Pardew sacked as West Ham manager
Pardew's reign at Upton Park is over
Alan Pardew has been sacked as manager of West Ham.
The Hammers are in 18th place in the Premiership following a run of three straight defeats that culminated in Saturday's 4-0 thrashing at Bolton. "Alan has made an important contribution since joining in September 2003 but this season's results have been disappointing," said a statement. "Chairman Eggert Magnusson and the board feel it is the right time to make a change in the club's best interests."
