a hat.
