Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew will be in charge for their clash with Southampton.

The under-fire Eagles boss has staged talks with club supremo Steve Parish and his future is still uncertain, says The Sun.

Palace suffered a stunning 5-4 loss at Swansea on Saturday with the killer goals all coming in injury-time.

Pardew was aware that a loss in south Wales could have meant the end of his tenure in south London.

Club officials will allow Pardew to keep the reigns for the forthcoming game but are ready to act if the team suffers another loss.

Pardew is under no doubt that a crushing loss will see him suffer the sack. Sam Allardyce, Roy Hodgson and Chris Coleman are all interested in the job.
