Pardew Hits Out At Ranger

24 March 2012 12:14
Nile Ranger has been told to go away and grow up if he wants a future in professional football.

After another week which saw him in court – first for breaking his bail conditions, then to be found guilty of drunk and disorderly behaviour – the striker joined League One Sheffield Wednesday on loan until the end of the season.

Alan Pardew: “He has to behave like a pro on and off the pitch.

"When he does, there will be an opportunity at this club or at another one.

“He has to prove that at Sheff Wednesday – a fantastic club with an experienced manager and a chief exec I know well.

"They are under no illusions what he has to do at the football club.”

"I will not be keeping in touch with him. No. I will just be speaking to (manager) Dave Jones and (chief executive) Paul Aldridge and monitor it from there.”
