New Saints owner Markus Liebherr said:"We are delighted to have been able to attract Alan to St Mary's from a very strong field of candidates."

Pardew, who has been out of football since leaving Charlton in November 2008, replaces Mark Wotte.
Big job for Pardew down on the South Coast. It's not going easy getting back into the Championship, but at least they've gone for an experianced manager - and not a publicity stunt guy, as they were reported to be after Keegan a few weeks ago.
