It is thought that Pardew will still face an already scheduled end-of-season review, but Mike Ashley HAS spoken to the former West Ham boss, saying he can continue ... for the time being.

Owner Mike Ashley was at Loftus Road for the 2-1 victory but will meet up with Pardew and managing director Derek Llambias after next weekend’s final game with Arsenal.
