Alan Pardew will not strip Jonny Evans of the West Brom captaincy despite the Northern Ireland international's role in a training camp incident.
Evans and three team-mates - Gareth Barry, Jake Livermore and Boaz Myhill - admitted to a "curfew breach" while the club were away in Spain.
A UK newspaper reported the quartet stole a taxi after a late-night outing to a fast food restaurant, with the players involved issuing an apology.
Barry and Evans were both named in the West Brom team for a 2-1 FA Cup home defeat to Southampton on Saturday, but Evans' fellow defender Gareth McAuley wore the armband.
