Merry go round with Pardew, Magarth definitely looking at other opportunities. West Brom and Blackpool aren't good places to be either.

 

Second time Tan has dabbled in managers lives - Malky, now Solkjaer. Still a place for a kno$head like Lennon?

 

Strange game football, look at Paul Lambert..last season was looking at a P45, but now being offered a contract extension at AV.

Football speak for come and get me/

 

The phrase, "I'm very flattered by the link but I've got a job to do here" is always interpreted by the media as distancing a manager from a move, but I've always read it as "I'm interested, speak to my agent."

Has Mike Ashley had it with Pardew? Joked that tonight was win or else then said it was a joke. Can he afford to pay him off or are they really buddies?

The idiot gave him a long contract on strength of a few good results in his first few month. Will cost a fortune to buy him out. Should have sacked him after the head butt & tacken his chances at tribunal.

Still has 6 of an 8 year contract to go so, as you say cagey, it will cost Ashley a fortune to sack him, but they both could tough it out yet. He must have been unhappy last night after Fat Sally let him down as well.

Apparently, according to Màilonline, it will cost 5 million to punt him.

The rumour was (and still is) that Pardew owes Ashley mega bucks and that was why he was given such a long contract so that he could pay it back on the never never.

Yeah I heard his original appointment had something to do with Casino debts and Derek Llambalas(possibly butchered that surname).

So Pardew owes Ashley (allegedly) mega bucks, gets paid by Ashley then gives it straight back. Manages for zilch then!
