FA slaps Pardew with 7-match ban
Print Edition
NEWCASTLE United manager Alan Pardew has been given a seven-match suspension and a 60,000 pound (US$100,000) fine for headbutting Hull City midfielder David Meyler, the Football Association announced yesterday.
The 52-year-old will be banned from attending Newcastle’s games for the first three matches of the ban, with the remaining four matches to be served as a touchline ban.
“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,” read a statement on the FA website.
“An Independent Regulatory Commission today ruled the first three matches imposed are a stadium ban with the remaining four a touchline ban.
“Pardew was also fined 60,000 pound and warned as to his future conduct."
Pardew learnt of his suspension after appearing before an FA disciplinary commission at Wembley Stadium in London yesterday and subsequently released a statement expressing regret for his behavior.
“As I have made clear, I deeply regret the incident and again wholeheartedly apologize to all parties for my conduct, which I understand was not acceptable,” he said.
The incident occurred during Newcastle’s 4-1 victory at Hull in the Premier League on March 1, with Pardew sent to the stands after moving his head towards Meyler during a touchline confrontation.
