How many times has he been sacked now?

That's his 3rd

Bad year. Did great things at Newcastle and rightly became the only English manager to win PL Manager of the Year and League Managers Manager of the Year in the same season. Prob raised expectations far too high with his first year at Palace, that was never gonna last at a small club.

I still can't believe Newcastle gave him an 8 year contract.

Is that you Alan....???

Big Sam to Palace and Pardew back to West Ham when Bilic gets the boot.

Sacked by West Ham, Southampton and Palace. Fan protests against him at Newcastle and Charlton where he left by 'mutual consent'. That it's gone sour again is about the least surprising piece of news this year. Starts brilliantly then the wheels come off. Rinse, repeat.
The fact he's one of the least likeable people in the sport doesn't help his case regarding sympathy
Back to the championship I think unless Hull sack Phelan. Then again with his history against them I can't see hull appounting him. Sunderland obviously won't either.

Interestingly, I thought that their win over Southampton and draw away to Hull a few weeks ago would save his job until 2017. Loses against Man United and Chelsea are hardly sacking offences.

The new manager was probably in line and was happy for those two games to be over prior to appointment.

He'll want to create a good feeling so losing the first two games would be a step in the wrong direction.

He's been found out (as much as Pardew could actually be found out), you were wrong. Move on.

Checked back, he DID actually sweep the managers awards in the same season, and he did it at Newcastle, and he did take Palace to their highest EPL finish, and he was sacked by 3 clubs, and it did go bad this year.

I think that makes every single point I made...right!

Haha, 'The King' indeed...

6 wins in 36 games this year though. That table in the link is astonishing. I did laugh at Arsenal being 4th though. Pardew is a strange one. Teams can do very well under his management, but when things go tits up he has absolutely no way of changing it. Its all downhill till he leaves.

Always love a bit of humour this close to Christmas.
No doubt he'll get a new PL job and cycle will continue. He'll give them a brief boost before they begin the unstoppable slide. Fans of teams he's managed have seen it all before yet we were laughed at not too long ago for suggesting it.
Allardyce would be the perfect appointment, especially with Benteke in their ranks.

How much compo did he get?

Whatever about Pardew, his (former) boss puts him in the shade in the bellend stakes....


"club chairman Steve Parish saying Pardew's "expansive style of football hasn't worked".
"Now we're going to wind the dial back the other way," Parish told BBC Sport.

Yeah... that'll work.

• Headbutted David Meyler.
• Called Pelligrini, one of the good guys in the game, an "old cunt".
• Danced like a knobhead during the FA Cup final.
• Constant strop throwing on the sideline, eg pushing a linesman.
• His gigantic, astronomical ego. I particularly remember his smug demener in the post half interview with Newcastle after getting smacked 5-0 by Spurs, like he knew better than everyone else.

There's loads more but that'll do for now. Probably the most unlikeable character in football today, I hope this is the last we see of him.

I love the way pardew gets so much stick.
But if someone did a list like this about Jose, certain fans would lose their sh1t!!!

Jose's list is worse and he is definitely a bigger cokc than Alan.

Yeah but winning stuff covers a multitude. Ferguson was no choirboy either.

You could be right. From here http://www.irishtimes.com/sport/soccer/english-soccer/palace-appointing-sam-allardyce-may-be-far-from-popular-1.2916512 it sounds like he more or less "tapped up" Palace:

He will be instrumental in discussions with the Palace chairman, Steve Parish, when they meet on Friday to iron out the details of his contract at Selhurst Park, although with Allardyce having sent a detailed dossier to the club’s American investors Josh Harris and David Blitzer as long as six weeks ago, it seems those negotiations will be little more than a formality.

Mourihno is a great manager Pardew isn't.

Also the rumours about what Pardew did to one of his players show him to be a pretty scummy individual off the field which Mourihno doesn't appear to be.

He is supposed to have had an affair with the wife of Carl Fletcher (not the Carl Fletcher from Harchester Utd) who was one of his players at the time and then he transferred Fletcher when he found out about it.

Supposed to had an affair with Jose Fonte wife when managing Southampton

Just thinking how crazy a situation this turned out to be.

Palace paid Newcastle 2.5 million and have now had to fork out just under 5 million to get rid...

Just under 7.5 million quid they paid that chancer. I like Palace as a club but that's some batshít stuff at boardroom level.

Whats really mind boggling is it happened 3 or 4 times before! At least Ashley seemed to have the payoff part well organised.

When you take all the "he had an affair with X player's wife at Y club" stories you have to think...if he had put all that time into managing, he'd have done even better!

Or else they're to be taken with a rather large pinch of salt. Especially the one where he then axed the player, which kinda assumes the player and his wife happily accepted their fate without complaint...
