Newcastle, Fulham and Palace are all praying that this is true. Nobody else in the league cares.
Huddersfield (R) and Cardiff (R) are too busy fighting for 19th to care.
In other news, I saw Southampton lose 2-0 at home to Rochdale in 2011. That would have been under Pardew, prior to the physio taking over.
They lost 0-4 at home in Pardew's last game, didn't they? My suspicion is this is a likely to happen as Hughton being replaced by the late Malcolm Allison. Can you IMAGINE!!!
