News about Alan Pardew

Matches have been so bonkers that it would be impossible to recall where you were when the craziness began to unfold for our viewing pleasure. Manchester United's snatched defeat from the jaws of victory on Thursday, allowing Chelsea's Cole Palmer to score twice in the dying seconds of stoppage time. Mail Sport gathered our top maddest games from the Premier League's recent return to action.

Alan Pardew is concerned that Jude Bellingham will meet the same fate as David Beckham at the 1998 World Cup this summer. The 20-year-old has had a fruitful debut season with Real Madrid, where he has seen him rise as the LaLiga's top scorer and Most Valuable Player. As Carlo Ancelotti's side remains eight points ahead of the league and harbours aspirations of winning their 15th Champions League title.

AHEAD OF THE GOAL: In the middle of the criticism that they have received for allowing Nike to change the St George's Cross on England's new home kit, the FA will continue to enforce their ban on carrying national flags to Wembley other than those of the competing teams. On Saturday evening, police and stewards were told not to confiscate any flags or symbols that represent countries other than England or Brazil. Following the Hamas terrorist attacks and the resulting increase of violence in Gaza last October, the ban was introduced before England's match against Australia last October, with the FA aware of the need to minimize potential flashpoints between pro-Israel and pro-Palestine groups.

INTERNATIVE BY MATT HUGHES: Emma Hayes is running for president of the League Managers Association in what could be a historic move for the company. Chelsea manager Hope Powell, a fellow female trailblazer, is also on the ballot, as well as ex-Premier League bosses Martin O'Neill and Alan Pardew. Howard Wilkinson's resigning as LMA chair, triggering the election earlier this month.

Newcastle finished fifth in the top flight in 2012, just three years after being relegated from the Premier League, securing a return to European football. It was a huge success for the club, who had been floundering under new owner Mike Ashley for years, but backing it up was always going to be difficult with such a small roster. Alan Pardew, the head of Magpies, needed to dip into the transfer market to expand his team, and Newcastle chose a French Revolution with the assistance of chief scout Graham Carr - the father of comedian Alan Carr.

After a touchline brawl between winger Leroy Sane and opposition boss Nenad Bjelica, Bayern Munich's clash with Union Berlin descended into chaos on Wednesday night. With a 1-0 victory, the reigning German champions closed the gap to Bayer Leverkusen at the top of the table to four points. However, the match between Sane and Bjelica took center stage due to the fact that players and coaches were not involved in a flare-up.

Chelsea's 4-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur had just about everything you could want from a football match. Six goals were blocked out, five goals were scored, two red cards, seven yellow cards, and a team was tasked with nine men and leaving plenty of gaps in behind, with six men on the field and leaving plenty of holes open. It was an end to an epic for the neutrals, and it should rank as one of the most bonkers games in the English top flight.

For the first time in history, Manchester City threwsted the Champions League trophy into the air for the first time in history, but the competition has slowed back down again, with the group stage set to begin next month. The very best clubs in European football will eagerly await the outcome of the draw in Monaco on Thursday evening, with the glitz and glam of the occasion's glitter firing the starting pistol at the final.

Mail Sport has the inside scoop on all of the participants in the tournament, which will begin at 5 p.m. UK time, as well as the identification of their key players and danger ratings.

Alan Pardew has reflected on his 'difficult' time at West Brom, as well as focusing on the incident where four of his players were accused of stealing a taxi. Pardew was hired by the Baggies in November 2017, but he lasted just over four months at the club before being suspended after eight straight Premier League losses. Four West Brom players were quizzed by Spanish police after being accused of stealing a taxi during a boozy night out in Barcelona during a season where they were actually the most memorable event off the track.

ADEM PATEL: The Newcastle supporters erupted in unison, shouting and clapping in the corner of the stadium long after the final whistle had passed. Every one of them has expressed admiration for one another. In recognition of the time they were all living in, they were all living in this manner.

KIERAN GILL: An hour in Roy Hodgson's company yesterday, a 75-year-old man wasn't ready for retirement, but rather a 'footballaholic' determined to keep Crystal Palace from relegation doom. Hodgson returned to the club he had previously played for for the first time since being back to the team he had previously played for. About what his footballing friends are making of it all: 'I think if Sir Alex Ferguson were to text me he would be saying, "What are you doing, you fool?"' 'There's a load of books in his old corner office, but I suspect they came from Alan Pardew.' He might miss them one day.'

BY KIERAN GILL, an exclusive, on May 13, 2006. From the moment he left Cardiff's Millennium Stadium to his arrival in London, his agent-dad Angel had boarded the West Ham bus to give him a shoulder for the arduous ride. Scaloni was angry for West Ham's 2006 FA Cup final loss to Liverpool. Before Steven Gerrard scored that goal, he had given the ball away. This would not have happened as a result of a 90-minute clock strike, unless he shanked a clearance.' His old boss and his coworkers' thoughts are still raw in the psyche's minds. Alan Pardew, who moved him to West Ham on a six-month loan from Deportivo La Coruna, says he'never forgive' Scaloni. Dean Ashton says he only needed to 'put it into the stands,', while Jimmy Walker has said, "that damn Lionel cost us a winner's medal."

After revealing what was said in a dressing room brawl between former footballer Allan Nyom and ex-boss Alan Pardew, Ben Foster has sluggish about the team's time in West Brom. The former Manchester United goalkeeper is spilling the beans on some of his former colleagues after retiring from football and launching the 'Fozcast' podcast.

MARTIN SAMUEL CHIEF SPORTS WRITER: This year is 1896. That was when Crawley Town was established. Makes them older than Chelsea, Portsmouth, Norwich, even Leeds. They were Crawley FC back in 1958 - the West Sussex Football League's first members, who did not include Brighton because they did not come along for another five years in 1901. So, a respectable, historic club, even though Crawley did not join the Football League until 2011. The county champions had won the Southern League and the Southern League Cup by then, and they had enjoyed an FA Cup run against Manchester United in the last 16.

Evangelos Marinakis is still spending on his football empire this summer after spending more than £150 million on revamping Nottingham Forest's first team this summer. When James Rodriguez signed from Olympiacos this week, it was their 14th signing of the summer, and there are more to come. Sound familiar? That's because media mogul and ship owner Marinakis owns Olympiacos and Forest, who made 22 additions of their own in the last window.

The English boss, 61, has joined the Super League Greece in place of former Atletico Madrid caretaker manager German Burgos, and is expected to take responsibility of his first game in Greece against Olimpiacos on Sunday. Pardew is now in his tenth role in charge of ten different clubs in a career that began in 1998, just three months after leaving Bulgaria's CSKA Sofia, where he also served as technical director. On Twitter, Aris shared the news: 'WELCOME TO #ARISFAMILY COACH,' as well as photos of Pardew signing his deal.

CARA SLOMAN: He's one of them. Ward is the longest active player at Palace. He has been there for more than a decade. No one has soaked in the glories of promotion and has followed every step along the way. Even Wilfried Zaha joined Manchester United for a while. He's seen the club change and expand, becoming Patrick Vieira's 10th permanent manager. Ian Holloway and Neil Warnock, Alan Pardew and Roy Hodgson, and now under Vieira, they've all developed a new identity and style of play. And yet, though much has changed, what matters is what hasn't changed.

After a bloodless 3-3 draw with Manchester City on Sunday, Alan Shearer has praised Newcastle, who believes they will be the 'best of the rest' this season. Eddie Howe's team pushed the Premier League champions all the way at St James' Park on Sunday, leading 3-1 until City fought back in the second half to divide the spoils. Eddie Howe's team currently sits fifth in fifth place after their first three games, putting the former Bournemouth chief's record of 14 victories and 49 points from 30 Premier League games since taking over in November.
