Toon Future In Pardew's Hands - EIGHT YEAR DEAL!

Last updated : 27 September 2012 By Footy Mad - Editor

Newcastle owner Mike Ashley today placed the future of Newcastle United Football Club firmly in the hands of manager Alan Pardew when he handed him a staggering eight-year contract.

Pardew, assistant John Carver, coach Steve Stone and goalkeeping coach Andy Woodman have all been given identical deals with chief scout Graham Carr having signed his own eight-year contract in June.

The 51-year-old took over from Chris Hughton in December 2010 on a five-year deal.

He was appointed after Ashley and managing director Derek Llambias decided Hughton had taken the Magpies as far as he could.

The former Reading, West Ham, Charlton and Southampton manager met Ashley in a casino in London.

Ashley insisted that the club must be run along strict financial lines, with no heavy investment in the squad ... and unlike Hughton (who had a dig at the broken promises from Ashley) Pardew has stayed loyal.

Despite being promised funds to buy two defenders in the summer transfer market - it didn't happen - yet Pardew refused to hit out at the club owner.
