Newcastle: 5 Reasons Why Alan Pardew Will Be Sacked In November

1. On-Goings Behind The Scenes

To many observers, it would seem as though owner Mike Ashley no longer wants Alan Pardew at the club. The bizarre appointment of former Toon boss Joe Kinnear as director of football would seem to underline this, with Pardew essentially being stripped of his abilities to bring in new signings over the summer months. You have to wonder if Ashley, who once memorably handed Pardew a mammoth eight-year-deal, has the same levels of faith in the coach as he once did, because it would seem he has tried to undermine him in recent times. There are some who say Kinnear was put in place to one day usurp Pardew as manager, something of which has been strenuously denied by the latter, but you can't help but ask how much longer the Englishman can survive in this environment. Do you think Alan Pardew will become the next managerial casualty of the Premier League or should he be given more time? Let us know in the comment section, below.
