Hard to tell, him being a friend of Ashley but premiership survival is the only thing that matters to the owner, obviously because of the income from Sky etc.

Newcastle may be a bit unbalanced, but they have some good players. With Pardew in charge though they will never improve. I'd sack him today. But who do you appoint? Curbishley is probably odds on at 5 to 1  |
I believe there is a clause in Pardews contract stipulating a maximum payout of £1.5 million (small change to Ashley).
Curbishley has been out of top flight management for too long now but on the other hand...you never know what Ashley is thinking.
