While on the topic of penalties, Pardew took aim at Jamie Carragher's analysis of the late penalty awarded against Palace in their last home game against Liverpool.
Christian Benteke was adjudged to have been fouled by Damien Delaney, and Pardew, in addition to being unhappy with the decision, didn't like Carragher's analysis of the incident on Sky Sports.
"What annoyed me most were Jamie Carragher's strong comments after the game stating that Christian Benteke was right to go down and win the penalty," Pardew writes.
"I couldn't disagree more with those sentiments and it is a shame that so many former and current players share his opinion that diving is a valid tactic."
"Would Carragher have had the same opinion if Wilf (Wilfried Zaha) had gone down in the box in the 94th minute of a massive game at Anfield? I suspect not, but loyalties can blur opinions at times."
