If he sorts his head out he could become England's next manager as much as I hate to say it, he is a good manager but a real **** at the same time..

Please God no, he's a complete c**k, ask West Ham or Charlton or Southampton fans if they rate him.
 

Alan Pardew

One of the luckiest managers in football. Watch his decline after Newcastle sack him for gross misconduct
 

Alan Pardew

FA chairman Greg Dyke says he believes the Alan Pardew headbutting incident is "serious" and the FA "will investigate"
 

Alan Pardew

I have long since despaired about the legacy the modern day footballers and managers are leaving for the next generation - play acting, rushing to the referee to get someone booked/sent off, arguing with every decision, total disrespect for the officials - God knows what the next generation will be like. Of course, if FIFA, UEFA or even the FA had any balls they would have clamped down on this years ago but they have failed football

I used to go out of my way to watch every premier league match on TV - not any more, I really can't be bothered. Pardew's antics today are just the tip of the iceberg - he will probably get a meaningless ban and an even more meaningless fine and things will carry on in the same indisciplined way and gradually decline further

I am reminded of a quote from the Irish rugby player Paul O'Connell, when describing the difference between football players & rugby players said something along the lines of "In football, if a player gets touched, he goes down as if shot - in rugby, if you get punched in the face, you try to act as if nothing has happened"

I'm not condoning punching someone in the face, obviously, but football has been allowed to lose it's soul over the years and the managers, the very people who should be maintaining standards, unfortunately do not have any

The bloke is a grade one bell end!

:thetruth: :thetruth: :thetruth: :thetruth:

Oh b***ocks, I wanted to LIKE this comment but already have. Can I double my like?
 

Alan Pardew

he's on 10 year contract, no way will they get rid..

Gross Misconduct though. Perfect excuse to get rid with no pay off. Surely. And take Andy ****ing Woodman with you.

you seem to be suggesting that footballers are soft in comparison to eggchasers,who are often seen having full on punch ups during games.......then say standards and discipline in football are lacking........should we not then be more tolerant of emotional outbursts on the football pitch to align ourselves with our peanut hugging counterparts?
 

Alan Pardew

He's been losing it for a while now, only the other week he had a pop at pellegrinni
 

Alan Pardew

Pardew deserves every thing he gets and maybe difficult to retain respect of players or instil discipline with the example he set today.

On a different note why is it part of the game for a rugby players to exchange punches, bite and gouge on the pitch as long as they buy each other a beer or drink their own piss afterwards but in football it's bordering on a criminal offence for raising your hands to an opponent?

Never understood the hypocrisy.
 

Alan Pardew

Headbutt???? More like a peck on the cheek. Good on the Hull lad for not rolling around on the floor. It was wrong but he should get exactly the same ban and fine as a player would for doing the same thing.
 

Alan Pardew

No sympathy for Pardew, and the FA should throw the book at him etc.

But taking a step back, this surely shows that the pressure on Managers is becoming ever closer to intolerable?

For example, when an otherwise mild-mannered chap like Pellegrini is prompted to call a Referee biased etc, then merely booting out obvious cocks like Pardew isn't going to be the end of it.

And tbf to him, Newcastle must be a particularly hard club to manage, considering what a ****** their owner is, plus the goldfish bowl effect of having 55k Geordies expressing their opinions loudly and directly every home game.

That is such a good post. The hypocrisy is unbelievable. However, you need to remember that rugby is played by the UK's elite and football is played by the working man. At least we don't tolerate double standards in this country anymore!!!!!! rofl rofl rofl

Can't agree bold.

Surely a Manager has a greater responsibility than a player, for a number of reasons. For one thing, he's supposed to be setting an example to his players: how can he discipline his players for violent conduct when he's doing the same thing himself?

Second, it's not as if he was on the pitch and had some opponent in his ear, niggling, provoking and fouling him throughout the game. I watched a bit of the Spurs game v Dniepro the other evening, where a Ukrainian player was sent off for butting Vertonghen. This is by no means the first time Vertonghen has got an opponent sent off - he's already got a bad name for winding people up.

Finally, the majority of players are in their twenties, even teens - they need time to learn. Whereas as a former player himself, Pardew should have seen it all before.
 

Alan Pardew

Would be funny if the FA said because the ref has already dealt with it at the time it they cant add to the punishment.
 

Alan Pardew

i couldnt care less about pardew,but i care about his passion.......if he's any kind of man he'll take his punishment on the chin.

If that's your opinion, then you are entitled to it. If you are suggesting that we should tolerate Pardew type "emotional outbursts", then I would have to disagree with your opinion - he is the manager and as such, he should be setting some sort of example. However, he is not alone - all managers/coaching staff/players contest every decision, abuse officials and generally behave badly and it is accepted

Yes, rugby is a tough sport & fights do break out occasionally but despite this, the discipline is of a much higher standard. In addition to that the authorities of the sport take a dim view of indiscipline - the England hooker Dylan Hartley lost his place on the last Lions tour and was banned for 12 weeks for calling a referee a f**king cheat - can't see the FA ever doing that to a player

And yes, I am suggesting that footballers are soft compared to rugby players

rugby is a sometimes violent contact sport........fighting is tolerated within its rules........i was merely suggesting football might tolerate the occasional dust up the way rugby does.........i wouldnt however condone a footballer stamping on another players head.....thats taking it a wee bit too far:nono:

Rugby players are bigger as usually the fat kid who was too slow to play centre half at school so ended up having to play something else.
Props and hookers are usually overweight coppers who welcome the opportunity to be violent and call it being competitive.
Footballers are finely honed athletes, 10/15 rugby players are just huge lumps. lol

I take your point - personally, I love seeing a bit of passion but unfortunately it is more often than not accompanied by indiscipline which has become par for the course which has come to be accepted

Alan Pardew

Ghastly, obnoxious and rude individual with a fair bit of form now.
 

Alan Pardew

I reckon its nailed on he wont be in charge by the time they play their next match. Media scrutiny will make his position untenable.

He will be screwed as what club would want to employ a manager with a 10-15 game ban needing to be served (or whatever the FA impose)

his record according to the beeb

Well, apart from abusing Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini in the crudest terms earlier this season, a two-match touchline ban for pushing assistant referee Peter Kirkup during a game against Tottenham Hotspur in August 2012 and a £10,000 fine for an altercation with Arsenal's Arsene Wenger when he was manager of West Ham United in 2006. No. Not too many problems at all.
 

Alan Pardew

Seem to recall he has a suspended FA sentence still hanging over him with regards to the linesman incident

Personally I don't care for the man and trust that this will be dealt with harshly. For all the various outbursts from managers I can't recall any having such a bad reputation for misbehaving

It is the golden opportunity if Ashley wants to get rid but u believe they are it were drinking buddies
 

Alan Pardew

I've managed boys teams for 4 years and quite simply, I wouldn't be able to if I did this. No question - he should dismissed and banned from future management roles.
 

Alan Pardew

I don't think they can sack him for it now that they have officially given him just a warning.

We'll see, I think public outrage and media focus that will only attract Newcastle unwelcome, negative publicity will see them rethink and possibly reconsider. Leaving him in situ is seen to be condoning violent and thuggish behaviour - if that happened in the street he'd have been nicked and charged?

Over the top Britain.

:rolleyes:he shouldn't be 'banned' from ever being a manager. That's ridiculous!!

It was the mildest of headbutts. Its not as though he took out the referee with a right hook.

Yes fine him. Yes sack him. Yes ban him for a period of time, but seriously 'banned from future management roles' is just mental!

Unless it happened where I live, in which case a pcso would come round 3 days later to take a statement and that would be the end of that. But that's for another thread another day.

I don't agree, if you were a £1M+ a year Captain of Industry and you were seen to head butt another companies employee in a meeting you'd expect to be sacked for gross misconduct and I can't see too many other companies rushing to re employ?

Over the top? We have a very strict code of conduct - the respect campaign - so why should a very highly paid manager not have to adhere? I can absolutely promise you that 13 year old boys ape what they see on the television. There are no mitigating circumstances that I can see.

sonofabee you are saying something different to my point. I am saying surely he shouldnt be banned for ever. You are saying you cant imagine any other clubs employing him. I dont necessarily disagree with you as per my original post when I said who would want to employ someone with a large ban hanging over him.

Les yes I think its over the top because it was the mildest of headbutts. You see worse on the pitch every weekend should all those players be banned as well, because sure as eggs is eggs, 13 year old boys are more likely going to imitate them then the 'old men with grey hair'

No I'm not saying he should never be employed again, I'm saying its unacceptable behaviour that should see him sacked.
 

Alan Pardew

I guess my issue is that all of us volunteers.are very aware of our responsibilities but that doesn't seem to apply at the top of the profession. It's about time we stopped making "the pressure" the reason why.
 

Alan Pardew

A manager who shags one of his own players' wives/partners is clearly a bit of a "c u n t"*

* I feel just in using a word he himself seems to like.
 

Alan Pardew

Just seen it.

A very poor quality head butt. Bring back Boys From The Black Stuff.
