Sam Allardyce

Don't know what match this guy watches, but it certainly isn't the same one as me. He comes out with such rubbish in his post match interviews it's totally laughable.
OK hard to judge from highlights but the Spurs v West Ham game looked poor. He said West Ham had 20 chances on goal and that's great, in fact MOTD stats showed 18 of which 4 were on target compared to Spurs 10 of which 4 were on target.
He really does massage stats and figures to suit. I can't stand the bloke, but not for this side but his dull and boring long ball kick it up em tatics. I'm no West Ham fan, but I can't see them putting up with this type of football all season. I think he only survived because he kept them up last season.
He's a total clown

As per my thread a few weeks ago, his record..........

Limerick - Won promotion as player/manager in first season.
Preston - Coach, appointed caretaker and did well, unlucky not to get the vacant job so moved on.
Blackpool - best league position for 20 years - sacked! by Owen Oyston.
Notts County - won the league by 19 points in first full season.
Bolton - achieved 8th, 6th, 8th, pilloried as a long ball merchant (well, Arsenal didn't like it up 'em - still don't tbh) yet signed Djorkaeff, Campo, Speed, Okocha.....any old clogger really.
Newcastle - Building a good squad, 11th in table - moved on for not playing "attractive" football. finished 12th, relegated following season.
Blackburn - Sacked when 13th in table. finished 14th, relegated following season.
West Ham - Pressure for style of football (again) but so far have stuck with him. Looking at last season probably a good job they did.

Yes, I'm biased as he took Bolton to their most successful period for 40/50 years. He was also a pioneer of the use of stats and sports science in the Premier League. I also think the "long ball" tag is overstated. Can't comment on West Ham but it was certainly not all he was about at Bolton. I wish we had him back there now.

Not sure you'll have to worry too much longer about his post match interviews, Not sure he'll be doing any
