The Football Association also fined Pardew £60,000 in imposing the toughest managerial punishment in Premier League history.
Pardew was given a three-game stadium ban followed by a four-match touchline suspension after clashing with Meyler during Newcastle바카라s 4-1 win at Hull on March 1, 2014.
With his side trailing 3-1, Republic of Ireland international Meyler raced over to get the ball to take a throw-in quickly by the Newcastle dugout.
Pardew responded by leaning in to Meyler and moving his head towards him.
After the FA hearing, Pardew said: 바카라As I have made clear, I deeply regret the incident and again wholeheartedly apologise to all parties for my conduct, which I understand was not acceptable.
바카라I will accept the punishment handed down by the FA.바카라
Newcastle had issued their own statement after fining Pardew £100,000.
바카라We have held discussions with Alan, who has offered his sincere apologies,바카라 the club said. 바카라It is clear he deeply regrets his actions."
Pardew바카라s four-year spell at Newcastle came to an end in December 2014 when he was given permission to talk to Crystal Palace about their managerial vacancy.
Now 62, Pardew has managed West Brom, ADO Den Haag, CSKA Sofia and Aris Thessaloniki since leaving Palace in 2016.
