Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew has said that West Brom manager Roy Hodgson is one of the best and it will be a privilege to meet him when the two sides meet each other on Sunday.
Newcastle United will be taking on West Brom at the Hawthorns knowing that a victory could put them within a point of fifth placed Chelsea.
The 2-1 loss at the hands of Arsenal recently looked to have handed a major blow to Newcastle United’s aspirations for finishing in the top four, but the draw and defeat for Tottenham and Chelsea respectively has kept them in the race.
