Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew will serve a seven-match suspension with immediate effect, subject to any appeal, after he admitted an FA misconduct charge.

An Independent Regulatory Commission today [Tuesday 11 March 2014] ruled the first three-matches imposed are a stadium ban with the remaining four a touchline ban.

Not as bad as it could have been. I was thinking it'd be anywhere from 5-10 games so for it to be seven games and only three being stadium bans I think it's fair-ish.

Hopefully it's lesson learnt for Pardew and time to move on IMO. We can still have a cracking little end to the season.

 

Better than I expected.

 

Let's see how our team does without Pards half time team talks.

 

Cop out by FA considering Pardew's previous behaviour. For me stadium ban for all 7 matches.

 

Don't think it'll have too much of an adverse affect.

 

Still think Myler should have had some punishment he did push our manager first.

 

me too, but then again he did contribute to the warm glow that has hit parts of the North East this week

 

It's being classed as "assault" on the Sunderland board

 

Sorry I dont get that?

 

Can't see that.

As a first offence it would be probably a 3 - 5 match touchline ban. Given his previous it had to be more stringent than that. Seems pretty sensible to me.

 

he knocked sunderland out of the cup

 

Not that bad for Pards - I thought he would get banned for the rest of the season.

 

£60k fine as well, home matches they could run a tv feed and phone line across to the Strawberry for him, have to be careful he doesn't get barred.

 

Sadly he is still our manager

 

Probably a bit better.

 

Can't be worse

 

Could have been worse. A little over the top but we move on.

Despite comments to the contrary, pretty bad news in my opinion. You need your manager on the sidelines and Pards has done a good job. I can name plenty of games where he has provoked a positive response. By and large though, a lot of that is down to the mentality of the players you have. They are on the pitch. When we are 2-0 up in games and then come out sloppy, I doubt very much Pards has said much more than "same again lads". As usual I think the players just get a free ride and its easier to kick the Pardew cat. They have worked all week on a game plan, it then works, they then fail to replicate it.

 

Not lenient at all. Merely a sop to media hysteria.
