That's one of the problems with sacking him. Any replacement would expect a Premier League salary.
If that's true, I can't see him ever getting sacked tbh. Would anyone else come in on that kind of money?
*cough*
I'd like to think you're right mate but I just don't see Pardew going. I'm a big fan of Adkins and have heard very good things about him (going back to his Scunny days). Would have him here in a second.
