just spoken to my mate. he and charnley were at a football tournament near Berwick with their kids.
charnley and pardew both taken aback by the hostility on saturday. they never expected it to be that bad. charnley mentioned how it was even worse than last season when we were in a relegation fight!
he still doesn't get it though, kept saying how we'd finished ninth!
pardew really has taken it badly, badly shaken. though no indication of any thoughts of a resignation.
told my mate about the behaviour of the stewards on sataurday and about that "headlock" photo. made him promise to mention it to charley when he next saw him. he wont discuss on the pitch stuff though.
