Is it even Andre? I seem to recall he and Pardew not getting along all that well.
No, they do get on well. Something around about it from when we played them first game of the season.

Wenger is on the phone right now to the FA.............serious case of collusion!!!! bringing the game into disrepute
Would like to know when that photo was taken.
I'd like to stand up for Pardew.
I was out playing golf with some mates when we bumped into Pardew who was just with a couple of buddies. This was a few days before his West Ham team played the FA cup Final.
One of my mates is a hammer And he went over to have say hello. Pardew let him sit down with his group and told him how the build up was going and made my mates day.
What goes around comes around. I just wanted to stand up for the bloke a bit.
Mind you, If they go down without a fight I'll be revising my opinion.
COYS.
Interesting, especially when you compare that to another former West Ham manager more familiar to our club who when out with his mates whenever I saw him was a total tw*t
No no no. Saudi Sportswashing Machine are a massive club. You obviously don't know brick. <sarcasm smiley>
"Small time club". My small time club have come in the top 3, five times since Tottenham last did. To be fair if it was Tottenham who needed to do us a favour I'd be asking the same questions, but we're Saudi Sportswashing Machine not Oxford United, I'll be surprised if we lose on Sunday if we play like our last two games, but the two prior to that, well different story.
I appreciate many on here are new football fans, but we're Saudi Sportswashing Machine, the third best supported club in the country by gates. Only a complete idiot would think our fans would accept anything other than 100% effort against Arsenal. The last two performances against West Ham and QPR, have been a lot better. If we play well we won't lose to Arsenal that is a fact. They've only won here in the league something like three times in the last 15 years, and this is their worst side in that period in my view, also we've had worse sides than this who have beaten them.
I really don't think many people on here have a clue about English football if you think Saudi Sportswashing Machine will lie down for Arsenal, we're not Wigan or Reading, we didn't even lose 9 home games when we were relegated, if we do Pardew should walk, he should walk anyway. Irrespective of what Pardew is saying, there's a clause in his contract that says if we come bottom 5 he can be sacked with one years compo, if he's sacked outside the bottom five its his full contract. We'll be fine, just concentrate on beating Sunderland. I repeat we are Saudi Sportswashing Machine at St James' Park in front of 53,000. Would you be confident of winning here given the fact you hardly ever do?
You know, I sense a differing in the public opinion about the top 4 race this year. Last year we looked like losers, choke artists that should have long since before the final day secured CL football.
This year, because of the fact that we are on for a record points total, most people acknowledge the fact that we have been damn good for a lot of the season and Arsenal needing to go into the last day to be in with a chance of finishing one point ahead of us, despite generating £100M more in revenue, just isn't that impressive.
I sense it being different this year, whatever happens. Hopefully that can relate to the players and they can have confidence in what they have achieved, which can translate to next season. We haven't choked, we've largely been in good form and gotten good results. Sure, Arsenal's run has seen them close the gap on us but for £100M extra per year, you'd kind of expect something more from them than a chance of finishing one point ahead.
We can be really proud of our team this year, whatever happens.

Choked or was it simply a lack of form? A slump?Why didnt City close the gap on Utd if that is the case about money ?
Imo, we choked for a good few weeks back, and thats whats fudged it for us.

Record points or not we choked, 7 points clear, followed by throwing away a game at Anfield, Home To Fulham away To Wigan etc. Other teams we are up against just didnt do this at this stage.Choked or was it simply a lack of form? A slump?
