Sam Allardyce

The Littlest Yobo · May 5, 2018

Amazing all these pundits saying what a great job Sam has done. Makes you wonder, with only a year left on his contract, why none of them are touting him for the Arsenal job. What would their answer be to that suggestion, I wonder?

There is no quick fix for this team.

From the rag

Allardyce did not join the rest of his squad for the lap, but has explained that was down to his media commitments.
“I didn't come out because of my media commitments,” Allardyce said.
“You have a certain time to go onto the TV otherwise you get fined, so I have to commit to that.
“That's what the rules are. Rules are you've got a certain time to get out and get your interviews done.
“I clapped to the fans as I went off.”

More excuses to go with the rest he spouted

Has a short memory doesn’t he. The Bisto Bandit. Absolute state of it

You really can't read properly or comprehend can you. On many posts I've stated that Allardyce has done his job and I don't want him here next season. I just don't see the point of having to return to the schoolyard to prove it. Still if making personal insults against someone who will never read them makes you feel better about yourself.... On you go!

Tally ho

Fat greedy cart.

The fact he did not go out for the lap after the game either shows he's goin or his utter disdain for supporters. If it's the latter he should be held accountable for not Doin it

It suggests to me they didnt want to give any more ammunition to any of their doubters inside and outside the club.

Got to be mate. What manager of a club doesn’t do the lap of honour?

He may have taken advice from the security, that it wouldn`t really be a very good idea to go walkabout, due to the mood of the "minority ".

It`ll be interesting to see how he spins the amount of stick he took this time.

Ya. But if this is true surely he can't stay in his position. It won't improve

Gobsmacked at some of the comments from Hoddle, if your not in the top 6 then you have no right to expect entertainment. . All of them said how bored they were watching that, welcome to our world under Allardyce.

I can't stand football right now. The Premier League is elitist and the national team has died a death because all these players are paid so much money so early in their careers they haven't got the hunger to strive to be the best.

Couldn't get over today in any case, but certainly wouldn't have come. I'm in my 55th year now going the match and it's the first time I've felt so strongly about the path we seem to be taking.
Who says as you get older you begin to mellow.

He said he had to do media work or he would have been fined, what a clown his time is up

He has lots of media mates, as he always gives an interview.

The pundits keep churning out "Everton fans are unrealistic, shirley PL survival was his brief this season".

The questions they never ask is, why still the same style of football, once safety was secured?

Allardyce on why he didn't attend the lap of appreciation:

“I didn't come out because of my media commitments,” Allardyce said.

“You have a certain time to go onto the TV otherwise you get fined, so I have to commit to that.

“That's what the rules are. Rules are you've got a certain time to get out and get your interviews done.

“I clapped to the fans as I went off.”

I guess Moyes, Martinez and Koeman did not get the memo then.

A lying toe-rag right till the bitter end. He has either already been told he is going after the last game and didn't give a crap or knew he would be booed off the pitch and was advised not to. Probably both.

It`d be interesting to see how many of the other managers, that had their last home game today, had to leg it after the game to go and do media work.

Shithouse.
