I’m not sure what these movement where trying to portray. When The Palace scored Pardew went into a weird Robot like impression of a very bad early Dr Who invention. Most manager would have applauded the effort with a fist in the air. Who knows this might catch on in the celebration if making a complete fool of yourself is what makes you happy. In complete contrast when Utd equalised the expression on Pardew face was more in keeping of how he always looked, unfazed by being pegged back within 2 minutes, and that look continued for the rest of the contest.
In fairness The Palace goal was well taken, but it was only a matter of not if but when the Utd superior players were going to stage a comeback. Pardew men had their chances after the sending off, and with a lesser opponent they might even have won this cup game. Bad luck better try next season, but this was their swansong, and unlike the Addicks who actually won the then FA cup in 1947 it might never happen to our past Landlords.

I don’t hate Palace like most CAFC but after that ridiculous chest shuffle or whatever it was I was on cloud 9 when utd. Equalised & went on to win.
Pardew never fails to disappoint! 🙂
