Pardew Has His Excuse Ready For Saturday!

Last updated : 31 October 2013 By Footy Mad - Editor

But if things should go wrong on Saturday against Chelsea, he has a ready made excuse: "Well, we played extra-time on Wednesday."

And boy does he LOVE his excuses!

Alan Pardew: "It can transform your season, a win against Chelsea or Spurs, and that's what we have got to look for.

"It is frustrating because it's difficult when there's such emotion riding after the Sunderland game, and I understand that.

"But we are hurt as well. When you have played your heart out and in the 85th minute the opposition smash it in the top corner!

"We are down and we need a lift and I hope our fans give us a lift on Saturday.

"They did last night and we responded to that, and they need to be in really, really good voice for us to have a chance against Chelsea.

"I think we have got an even chance against Chelsea, I genuinely do, as well as they are playing because I think my team is playing well.

"But you need those breaks and things to go your way and the first goal will be important in this fixture.

"To beat one of the top teams you need to be at your very best.

"You cannot win a game in the Premier League, when they have got the resources they have got, unless you are at your very best."

MAGPIES IN EUROPE -

HARVEY TO PARDEW

sThe new version of "Magpies In Europe" will be launched next week.

Although NUFC are not talking to the Chronicle or Sunday Sun ... we are!

And the full story is expected to be in newspapers within the next two weeks.

The official new title is "Magpies In Europe - Harvey To Pardew" and is an up-dated version of "From Antwerp To Zurich" - which includes the 14 Europa League fixtures we played last season.

The 280-page book features match reports from the 134 European matches Newcastle United have played, starting with the memorable 4-0 win over Feyenoord in 1968 on our European debut. 

Included are stats and the figures you would expect, but also each away fixture has the remarkable experiences of individuals who travelled to watch the matches. 

fIntroduction by "Big Bad" John McNamee, part of the Fairs Cup winning team of 1969.

It is a fascinating history that every Newcastle United fan will enjoy. 

And with a limited print-run, make sure you order a copy.
