Crystal Palace have appointed ex-Newcastle boss Alan Pardew as their new manager on a three-and-a-half-year deal.
The announcement was officially made on Saturday, 3 January, 2015, two days after Pardew watched the London side draw 0-0 with Aston Villa in the Premier League.
Pardew, 53, was given permission by the Magpies to speak to Palace after the clubs agreed compensation on Monday.
The former Palace player replaces Neil Warnock, who was sacked last Saturday.
