Both Reading FC and Southampton FC to this day, do not know exactly how many players' wives he shagged when he worked at those clubs. As you say, "nice bloke".
I lip read that earlier as, "Shut your noise, you ****ing old ****", which is delightful. Can't think why he seems to upset so many of his fellow managers on the sidelines, can you?
People swear. That's life in a high pressure environment with millions at stake for you. I have however heard the rumours that he does shag a lot of players wives and that was the main reason he left Southampton because he got busted and the players lost it with him. Another which I heard from a Geordie client of mine is he signed a massive contract at Newcastle as he has massive gambling debts owed essentially to Ashley. There is some deal he has going there.
I meant the other stuff. The shagging's pretty widely known, so much so that the 4th suggestion when Googling his name is "Alan Pardew Affair". Carl Fletcher's wife, gambling debts and superinjunction feature quite heavily, too. It doesn't seem that he's very popular within the game.
Pardew has gambled his wages in card games to his chairman !!?? I would worry about giving Levy ideas, but he probably plays you at poker with Tarot cards.
This is a fun game - David Pleat "Arrest", "Scandal", "Running Across Pitch" Graham Poll "Three yellow cards"
Olympiakos have announced the sacking of coach Leonardo Jardim. But they left out the real reason for his sacking!
