Pardew offered to resign

Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley reportedly talked Alan Pardew out of resigning as Newcastle manager.

The Magpies fell to their third Premier League defeat in six games, after a 3-2 defeat against Everton at Goodison Park.

Romelu Lukaku scored a brace, and Ross Barkley also found the net as Newcastle's defence fell apart in the first 45 minutes.

Ashley watched the first half capitulation from the stands, alongside director of football Joe Kinnear.

According to TalkSPORT, Pardew met Ashley after the game and 'offered to resign' as Newcastle manager.

However, the former Charlton and West Ham manager was given a vote of confidence by the owner, and told that his job is safe.

Pardew signed an eight-year contract extension at St James' Park last September - a deal that ties him down to the club until 2020.

Newcastle have conceded six goals in their last two Premier League games.

They travel to Cardiff City at the weekend, followed by games against Liverpool, Sunderland, Manchester City (League Cup), Chelsea and Tottenham

 

Mike.... you were meant to snap his hand off FFS!!!!!!!!

 

Unbelievable if true...big if though.

 

If true Ashley is a fat **** but I don't really believe it - Pardew knows he would never get a better job than this - its pure Jobs for the boys and I honestly don't believe he has the balls to resign.

 

Just the sheer thought of this being true kills me...

 

Out of interest is any other media outlet or journalist reporting this? No mention of it on twitter or SSN so I suspect it's horse ****.

 

I truly hope so..... but maybe they are as skeptical as we are and wouldn't want to print such a tall tale.

If this really is true I'm beyond angry.

 

Someone should tweet Mark Douglas or George Caulkin to see if there's any substance to it!

 

leave it with me.

 

A smug... but clear response from GC at the Times to my Q.

@CaulkinTheTimes Hi George- any truth in the rumour that Pards offered to resign last night? #NUFC

George Caulkin‏@CaulkinTheTimes 2m
@Albertschipshop why would a manager with a seven-year contract offer to resign?

ACS- NUFC‏@Albertschipshop 43s
@CaulkinTheTimes dunno fella hence the Q. Talksport apparently reported it. I guess your answer means you think it is inaccurate.

 

He has a point mind.
No matter what the pressure on him.... he needs to force MA's hand to get a pay off..... that's what I'd do anyway.

Hearing that there is no truth in rumour of Alan Pardew offering his resignation last night #nufc

 

You say it like they'd know Useless feckers.

Has Mike not got a twitter account? He'd know. I think Joe should have one. He could super impose his head onto the body of Joe90, and then lavish all his wise worldly musings on us. I'd get a twitter account if Joe did that. Did anyone else note his two fingered salute to the press last night?

 

Every game brings yet another 'Pardew Out' rumour. I reckon Joe Kinnear offered Pards' resignation for him. The fact that Pardew didnt know about it meant Mike couldn't accept it.

 

I think Caulkin is pretty reliable to be fair. Lee Ryder on the other hand is a different matter.

 

Cheers ACS

 

I have yet to come across a reliable journo to be honest. They couldn't lie straight in bed.

 

Lock this thread and remove the link. You're only helping NufcFans' abbhorent Umar make money from his rehash of Talksport's fabricated nonsense - and I can't even find that.

 

Follow the red bars, they'll lead you there.
