We don't win next week against fellow out of form WBA?

Will we win against Liverpool, Man Utd or Swansea? Probably not in all fairness. Will we lose all 3? Again, IMO most probably.

We have a League Cup game v the Posh as well in between and then a little local affair at the SOL.

If we lost all 5 league games that would mean 8 out of opening 9 games lost and including a derby. Could the manager survive that or would the crowd turn? Whats the consensus of opinion?


The plain fact is we have outplayed Fulham and lost; scraped a draw against Southampton (could have easily lost this one too); lost badly to average relegation favourites Palace; lost at home again to a decent Arsenal team today (albeit playing okay in patches but not good enough overall) and now face another 5 season defining matches in PDC's fledgling managerial career here at our club.


Whilst there will be some who don't like the question, its a very realistic one to ask given our current plight.

What happens if we lose the next 5 games (inc a derby game) which will be 8 out of 9 played and have 1 point after 9 games? If oit were Bruce or MoN with that opening 9 games would they have survived? I think not.

Do we keep PDC, or do we have say Gus Poyet or Roberto Di Mateo (just two credible available managers we could turn to) hanging on the phone ready to step up for the rest of the season?

Will Short keep his nerve or will he cash in his chips if we do lose the next 3 or 4 games?

PDC is the manager that Steve Bruce failed to be.

Your manager will take you to another level.

<championship>
 
The insults flying around this board at the moment are dire. When did it cease being acceptable to call someone a dickhead?

All of this I'm rubber and you're glue stuff...

****ing hell.
 
Things are looking up for you now.

PDC.

Powerful.

Dynamic.

Control.

Relegation.

Congratulations on the ****test post this year. <ok>
You came over from the darkside where you should be worrying about your own shower of **** manager to post it too. Well done.

Pardew.

Prick
Already
Relegated
Deluded
Empty headed
****ers

Notice I didn't have to stick an extra letter in like you daft lad.

You need to change your name from "Joker" to "Thickcunt" it would be much more apt!

<laugh>. I have to laugh as crying would probably make it worse. We are both equal in ineptitude. Onwards and upwards though marra. Things have to get better.

I wouldn't mind a bit of luck coming our way mate.
We seem to be having a lot of luck, but the bugger is all bad.
I was disappointed in the way we were playing under MON.
We are starting to play some canny football under PDC and are definitely fitter.
Now all we need is a break in the bad luck.

Can't all be bad luck, MR.

Of course it isn't.
Bad refereeing doesn't help.
Injuries to our better players. (We missed Fletcher big time, and now we are going to be without him again.)
Brown still not fit.
Our final ball is still ****.
Is PDC blameless?
Nope, but the team we had out today should have been more than capable of getting points at WBA.

I'm starting to wonder how much say PDC has had in the incoming players.

Should is a bit like if, mate.

Fact is that they didn't.

Agree with you that the style of play is better than the chalk on a blackboard of O'Neill, but I'm very much afraid that this season has bad stamped all over it.

Could be wrong. Hope I am.
