[phild]

As expected

Good luck to him and hoping it is a great appointment.

That said I think he is a very lucky man although he did make it hard for the club not to appoint him whilst in the caretaker role. I just hope he isn’t sacked before Christmas because even in the Championship winning games takes some doing. I think he is appointed as Head coach which at least means, I suspect, that he will be kept a long way away from the transfer dealings, both in and out.

Not sure whether to be happy or sad about it but, as with all Manager/head coach appointments fully behind him and hope he leads us to the top of the Championship and into the PL. Good luck, being caretaker is one thing being Head coach completely another.

Cant see anything yet regarding the terms of his contract.

So far this is all there is - he as been awarded an

"improved and extended" contract.

Bollux, GLM. Let's get right behind him.

Totally agree as deserved on merit. Any one would have been a gamble lets face it including Smith and Pearson. Had Pearson or Smith been offered being Pardew you would most likely have said no way, or the very least - they are all ****e!

The crux of the matter is whether the owner/board will back any manager ( now Big Dave ) with hungry and quality players and not has beens like Barry, Pole or players who may decide to play or not to play i.e Chadli and Livermore.

Big Dave will also know the youth system ie Leko and Field well. A gamble, but hey anything is a gamble.

There's your Clipboard/Saunders right there, good luck with that one!

He’ll be gone by early November.

An appointment based on sentiment with no serious rationale behind it.

A good bloke but that ain’t enough I’m afraid .....I’d have preferred a b a s t a r d to sort out our squad of b a s t a r d s.
