LONDON - Alan Pardew was appointed manager of Crystal Palace on Saturday after swapping mid-table Newcastle for a team fighting against Premier League relegation.Palace says Pardew signed a 3 1/2 year contract to manage the club he played for from 1987 to 1991, filling the void left by Neil Warnocks firing last Saturday.I am absolutely delighted to be the new manager of Crystal Palace, Pardew said in a statement on the clubs website. Everyone knows my history here, whats important now is to move the club to the next level.Pardew had been at Newcastle since 2010 and Palace had to buy him out of a contract that ran until 2020.Pardew often endured abuse from fans at the north-east club as he coped with limited financial resources under Mike Ashleys ownership. He should receive a fonder reception at Palace, where he is remembered for scoring the goal that took the team to the 1991 FA Cup final, which Manchester United won.Pardew will take charge of Sundays FA Cup game against Dover. But his main task will be to improve the London clubs form in the Premier League, where it sits in 18th place in the relegation zone midway through the season.We wanted a manager with a great track record and proven experience in the Barclays Premier League, Palace chairman Steve Parish said. In Alan we have both these things as well as a man who has great affection for this club and shares my determination to take us to the next level.Pardew was the second-longest serving manager in the Premier League behind Arsenals Arsene Wenger, and led Newcastle to a fifth-place finish in 2012.He goes with our best wishes and thanks, Newcastle managing director Lee Charnley said.

Goalie coach Jim Corsi will not return, and assistant Teppo Numminens contract will not be renewed, the Sabres announced. Two other assistants, Joe Sacco and Jerry Forton, have a choice to stay with the Sabres after being offered jobs within the teams hockey department. The moves came three days after the Sabres (21-51-10) finished last in the standings, and closed one the worst and most tumultuous seasons in their 44-year history. The shake-up doesnt come as a surprise. Nolan inherited the staff in November, after being hired on an interim basis to replace Ron Rolston. Nolan has since been signed to a three-year contract and it was widely anticipated that he would begin hiring his own staff this off-season. Former NHL goalie Arturs Irbe is regarded a potential candidate to join Nolans staff. Irbe is from Latvia and has previously worked with Nolan, who has spent the past three years coaching the countrys national team. Corsi was the Sabrees longest tenured assistant after completing his 16th season in Buffalo.dddddddddddd He played a role in mentoring former Sabres great Dominik Hasek and then Ryan Miller, who was traded to St. Louis on Feb. 28. Numminen, a former NHL defenceman, completed his third season in Buffalo after being first hired by former Sabres coach Lindy Ruff. Sacco, the former Colorado Avalanche head coach, and Forton were hired by Rolston last off-season. In the meantime, Sacco will be working as an assistant under United States coach Peter Laviolette at the World Hockey championships in Belarus next month. The Sabres also announced theyre adding a second minor-league affiliate after reaching a deal with Elmira (N.Y.) of the ECHL. Elmira will complement the Sabres top affiliate, AHL Rochester. Both minor-league teams are located within 150 miles of Buffalo. Buffalo is in the midst of rebuilding from scratch. Through a series of trades, the Sabres have stockpiled a significant number of draft picks spread over the next three years, spurring the teams need to add another affiliate. ' ' '
