    That wasn't your point though. You tried to diss Howe and got badly wrong. Just admit it.

    Actually the point being made was Pardew doing well and the issue being the owner.

    So if that was your point, why try to make it about Howe needing money (and getting it factually incorrect)?

    That point is howe was doing poorly until big money came in post the Ashley ownership. Tbh it wasn't even me talking about ownership in the 1st place.

    Pardew did well was the point being made.

    Look at the results improve after spending 120 million. Again the point is pardew did well here and howe didn't until the new ownership spent money.

    I know the fans like to pretend he turned water into wine but he didn't..the ownership was the issue and that's why Pards did well.

    Keep squirming mate.

    Here's a tip though, check some facts first, eh.

    Pardew's NUFC record:
    Played 185
    Won 71
    Drew 41
    Lost 73
    win percentage 38.4

    League positions:
    12th
    5th
    16th
    10th

    So by "Pardew did well", you mean he had 1 good season.

    And Howe won his 3rd game, before the first transfer window. So your other 'fact' was simply incorrect.

    Pardew finished 5th under the Ashley Reign which was an excellent return. The owner then sold our best players and things went downhill. I know you can't just admit that and that's why you're pulling up stats to justify dismissing that.

    Howe's results were poor until we spent 120 million.. I may have missed on win, but the fact is things were not getting better until the money came into play... funny that isn’t it? Money dictates things in the main.

    Essentially you didn't like pardew so you cannot just accept he did well under the circumstances and better than any other in the Ashley reign.

    So you agree? Really when you consider the owner pardew did do well. The sad part was when Ashley sold that side and then everyone blamed the manager.... the replacement players were absolute ****e.

    I wouldn't agree with you if you were absolutely right anyway.
