He also says they would not have beaten us 6 Weeks ago . Fair do's . Whatever went on behind the scenes he has NEVER IMHO slagged us off or wished us ill .
Yep, fair play to him. Some very nice words in there. And no bitterness on my part. I mean, he's not the ex-Saints manager who I want us to get one over at the moment...
I always liked Pardew even before he came to us. I really disliked the way some fans tried to take the piss when we beat them at SMS. Now, as for the ex-Saints manager coming to visit next week ...
Nice words from AP. He is never less than fair. I remember when we got him as manager and was excited because he was perfect to turn Saints around. And he did. He certainly got the ball rolling and gave Saints a wonderful day at Wembley.
Apart from Pardew and Happy Harry, are there any ex Saints manager with a job manageing a league team? Can not think of any and we went through a fair few of them
Jan Pooltvield is managing a sunday league 5th division side telling everyone how it will revolutionise the world with 'total football'
In an interesting coincidence, Mark Wotte is a performance analyst in Gordon Strachan's Scotland staff.
Pardew has always spoken well of us. On our promotion to the PL, he said he knew we would always do well. He also said a while ago that there had never been any nastiness with Nicola, it just wasn't working out. I never seriously thought that Newcastle would go down, especially with the new players that came in.
Hear, bloody hear!! Please let's leave this "boy" out of any discussion that involves dignity and class unless we are talking about his sublime footballing ability.
