Caught in the act!
Pardew was immediately sent to the stands by match referee Martin Atkinson where he had to sit and watch the the rest of the game whilst trying to communicate to his bench.
Now I’m all for a manager showing passion and “kicking every ball” with his team, but there is a line that shouldn’t be crossed and, unfortunately, Pardew has crossed it and it was only going to be a matter of time before the FA called him up for a hearing.
Of course Pardew was apologetic in the aftermath of the game but I get the sense that he was trying to diffuse the situation prior to a charge being presented by the FA. I think he knew he crossed the line and was trying to make light of the situation which, to be fair, was comical even if it was rule breaking. I mean, watch the video below and see if you think it was a really violent push.
Having said that, rules are rules, and whilst the push isn’t exactly of the same scale as those dished out by Paulo Di Canio and David Prutton in years gone by and earned them an 11 and 10 game ban respectively, you can’t tell players not to raise their hands and expect managers to get away with the same thing. Think Jose Reina v James Perch from last season…
I think a touchline ban will be in order along with a hefty fine although I wouldn’t want to speculate on the level of either. Suffice to say that I wouldn’t be surprised if the book was thrown at us as we, and Alan Pardew, aren’t part of the “clique” that seem to be on the end of more lenient punishments.
Luckily we have a professional squad with an assistant manager who can carry out a game plan dictated to him in the shape of John Carver so I’m not overly concerned about not having the gaffer in the technical area for just a few games.
I guess we will soon find out what happens anyway…

imo 3game ban and fine,just because the press havent made a big deal out of it
Play nicely on this one guys
TOONSY ime always a nice guy wor lass says
heart owt about the marv carry on,maybe thats why pardew was in bad fettle and took it out on linesman 
Funny enough when I seen it it reminded me of the last England manager “that I can’t even remember his name
” when he do the samething to Physco Stu as if to say did you see that.
I do think he will get about 6 games simple because they want to make an example of him
Yeah, kinda already said what I thought in regards to this. I’m not too surprised, but I’d hope the F.A don’t take the piss in regards to punishment, 3 matches at the most. Hope we can get some working headphones and the like ready
Must admit that I thought the apology was genuine rather than a cynical attempt to reduce the punishment. Personally think was a storm in a teacup and needs more of slap on the wrist 3 match ban and a few grand fine. I have seen others in the media saying that because he is a manager he should receive a stronger punishment than players so in excess of 11 matches and tens of thousands of pounds fine. However, the intent that De Canio showed was completely absent in this incident so I don’t see the comparison. I expect him to accept the ban gracefully.
If Pards gets done, AVB should get done for coming out of his technical area and obscuring the lino’s view. You talk about goal line technology, but a wrong decision by a lino could cost a match, and manager’s should stay in their area under the threat of a sending off.
DAVE on last thread i was talking about mesel not the car,sorry to hear about the car,i put my car in every 3 yrs dont do that mot pish
Also, didn’t Clark Carsilsle or whoever the hell he is promise to clamp down on cheating in the EPL? In that case I would like to see Gareth Bale banned for quite clearly cheating when the ball had crossed the line, and AVB for tolerating or indeed encouraging such behaviour.
Thanks
It was nothing more than frustration as a of the abysmal decision of the linesman.
No more than a 3 match ban for the linesman and a slap on the back for Pards.
I thought that it was out of order by pards us he should humbly accept the ban he gets. Anymore than five games is ridiculous though.
@10
@andymag
Do you really believe he’ll get more than a one match ban?
I don’t. It seemed petty.
I think it’s disgraceful.
), who could’ve ruled the build up play for our second goal out for a wrongly called offside incident before Barfa won the penalty.
He could have dislocated his collarbone with antics like that.
Not to mention the fact they would’ve had to bring on a different linesman, with even worse eyesight than Mr Bart (sounds like fart
Just imagine the potential consequences……..
Yeah, joking aside, rules are rules, and if the FA start getting all pissy over what degree of force constitutes a push on an official, then it’s gona get messy.
A push is a push. Pardew deserves a touchline ban. I just hope they don’t try and make an example of him and give him a ludicrously large one.
I think Wenger got a one match ban and an £8000 fine for the same offence 1 or 2 years ago so really you would think he would get something similar – this however is NUFC so expect his bollocks being publically cut off with Gordon Taylor holding them.
Not to change the subject but cos its not raring with banter, which surprises me, cos I always get the impression no one can get on for me, what was the craic with Marveaux?
Has he done a flit or was it rumour?
Sadly the FA probably have their collective knickers in a knot over the fact everyone is singing the praises of team GB and all the sporting behaviour around the olympics.That said they will want to be seen to encourage good wholesome sporting behaviour and isn’t football made up of good honest pros who never cheat bullcrap and promptly make an example out of Pards
.Talk about bad timing . 
Toffee men giving it a right good go v manure.
Just been watching Voetbal international and they have said Douglas will be playing his last game for FC Twente this coming Sunday . He has to play to be Eligable for THE Dutch national team because Sunday is exactly 5 years that he has played in Holland he already has his Dutch passport . Their is only 2 teams in for him us and Fulham too cut a long story short the club that offers FC Twente and the player the most money gets him . I think we will know next monday if he is coming or not .
Everton 1.0 up Felliani and it’s been coming toffees look good.
Axel, I reckon Fulham will offer more cash both in fee and wages.
AXEL cheers mate for up-date
KIM a lot dont like moyes but i think hes done a top job over the years cannot understand how hes stuck it there so long,gave us a seeing too last season with nothing to play for imo
Troy@16 just by the mere fact that everything is so quiet coming from the club, I reckon that something is up.
Saw him pretty close up in Landsberg a few weeks ago and he seemed to have a bit of a bee in his bonnet. He seems to have a bit of edge about him.
RVP on for Welbeck now, be gutted for the Toffees if he scores as they are wellworth their lead.
I’d like that if the Toffee’s cuffed Manure …
Ice ,they are a good side got some great players ,really rate Baines and Fellani like.
@MM
Has there been any announcement at all ? In the papers or news?
I’ve been at work all weekend so missed the papers etc though nowt was said in the chronicle tonight.
Like us they ain’t made up of mega stars and try to live within their means but got bags of team spirit.Wouldn’t mind that Jellyman at the Toon too.
Troy , me and thee seem to be the only ones question things at the mo. There were some blog posts on here pre-game on Saturday. There doesn’t seem to have been anything mentioned at all in the press. Funny innit ?
Troy ,Someone said on a site somewhere ,could of been here ,forget now.Anyway they now one of the security guards who said once Marv knew he wasn’t even on the bench ,just left the ground. Odd that he didn’t even consider watching his colleagues if true.
Ice @ 8 that must be some list when they mot you
Troy, I ain’t heard anything about Marveaux but must admit I am curious.
I reckon it’s fairly innocuous, and on hearing he wasn’t playing, he just sped off with Scooby in his Mystery Machine to pull the plug on an evil fairground owner somewhere in the Black Country. After all, it must be difficult juggling two jobs; being an International ghostbuster for Mystery Incorporated AND a Premier League footballer.
That would make sense to me anyway.
…off topic and back on again, but not quite.
Kinel, Man U well need Tiote!
Paul Scholes is a fucking liability and ain’t got goals in him any more.
@31 Know*
Everton is an honest club. They deserve a lot of credit for maitaining a top 7-9 side year after year with minimal outlay. They don’t hoof it about either
KIMTOON that was my first thoughts too ,but it seems the player is hell bent on playing for the Netherlands or else he would of moved already . We have in our favour that we are a bigger club and much more in the limelight than Fulham . That would help the player in terms of being in the mix for selection for his national team . No disrespect too Fulham but that is the way it works .
Axel don’t Fulham have a cloggy manager ?
ICE DOG your welcome m8 ,i will all ways try to post any sort of news from over here .
jOL; WILL PUT A CANNY SIDE TOGETHER AT fULHAM::::
Rod,Scholes , great pro but if he lives a thousand years he’ll never ever be able to tackle .
MUNICH MAG yeah they do Martin Jol but this lad is a born Brazilian and has only lived and played in Holland for 5 years . I dont think that will influence his move . Money and the chance to play for Holland will .
DAVE like a check every 12mths old habits die hard
£160 this yr greedy gits 
did dede play this week-end?or did you take him chaseing that little ball with a stick.
can see moyes at m/u now that red nose is saying only two more seasons now,might be one if he doesnt win it this yr
Forgot about the Martin Jol factor
that may just swing it then.
Axel-unless he really likes london…
Kim
If he lives a thousand years Man U will still be playing him
Ice, I could see Moyes at ManU, but I think that’s the job that Mourinho really wants….
MDS @35 aye dead reet there mate
wonder if there fans kick off when he has to sell one of there better player every yr to buy
http://www.vi.nl/nieuws/226479/Douglas-na-treffen-met-NEC-naar-Fulham-of-Newcastle.htm
MDS
Nah, he’s waiting for his chance to manage the toon and fulfill the promise he made to Wor bobby, to win us the league.
I know its in dutch but basilcy say what i earlier posted and what was told in their tv program .
AXEL there you go english
http://www.nufcfans.co.uk/chairman-confirms-newcastle-and-fulham-interested-in-defender/?
Kim/Andy, re. 1000 years, I heard Paul Scholes is a vampire and is already (unofficially) 427 years old.
That would explain to me why he’s only ever been based in the North of England, as direct sunlight would most certainly instigate his smokey demise.
Andy @45
…congratulations on yer exam results Andy BTW.
ICEDOG you should be a translator m8
Rod @53 And there was me thinking he was pale cause he’s a ginger
.
If the Toffeemen keep that up they will be top 6 no probs ,really impressive tonight and a far better outfit than their neighbours.
Kim, I almost chucked the ginger card in there, but thought the vampiric reference would suffice.
KIM @57 same as jay jay only a lot taller than him
…not wanting to offend our flame-haired bretheren.
Gingers make the world go around.
Reeee-spect.
Rod &Ice ,I can say what I want about gingers being one meself
There’s only 15% of us left on the planet ya know.
Axel – Fulham may have Martin Jol but we have Dutch internationals in Tim Krul and Vurnon Anita who would put good words in for Douglas. Plus and probably more importantly, Pardew and Douglas have alot in common … They both like starting on football officials!!
Honestly though, I hate the fact that I am more nervous about loosing players than excited about us signing players. I really pray that the board prove me wrong – but the sooner this pissing window slams shut the better!!!
…how’s this for irony.
I just cut my finger, and in the process of cutting an elastoplast strip off a roll, managed to cut a nik through another finger with the scissors.
…oh how I laughed
…two cuts or the price of one.
Uncle Fatty would LOVE that.
….just as well Paul Scholes wasn’t in my house, or he’d be on it like flies roond shite!
SHARPY17 i get where your coming from but i don’t think any of our players will leave .
Cheers Rodz
, and I think your in to something about scholes 
Rodz your a cut above
Whats this talk about gingers
SHARPY dont worry you will get a break till jan
Kim@62, that would explain your feistiness
ROD those plasters dont come cheap noo-a days
I like the feeling of knowing we’re ahead of man u in the table
. Although I’ll give credit to Everton for a superb showing tonight I felt they were helped massively by Man U failing to hit the target countless times and defending with a CM and a winger, most teams in the league would’ve beaten man u like that.
HEZ @15
‘I think Wenger got a one match ban and an £8000 fine for the same offence 1 or 2 years ago’
Well this being Newcastle then I expect him to get a 3 game ban and £20,000 fine from the FA.
…I can remember being told as a kid that ginger people have quick tempers. I only have one ginger mate these days, and he’s a proper radgie!
…I guess the amount of stick you get throughout school moulds your personality into being naturally defensive.
…is Shane Ferguson naturally defensive though
I see him as more of an attacking player.
I’d love to see him get a few games for us this season.
He’s a winger for me like. Too much of a short-arse to cut it as a full-back in the PL.
…and yes, before the height police butt in. I don’t think he has the build to be a proficient FB.
DJG
that’ll be the day
It’s funny you should say that as I was reading an article about it and arsenal fans were commenting that Pardew will be let of easily cus hes a press favourite and the press hate arsenal
Rodz he looks good on the wing for us (Norn Iron ) and scored a nice goal last week
ROD are you saying baines and cole ect are heavyweights then
3 match ban should be given. FA keep their big honcho rep. Pardew isn’t made an example of and give a 20 year ban and the papers get to slag off the toon. Everyones a winner.
Shane also has pace to burn as I remember the Bolton home match (the one with Hatem’s goal where I was actually there
) when he was subbed on in the last 20 min he was all over the place and when a Bolton defender passed it back to the keeper from the half way line Shane was after it like a rocket, everyone around us(us included) where on our feet, the keeper shat it and just managed to run out and clear it. The crowd cheered for him afterwards though which would’ve done him a world of good.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2010/sep/20/arsene-wenger-fa-charge1
It was Atkinson who was the official that Wenger pushed. So maybe that is why he was so quick to send Pardew off when he was referee??
Anyway, it says, “Under the FA’s new fast-track procedures, Wenger has until Thursday, 23 September to respond to the charge.”
Should Arsenal accept the punishment, their manager will be banned for one game and receive an £8,000 fine.”
So he will miss one game, big deal.
Axel – I so hope you’re right mate. I know every player has their price but with Pardew saying we don’t have to sell to buy – I’d be ‘f-ing’ gutted!!
Ice – I don’t even want to think about Jan!!
Ginger Dave, aye, I know mate. He’s one of these FB players who look great going forward, but not quite as good at defending.
…be interesting to see how he fares this season. I think brick-shithouse FBs are few and far between these days. A good quality full back defender who can also get forward and score goals is like rocking horse shit. It tends to be one or the other these days.
Ivanovic is the lad for me. Good at both.
I wonder is Dekka and Mike will give Pardew £8,000 out of the craps budget; or make him pay it out of his own wages. I wouldn’t be suprised if they make him pay it.
Ice@79, not at all mate, but it’s a ‘build’ thing for me rather than height, and I’m sure confidence also comes into it. You can only get the latter through playing regularly, and young Fergie hasn’t been given the time of day. Baines got snapped up at just the right time from Wigan, and his manager utilised him in every game since, mainly because they’re so cost efficient at Everton
He’s a barrel anyway, his heed is 2ft wide, and he reminds me of Ram-Man from the He-Man cartoons. He’s still not my ideal full-back though.
That would be Susan Boyle of Barcelona.
Rod@72 It don’t help with my grandparents being Scottish and Irish either
I’m English born and bred but a very mixed up individual to be fair.
I did used to be very quick tempered but my lad taught me the art of patience and very little riles me nowadays ,not in the true sense anyway, still get miffed at Jabba tho.
Kim
You had a lot of patience to not hit the soton boy
andy@88 God yeah
Was away earlier playing in the senior club championship for my local tennis club(first year I’ve been able to play the seniors) was beaten but was well amusing seeing one of the best players at the club being beaten(I was winning at one point) by a teenager, he was well annoyed if he hadn’t won in the end I’m pretty sure he would’ve killed me
.
right that’s me away ,tired now.
Kim, I have Scottish ancestry myself, but I doubt that’s too unusual for Geordies. I’m clan Robertson (although that isn’t my surname).
I personally like to believe my ancestry relates to the original Viking Beserkers who stormed McDonalds in Lindisfarne, around
the 8th century.
Andy ,carefull he may of clubbed you to death and hid you in the bunker.
right really off now ,nite.
Im off too, school the morrow.
From the beeb:
‘However, it is believed he will accept the FA’s decision and is likely to receive a two-game touchline ban.’
That’s disgraceful Dubs (wingless penguin attempting 2 second flight within a harsh environment), I’d give him at least 3
…fair enough with the artistic license, but one wing ain’t gona fly a rocket.
…don’t even know what that means; in retrospect.
…well, if you haven’t seen it already, you’re either gay or an illegal immigrant.
My guess is both.

massive bunch of gays on here like.
(the term ‘gay’ was used indiscriminately to protect the gays)
…bent as a nine bob note me like.
But that’s another story.
morning Ms Rod
….Stuart79, the clutch of baby ‘Stardustians have hatched, I hope you have your clan ready…
I still say Fatty is a cheeky cunt anyway.
…why good evening Mrs Oswaldo
Rodz, you asked me to refer to you as Ms Rod from now on after you called me a sexist pig a few weeks back
…aye alreet then, seems to make sense.
…sorry Oswaldo, just ignore me, I swear like a cunt therefore I am.
I’,m the Commander of Time, in my Vessel of Cod…………..
….
..why does everyone else go to bed when I want to talk shit
…my nurse just told me I heard them say that in my head, so it shouldn’t count.
Agreed Nursey.
Thee knows thi scoo-er.
..yeah whatever
I’m here Rodz, lurking in the ether
On topic – Pardz should be banned for his touchline antics. I know emotions were running high but it is no excuse… As incompetent as some officials are, they should be safe from physical contact…Verbal abuse, well that is a different matter…
…I agree Oswaldo.
If you call them a cunt first then push them, it’s faif dinkum in my book
…anyone gorenny crisps?
…what ye hev for brekfist Oswaldo?
….legitmitli inresdid like

…hahaha, watch it again, he actually says “don’t push me”
…I’d rather he took it on a Dr David Banner tip though
I like the Terminator; and I like the Hulk.
Both ponces though.
ahl mooth, nee troosaz
The lines man apparently was listening to this on his ipod after the game
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4o8TeqKhgY
…he don’t do white lines
…the mere mention of Grandmaster Flash should be enough to strike fear into mere mortals these days,
…what the fuck is the world coming to?
…massive bunch of ginger gays and lezzers.
Alan Pardew’s got a massive cock anyway, so at least that’s settled.
…bedtime for bullshitters,
nighty nite Rodz
This song here sums up yesterday perfectly
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Wl_uQOABxg
Stardust, I’m not going continue any arguement on this blog with you. Its selfish and has gone far beyond football discussions, you are now just littering… If you want to continue you can message me on Facebook “Jarrod ‘Jabulani’ Cross. I’m more than willing to “discuss” the matter further…
For me, Pardews ban should be two games at most with a fine…
It really was nothing to me… but that could just be because I lack class
If they are going to ban a manager it should be from the stadium in question, not just the touchline
What a waste of time a ban is, if the manager can just sit in the stand and still call the shots by CB radio or Morse code 
Actually Aussie, thats true. It is kinda of pointless.
Even if he was banned from the stadium he could still watch it on telly. And if the game isn’t live in UK he could fly to Australia and watch it here and skype his instructions to the dugout
You could impose a house arrest and cut all communication links on match day, but that might be just a tad harsh.
Pardz might be able to send smoke signals…. from the back yard of his house tho Vegas
to me it was just a hay did you see that or are you blind shove , and on the marv thing i reckon he stormed of because he didnt make the subs bench
WOW! I CAN’T BELIEVE HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE BLOGGING THIS MORNING. AFTER ALL THE COMPLAINTS THAT I GET ABOUT ME BLOGGING TOO MUCH AND OTHERS NOT BEING ABLE TO GET ON, I WAS EXPECTING IT TO BE CHOKKA.
THE THING IS, I KNEW THAT IT WOULD BE QUIET THO, AS IT NORMALLY IS UNLESS I START A DEBATE.
THOSE WITH NO ABILITY TO POST BUT ONLY WHINGE, HANG YOUR HEADS IN SHAME.
