Pardew / Carver

[sherwoodmag]

WBA will get one good season out of Pardew,he does that everywhere he goes.Sacked from West Ham,Southampton and Chrystal Palace yet still gets a Prem job.

I'm happy for Carver that he's got a job again and i usually want Baggies to do well yet i also really want Pardew to fail - conundrum.

I think they'll be fine this season though with him.

With you there about the Baggies but I can see Pardew trying to impress too hard and with his inbuilt arrogance he could finish as a short term appointment and Carver may find himself in the hot seat yet again. We all know what happens to arrogant people don't we.

Couldn't believe it when I saw that Pardew has taken on Carver as his assistant at West Brom. Poor basturds don't know what's coming.

.. I remember when you lot were lording him .. Nowt more fickle than footy fans ..

Indeed. It´s amazing who pops out the woodwork after finally getting a positive result.

Well I was definitely a fan of his at one time, Andy.

Thing is-I wouldn't say fans (and it applies to all clubs) are fickle when they turn against someone they used to like as that means changing your mind for no particular reason. Pardew gave us enough reasons to turn against him and it's the same with players we (again, all clubs' fans) used to worship if they leave in a bad way-sounding off after leaving or even, in some players' cases, while they're still here.

West Brom are on a slippy slope with him, unfortunately.

.. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt regarding your personal fickleness mate .. Does seem that just about the lot of them have a shelf-life but there is still an awful lot of fickleness about I reckon ..

.. Yes, it is amazing .. And if we manage to get a home win on Saturday I'd expect a little more popping ..

Does that mean he'll be missing for another couple of months following an other bad run.

Aye, we'll be feckn sick of hearing Pardew saying 'over the line' and every other paragraph Carver talking about working with Sir Bob.

Aye, and the Stade-de-shyte is ground zero.
