Is it me or is the author having a dig at him in that piece? He's right but it's an odd tone in the article. As for Pardew he's as moronic and ridiculous as usual

 

Its so bad its almost as if sportsdirectnews want us to dislike Pardew. I wonder why they would want that?

He makes a fair point, like. Takes balls of steel to whore the club around for £80m all summer/autumn to small-time telecommunications entrepreneurs then spend a massive £5m in January to secure promotion to the PL.

Yet another exclusive for our red and blue overlords.

Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew has told SportsDirect News that Joe Kinnear is acting as a ‘transfer co-ordinator’ after the 66-year-old returned to the club earlier this summer.

 

Kinnear, who managed the Toon between September 2008 and February 2009 before ending his tenure due to health problems, was appointed as the Magpies’ director of football in June this year.

 

After his appointment there were suggestions that Kinnear had been brought in by owner Mike Ashley as a move to take control away from Pardew, but the Newcastle boss has since welcomed his arrival.

 

Pardew has now revealed Kinnear is currently acting as a ‘co-ordinator’ of transfers, and is helping him juggle the responsibilites that come with being a modern-day manager.

 

Talking exclusively to SportsDirect News, he said: “It’s quite simple really, it’s not too different to what we had before with Derek Llambias [who resigned as managing director in June]. Mike [Ashley] and Joe [Kinnear] work the finances of the football club.

 

“Therefore I have to make sure, with Joe, that we’re approaching players in the right financial bracket for us and that we’re doing the right amount of scouting.

 

“Joe’s job is to co-ordinate that and put it all together. So he has my input, he has [chief scout] Graham Carr’s views and also Mike’s opinion as well in terms of the finance.

 

“Basically, he gives me a ballpark figure of the sort of player we can perhaps afford and me and Graham give him the targets we think it works for. Joe then works towards finding a solution and it’s as simple as that.

 

“There’s a lot of mediating between the owner, agents, and the owner of the other football club that needs to be done and, in truth, it’s difficult for the manager to find the time for it because there’s the media responsibilities, the team and with my staff I’m managing about 50 people at this training ground.

 

“It’s not easy and transfers, particularly what we’re trying to do in finding a striker, is possibly one of the hardest things to do in terms of co-ordination and time and we want to get someone in before the start of the season but, then again, we might not.”
