Pardew

Wouldnt be at all surprised if Mike Ashley is having a long chat with the company lawyers to see if this is gross misconduct and gives him a cheap exit route from the ludicrous 7 year contact he gave Pardew
 
How can Pardew discipline one of his players when he has this as an example of his own behaviour? Certainly won't garner much respect...

Do you seriously thinks its acceptable for the manager of a football club to do that???

It looks to me like its a bit of handbags on the touchline between the player and manager. Thats it.

Heat of the moment stuff that happens a lot in sport.

Some people wanting him sacked because of this incident is pathetic really.

Howard Webb was the 4th official today, I'm sure on his recent reffing performances he see's no issue here....

Cant believe the reaction to this tbh. Yeah he has been a knob but a 3 game ban max.

Sacking the bloke is utter nonsense. Do players get sacked when they get sent off? Too many people living by sky sports news imo.

His worst crime is not headbutting Steve bruce instead but i suppose we have to let the FA deal with that :D

It was hardly a headbutt though was it?

Did you watch the spurs game other night , look like nothing till you saw it from another angle , you could see Vertogen head move , what ban will that guy get , Pardew`s conductor is un becoming of a manager , wait and see
 
I have to agree that it wasn't a proper headbutt or anything close however as a manager of a premiership team you need to have a bit more class and not get involved especially not by pushing your head into someone elses.

As for the FA the whole game of soccer is full of jessies.

Yes it was handbags and it may have been heat of the moment but it was a head butt, a weak one, but a head butt all the same.

The issue, myself and I know a lot of others, have with it is that he is the manager, he is supposed to lead by example, what the hell was he thinking of? How can he now discipline the players?

The FA will no doubt make an example of him as he has got a lot of previous, as shown of MOTD, when manager of West Ham he had a verbal go at Wenger, then as Newcastle manager he did the same to Martin O'Neill, pushed a linesman, swore at Pelligrini and now his pise de résistance he head butts an opposition player.

He said he would learn by the errors of his ways, which he quite blatantly has not, to the outside observer he has anger issues.

The 100k fine he has been given by Newcastle is, given where we are at in the season probably the best option, at the very least it leaves the status quo as it is, but whether he lives comes the close season is anyone's guess.
 
Pathetic effort!

I'm sure the fine for head-butting was only 20k. The other 80k was for the abysmal quality! :whistle:

Clearly not in my opinion but im not the idiot sat behind a desk who will decide this sadly.

The uproar of this is just pathetic. If thats a headbutt the game has gone and we should all wear protective padding to leave the house.

Idiotic yes, violent :rofl: dont make me laugh
 
If this was a player, the uproar would be over by MOTD2.

Yes he should set an example, but (and it's a big butt;))he is being disciplined and fined, so why can't he then discipline anyone else. Do you have to be Mother Teresa to give other footballers fines these days?

The pundits all saying he wasn't provoked - yes he was, Meyler pushed him for no real reason. I'd have been doing the same to Meyler if I'd have been on the touchline as well.

Sacking is an over reaction, but Pardew does need to cool his loach.

it was a heated incident that stemmed from maylar shoving him out the way.
what pardew did was very silly, more silly that biting a fellow pro? spitting on an opponent?
we see this type of incident in the game a lot at present some get punished others dont boy sent off against spurs on Thursday but shelvey on debouchy earlier in season the fa said was no case ti answer.
I know pardew is a manager and should know better and realistically he should get punished.
calls for him to be sacked etx are ridiculous imo if he does it again then maybe but it was handbags nowt more.
does anyone who seen the incident think maylar should have walked? raised hands against an opponent, letter of the law says u cant do that.

I have seen it and Mylar did not do anything Pardew was in his line of run that's all a total accident. The reaction from Pardew was a disgrace if that was a fan like you or me you would be in court for assault and banned from every ground in the country . He has previous and I don't think he will get away with it this time .Mind you the FA do have a poor record of fudging things like this and Pardew might get a medal off them for hurt feelings . How can he tell his players to behave when he has the worst dissaplinary record in the squad. He should be sacked and banned for a long time. £100,000 fine is buttons to people who earn the sums these people earn the only way to punish multi millionaires is to ban them. The worst thing is they were winning and god knows what he would do if they were losing.
