ALAN Pardew will not be at St James' Park for Newcastle United's clash with Crystal Palace on Saturday, March 22.
The former Eagles midfielder will serve a seven-match suspension with immediate effect, subject to any appeal, after admitting to an FA misconduct charge.
Pardew headbutted Hull City midfielder David Meyler in the Magpies' recent 4-1 win at the KC Stadium.
An Independent Regulatory Commission ruled the first three-matches imposed are a stadium ban with the remaining four a touchline ban.
Pardew was also fined £60,000 and warned as to his future conduct.
