Infidel, I think bringing Sheringham on instead of James Collins was his biggest error that day.

Will never forgive him for taking Fletcher off in the Cup Final and bringing on his best friend, Dailly.

"Yeah, we're 3-2 up, we're cruising, why not give Christian a chance to say he's played in a Cup Final before he retires?"

It's one thing when managers make honest tactical mistakes but when they make sentimental decisions that have nothing to do with football, especially on such an important occasion for the fans, they deserve nothing but abuse.

I hope Palace get relegated under him.

If he'd stayed we would have been relegated.

It is true though that he does appear to have learnt from his mistakes.

Next manager of the filth I reckon .hes good on a tight budget and always buys young players with a good resale value which is exactly what levy wants .

Jimmy Walker was probably my favourite non-first choice keeper we've had.

Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?
I was sooo pissed off when he went ...

Still to this very day I think it was a big mistake to let him go.

Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?
Pardew was a very fine manager and we should have kept him.
I also had great fun watching west ham when Pardew was manger. The FA cup final (which we drew) was definitly my west ham highlight in the last 30 years!
It got it all a bit wrong of a mess before he left, but we should have stayed with him.

I can not see him going up north again after his Geordie experience...

The point is, Pards never parked the bus without at least leaving it in gear.

GreenStreetPlayer 12:13 Mon Aug 31
Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?
It's about timing sometimes and he needed to go at that time.
Experience since then has made him a better manager, and you can see his career going a lot further as he becomes wiser and more knowledgeable.

Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?
Pardew seems to be a manager that makes a lot of mistakes but learns from them, and becomes a better manager each time. I don't think it would have worked out well if he had stayed, but I wouldn't mind having him back one day.

Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?
It's worth remembering about the financial disaster that followed that it was the profit made on many of Pards' signings that kept us afloat. Harewood, Reo-Coker, Etherington, Benayoun, Konchesky, Mullins, Collins were all sold on for far more than Pards paid. And if sold at the right time we would have made significant profits on the likes of Ashton, Gabbidon, Green and Cole.

Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?
If he'd stayed he'd still have had to go through the financial disaster that occurred, when we couldn't even buy Diamanti without taking sponsorship money from about 4 years down the line!

Anything could have happened then. I don't think he'd have been the manager to take us through that.

If Pardew had the money Curbishley had we'd have got in the Champions League!

Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?
It was time for him to go but he certainly wouldn't have bought the fucking shit players that Alan Curbishley brought in that transfer window that nearly crippled the club.

Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?
Sven they didn't used to love him there. He was nicknamed the donkey and the crowed used to make eee-or noises at him.

Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?
He won premiership manager of the season with newcastle, not many win that, don't get that by being a poor manager.

Sven Roeder 11:04 Mon Aug 31
Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?

Older and wiser now.
Very decent manager.

Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?
Found his level - small club where he can be the KING.

MikeHammer 10:30 Mon Aug 31
Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?
I will always love his time at West Ham mostly for promotion and a FA Cup final .... And the little matter of getting 33-1 on him becoming manager and winning more than a grand ... Due to WHO watching Paddy Power odds!!!!

Re: Alan pardews tenure at west ham , and what if he stayed?
What if Lyall or Greenwood stayed !!!
