I wasn't judging him on one season I would have thought that the finishing 5th and not being relegated comment might have suggested so, but hey ho.

I was merely stating cold hard facts, nowt to do with his persona or any other view clouding nonesense, statistically hes the best manager Newcastle have had in years.

Now tell me I'm wrong about that :confused:
Better than McLaren and Allardyce by the looks of it.

Includes a season in the Championship though? Not really a fair comparison

You could say he's taken a team from 19th to 10th then. Pardew took a team from where (about 11th) and mainly hung around there or below. Even taking his best season the improvement was not as good.
You can cherry pick statistics to prove any point you want, but everyone knows Pardew is a shit manager. Fans of every club he's been at suss him out quick enough.
You wouldn't want him manager here and nor would anyone who knows anything about football.

I don't think Pardew is the better manager, but he took a mid table team to 5th and into Europe, winning manager of the season award. Benitez took a team over at 19th but got relegated. Managed 10th after getting back to the Premier League. Pardew achieved far more.

I'd say Pardew took them backwards with the exception of one season. Benitez has steadied them then improved them. Happy to disagree though and still to meet a football fan who would want Pardew near their club.

He got lucky and had a good team that season.....on the whole he is a ****.Benitez is just f***ing good.
 
"Rafa" must have known the state of the mags' finances for a while and yet he still goes running to the media with his demands. The truth is he doesn't give a fuck about Nufc. It's all about him, there's not a chance Fat Mike will back down and give him what he wants

Yes but one season in the championship with wads of cash kinda skews the percentages. Most of the others were EPL only. Context dear boy!!!
 
The mags relationship with "Rafa" is like some geek who somehow manages to pull a trophy wife but has to have reassurances all the time and constantly asking if "everything is alright". It's not healthy
