NEWCASTLE boss Alan Pardew insists his team should fear no one as they attempt to extend their remarkable run of form. The Magpies climbed into the top five in the Barclays Premier League on Saturday evening as a result of a 1-0 victory over QPR, their fifth in succession in the league and sixth in all competitions. That represents a remarkable turnaround for a manager who just a matter of weeks ago was facing concerted calls for his head from disgruntled fans. The 53-year-old is keeping his feet firmly on the ground as he prepares for a December fixture list which includes clashes with Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United as well as a derby showdown with Sunderland, although he is not unduly concerned by the task ahead. Asked how important it was to have beaten QPR ahead of that tough schedule, Pardew said: “You could have argued that three games ago, four games ago. “We had Manchester City and Liverpool and Spurs and we sailed through that, so don’t look at the fixtures and think that there’s anything that we can’t deal with. “It is a tough December, there’s no doubt about that, but the team is in such a good place today, we were so disciplined today. “I think anybody who recognises Premier League football and watches it on a regular basis would see that as a really powerful performance from a young team, so that was really good for us.”
Turned on Pardew like they did on Bobby Robson, they will build another statue for a man they drove out and vilified next. Sad lot.
Yes all Newcastle fans wanted Pardew out and now all fans want him in. Reality is that most fans have a healthy distrust of him as a man and of his abilities as a manager. He's pretty average but after a handful of games into this season we had picked up 6pts from our previous 14 games and had a -21 goal difference. Going back further we had 19 pts from the previous 27 games, that isn't flirting with relegation form that is horrific and would get pretty much any other manager sacked - I can't think of one who has survived a comparable run (though there may be the odd occasion). The media decided to focus on how Newcastle fans complained a handful of games into the season as if the previous 8 months hadn't happened.
I am going for ten nil to Newcastle for obvious reasons. See last year. How lucky the mags got tiote getting injured
I couldn't get to the end my ears were bleeding. [video=youtube;lKocnwNp7R8]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKocnwNp7R8[/video]
Mate starting up on attendances isn't the way to go, we trump you in almost every regard on that one. We get more in the Championship than you do in the premier league ffs. A couple of years back you couldn't sell out a single game except against us
