Yohan Cabaye retires


Optimistic Nut

Ah yes. The dreamboat. Fond memories of him playing for us. Don’t blame him for leaving a Pardew team. It was too late for his sake, though, as he’d already been Pardewed like Cisse, Santon, and a few others as it turned out. He was never as good again.

 

Santon went on to play for Inter and is now playing for Roma, don't really feel his career got Pardewed.

Don't think I'll ever forget that game against Reading where Pards took him off and we lost :lol:

 

Remember it well. It was my 35th Birthday and the day before my son was born.  We were winning 1-0 (Cabaye) and then Reading equalised with about 20 mins left. Pardews response was to take Cabaye off and replace him with Bigirimana. Reading went and scored again almost immediately after the substitution and we lost 2-1. Don't think I've ever been so annoyed at the match. Had a fight with the bloke in front of me cos he was defending Pardew and I ended up getting kicked out by the stewards and had my season ticket confiscated.

 

In hindsight, probably should thank the guy.

 

It was all downhill from there.
