Pardew's (unsurprisingly) denied the claims and handed Chung a hefty fine for doing such a negative interview. Not sure why the little scrote is mouthing off just three weeks before one of the biggest games in the club's history. Think it's safe to say he's blown any chance of being in the matchday squad!
While Pardew's done very well in making the cup final, he's never struck me as the type who can turn poor league form around. Wouldn't be surprised to see him gone within a year.
