Toon Hoser Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Guardian: Alan Pardew set to leave Newcastle United for Crystal Palace • Clubs still to agree compensation package for manager • Alan Pardew played at Selhurst Park form 1987-91 • Transfer policy and fan anger cited as reasons for exit Alan Pardew is poised to become the next manager of Crystal Palace although talks are ongoing over a compensation package with Newcastle United. Pardew declined to attend a single scheduled post-match media interview after Newcastle’s 3-2 home win against Everton on Sunday, so as to avoid the need to discuss the Palace vacancy. But the manager has since made it clear to the owner Mike Ashley, currently on holiday in Barbados, that he wants to join Palace after growing frustrated at life at St James’ Park. Although he is the Premier League’s second longest serving manager at just over four years, Pardew has been severely restricted by the club’s transfer policy in recent seasons and worn down by a growing campaign by a large section of fans to get him out of the job. A deal over compensation, understood to be in the region of £2m, now looks like a formality with talks between Ashley and Palace co-chairman Steve Parish taking place on Monday afternoon. Pardew is one of the lowest paid managers in the league and Palace will at least much his salary and possibly exceed them. His arrival will probably be followed by a bid for Swansea striker Bafétimbi Gomis at around £6m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Absolutely hate how people who spout the 5th place thing don't attribute the following near relegation with him. "Didn't buy anyone", "Europe" are all bullshit excuses. If he can be admired for getting 5th then he can be criticised for a far worse season with the same team. In any case...he flucked so much in the 5th place season. Ditto. One of my Arsenal supporting friends almost, almost ruined this moment for me, by saying, I kid you not, "he's done well, you just beat Everton!" Whaaa? Do these people live in a game-by-game bubble? And haven't most Arsenal fans been calling for Wenger to be sacked? Fans of other clubs = retards. "All is forgiven Alan we've managed to be the 8th team this season to beat Everton, a truly great day!" fucking wanker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I hate the idea that we should be "careful what we wish for". We wish for a decent manager, it's not our fault if the owner cocks it up. If Southampton can have Koeman, why can't we wish for someone of equal standing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 'Pardew has been severely restricted by the club’s transfer policy in recent seasons' A policy he has openly defended time and time again. So either it's not been a restriction at all or he's an out and out liar. I bet the media don't ask that question. Our transfer policy is deeply flawed but it doesn't excuse him getting rid of talent like Ben Arfa and Yanga-Mbiwa and consistently playing shite like Gouffran, Williamson and Colback.
