rafa no leadership no ambition no idea

by the way, why shouldn't we lose to a championship side ... everybody keeps saying we only have a championship level team.

If we had won last night PBoro still would have found a negative angle.

It's quite obvious that he doesn't like Rafa.

It would of been we didn't score enough goals.

Nothing Rafa could do, will or would be good enough.

Still think Rafa should change his attacking options now and again, other teams know his game plan and set up their teams accordingly. Having said that, I certainly wouldn't want him gone, who would you replace him with ?
Still have faith we will come good under him.

I agree about his changing up of tactics and I don't exactly want him gone, but we all soon will if he doesn't stop the negative tactics.
I'm not asking for gung ho football but I am asking for entertainment from our team rather than the opposition fans gaining that enjoyment.
A nice balance would be good.

i predicted a win
i expected a win

i have said i dont mind loosing
what i do mind is his negative footy

he makes me negative

if we had gone down 6-2 and shased the game with 2 forwards i would have been happier

but we didnt

we went out on a wimper

we slated pardew for his negativity and showing no love for the cup as everyone said ash didnt want a cup run so he dint have to buy players etc etc
and concentrate on the league

despite what bullsh1t3 he spouts about the owner
he is no different to pardew

negative footy
no plan B
no improvement from players

You'd of only been happier because you could of whinged more

You are correct, we have no divine right to win any game.
However, we do have a right to expect Rafa to set the team out to have a real go at these teams that are near on par with us, rather than sit back and afford them the spoils of the chances at the target.
