Pardew leaves Charlton job
22/11/2008 - 19:42:28Alan Pardew has tonight left his role as Charlton manager by mutual consent.
The board at The Valley finally lost patience with the 47-year-old following this afternoon’s 5-2 defeat at home to Sheffield United.
The result saw Charlton slip into the Coca-Cola Championship relegation zone on the back of a run of eight games without a win.
Pardew said: “My record coming to this club has been good, but it’s been difficult here. When I arrived they were on the slide and I haven’t been able to stop that.
“We’re in a sticky situation and I have to accept whatever decision is made.”
