Pardew was caught by an automatic speed camera driving at 26mph in a 20mph zone on the A205 in Clapham, south Londonin February.

He had nine points at the time of the offence, for three previous speeding offences in 2022 and 2023.

Pardew pleaded guilty to speeding at Bexley magistrates’ court on Monday. After being handed the ban, the ex-Palace boss told the Daily Mail: ‘I apologise really, in terms of getting the driving ban.

‘Three of my speeding offences were for going over a 20mph limit, so maybe it’s a warning to everyone not to lose concentration in those 20mph zones, as it’s so easy to do.’

‘She doesn’t want to live with myself or my sister, she wants to be at home. She wants to live in the house where she lived with her partner.

‘She’s on her own. We have talked about perhaps bringing her back to London, but she doesn’t want that.

‘She’s quite emotional, we lost my brother this year as well, she’s not in a great mental space. I would worry.’

Pardew drives his mother, who lives in Chichester, to London to see children and grandchildren ‘once or twice a week’.

He also takes taking her to medical appointments and he told the court he was worried that she would be left isolated if he lost his licence.

Representing the retired sporting star, Anne-Marie Critchley said: ‘Mr Pardew’s mother is not able to use public transport and fears total isolation without his support.

‘She would be isolated and unable to see the family. She would also find it difficult to shop and attend appointments.’

Pardew, of Warlingham, Surrey, was also ordered to pay a total of £,1034 by magistrate Sonia Case who said the circumstances did not constitute expectational hardship.

He is best remembered by many Palace supporters for scoring the winning goal in the 1990 FA Cup semi-final against Liverpool, sending the south London club to their first-ever Cup final.

‘It was just a heat of the moment thing, and obviously I massively regret it,’ he said of the incident at the time.

He later worked abroad, managing ADO Den Haag in the Netherlands and CSKA Sofia in Bulgaria.

Pardew’s managerial career has been marked by both success and controversy — including leading West Ham to the 2006 FA Cup Final and Newcastle to a fifth-place Premier League finish in 2012, before his later overseas ventures drew mixed results.
