NEWCASTLE manager Alan Pardew today ruled himself out of the race to succeed Fabio Capello as England boss.
The 50-year-old Newcastle manager was installed as third favourite behind Tottenham counterpart Harry Redknapp following the Italian's resignation last night.

"I am not even in the running as far as I am concerned."
