Watch: Alan Pardew loses it with Sky Sports interviewer after Liverpool loss

Not a happy man

Robert Redmond

At least there were no head-butts were thrown.

Geoff Shreeves’ line of questioning prompted Alan Pardew to lose his rag on Sunday afternoon.

The Crystal Palace manager had just watched his side lose at home to Liverpool in the early Premier League kick-off, and remain winless in the league during 2016.

The Eagles took the lead early in the second-half, through a Joe Ledley strike, and then saw their opponents reduce to 10 men after James Milner received his marching orders for his second yellow card.

A howler from Alex McCarthy gifted Roberto Firmino the equaliser, before Christian Benteke controversially won, and converted, an injury time penalty, after appearing to be fouled by Damien Delaney.

Pardew was evidently not happy with the penalty decision, and asked Shreeves not to “antagonise” him.

Before appearing to become antagonised.

The Palace manager then cut the Sky Sports’ interviewer off as he attempted to explain his question.
