  • That will be the record for shortest reign ever of any intl manager maybe???
  • will leave with a 100% win record.
  • probably be easier to point out the managers/executives who are not on the fiddle .. Sam might be a little bit dodgy (Arfer Daley, he's alright) but the FA should keep him in place and not keep bowing down to media pressure and sensationalism

    for arguments sake, he did get sacked;

    who replaces him?. my choice would be eddie howe but at 38 is he too young? and its a very young age to fail as england boss and write yourself out of english football.

    anyone but pardew i would struggle to support the team.

    Eddie Howe.

    If so wthe FA need to act quickly because I think Arsenal is is destiny

    Meantime, appoint Steve Bruce. Very much in the Allardyce mould as a manager, but much more integrity.
    Are we basing his integrity on leaving Palace after 25 minutes as manager?
    That was just common sense :wink:
  • Should of got Mike Bassett, the twats!!

    Eddie Howe couldn't cope with the Northern Giants Burnley and ran back to his home comforts at Bournemouth.
    Nothing to suggest he could step up to England.

    Can't we just give up on international football?

    1. We ain't any good
    2. It's corrupt and we're not even good at that
    3. Frees up the summer
    4. Instant unemployment for Glen Hoddle

    Anything that enforces number 4 is a good thing in my eyes!

    Have you been to Burnley? I don't blame him.
  • As crazy as the whole situation is, I honestly think he will be sacked!
  • I think I love big Sam even more now

    His position is completely untenable - better to get rid now with a straightforward World Cup qualification campaign ahead than risk more allegations before the tournament itself.
  • What was Allardyce thinking ? He is in a high profile job, why wouldn't he just concentrate on the job at hand rather than get mixed up with something completely dubious.

    Knowing how the world works, why didn't his agent do a proper background check on the people he was having a meeting with ? (Not saying he should have taken the meeting at all).

    The whole thing is completely idiotic. Sam Allardyce fired for idiocy and stupidity on a number of different levels.

    because he was at the meeting thinking about his cut!
  • Have people forgiven Glenn Hoddle yet for his verbal indiscretion about people with disabilities and the Eileen's involvement?

    Time should be a great healer (excuse the pun) and this did all kick off more than 17 years ago.

    i think they probably have, its just a shame he keeps talking absolute dog shit whilst wanking over spurs youngsters whenever he is given the chance

  • all over twitter that hes at wembley and reporters are live from there, really think he could get the bullet, after the performance at the euros were already a laughing stock its a shame as he comes across as a nice bloke couldnt give 2 shits about the hodgson or gary neville comments there both a pair of twats that shouldnt be allowed anywhere near the national team, its the getting round the fa rules that doesnt sit well with me, the money on the side he does say i would have to check with the fa but even still 3 mill a year is enough to not have to earn on the side.

    That's why I think sacking him would be harsh. He clearly states that he'd have to clear it with the FA first.

    That being said, it's still a very bad error in judgement & it looks as though he could go

    he says he would have to check with "the powers that be", that could be his wife in regards to flying out to Asia to do after dinner speeches when not away with England.
  • I've said before that I think the England job is a part time gig.

    It leaves the manager with too much time on their hands.
    In the case of allardyce,a chance to get his fingers in a few more sticky pies.
    In the case of Hodgson, a brain that just turned to mush with the little activity he was using it for.

    It needs someone involved in competitive football on a week to week basis IMO.

    Howe's a good shout

    Where would you want to work? Bournemouth would be my choice over any other club above the M25, its grim up north.
    The England job would enable him to continue living in civilisation with only a few trips the wilderness which I'm sure he could palm off onto an underling if he felt he wasn't up to it.

    If Eddie get the job i'm afraid the media will find out about his past ?

    Quantum physics and he once dissected a frog when in the 6th form.

    I don't want the FA to be caught on the hop, without doing due diligence
