Stupid decision to bring him back. Was a major f-up when he was manager, how is he gonna be as Director Of Football. Alan Pardew cant be happy with someone interfering with HIS team. I certainly wouldnt be. It's his team and he should have the right to make the decisions he wants to make regarding tranfers, match-plans and other squad matters. Personally, im against the Director Of Football at any club. If you're appointed manager, you're putting your bollocks on a table with a knife hanging above it, so you dont want someone else making decisions for you
