Pardew on relegation

edited April 2011 in General Charlton
Pardew in the paper today (talking about Newcastle):
'The readjustment of relegation isn't always a bad thing. You can put things in line financially and the mentality of the club can change. It's never a bad trait in your life to be humbled.'

So there we have it. Relegation is such a good thing he decided we should have a double dose.

    Well, he certainly humbled our club. Tosser.

    There's something in that, he's done well everywhere since and before to be fair.
  • Not a popular view but as soon as Curbishley left and our artificial position in the premiership was re aligned with our means I don't think any manager could have stopped the tailspin that has been Charlton Athletic. Dowie, Reid, Pardew and Parkinson were all part of that tailspin and can anyone really yet say with conviction that we have actually bottomed out. Pardew et al was a disaster but so was practically every aspect of the club. hopefully a line has been drawn under all of that with the new board in place. Blaming Pardew and co for all our ills is tunnel visioned and doesn't take account of the bigger picture.
  • I nearly chocked on my cornflakes when I read that this morning!

    I'd also dispute that he did well at West Ham. Okay he turned them into a cup team but let's not forget when he was sacked they were in a relegation fight and said as much at the time. One of those occassions when I'd have been very happy to have been proved wrong... :-(
  • Puts the K in Knob. If Newcastle were sane he would never have a job.
  • Newcastle are my bet to go down next year

    No he hasn't. He struggled to get a good West Ham side promoted, blew a two goal lead in the cup final, would've got West Ham relegated had they not sacked him, under achieved at Southampton and hasn't done any better at Newcastle than Hughton would've done. They'll go down next year.
  • He's a good manager.
