Parma Ham's gone mouldy 2,219 Posted December 22, 2016 Chairman Steve Parish: "We all bought into the decision to play a more expansive style of football. We all believed in it. That hasn''t worked. It''s no-one''s fault. The players have been running their socks off for Alan, the spirit is good."Expansive tactics are the preserve of the superior. Indeed it can be further observed that more tactically aware inferior sides (Leicester) even present a very real obstacle to (over) expansive approaches.Even suggesting openly that such a strategy is to be employed risks engendering a sense of hubris in players (and Managers), Norwich take careful.''We play our own game...we are not concerned what the opposition does'' has always been disingenuous, errant (or arrogant) nonsense.The approach is flawed, both for tactical and psychological reasons.Parma Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crabbycanary3 994 Posted December 22, 2016 Good grief, absolutely not. To quote a NCFC very important person (granted, no longer here) when asked about Pardew, gave this short and succinct answer; "What an odious man" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Van wink 2,994 Posted December 22, 2016 Good illustration Parma.It''s more about a disciplined structured approach with a bit of licence for flair within that.Now where have I seen that before 😀 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
6088m canary 0 Posted December 22, 2016 Contract to end of season: Pretty sure he''d get us up. Second season would be a worry though. However we can worry about that once we''re back in the PL.I do think the guy is a tosser but if he gets us up who cares?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoola Han Solo 448 Posted December 22, 2016 Never the sort of manager NCFC would go for. When honestly was the last time we got a ''name''? Lambert was a lower league manager and Hughton was a respectable appointment but not one to set the pulse going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Horse Renoir 1 Posted December 22, 2016 Never in a million years would our board appoint someone like Pardew. It''s character and likability first, managerial/tactical nous an obvious second.Pardew would be perfect in the short term to get us back where we desperately need to be. Has the contacts to get us a few quality signings should we go up and would probably leave us a good base for another manager to build from.Out of everyone out of work at the moment that we could afford (Everyone bar Allardyce basically) he''s the outstanding candidate by a mile. Would love to see him here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True Grit 26 Posted December 22, 2016 I must say Moxey and Pardew would have the potential to be an unstoppable force in English football. It''s weather they could marry though..I feel there could be an intense power struggle, but if they could syncronise as one organism, wow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
