You've reached the bottom of that barrel you're looking to scrape, I'd stop there.
Pardew
He did it though. If finishing top 6 with a non mega rich team is really hard than how come someone as utterly awful as pardew did it?
The Guardian pretty much nails it in one...

I'm not great at maths but twice is more than once right?

He managed it twice at Bolton (1x 6th , 1x 7th) in 5 years, so whilst it was a decent achievement, it hardly proves your point & it's Sam ****ing Allardyce btw - lol.
But lets have a look at my original two.
Reid finished 7th twice in a row with newly promoted sunderland.
Allardyce finished 8th, 6th, 8th, 7th with newly promoted Bolton.
Can we all agree given they were working on smaller budgets and with less prestigious teams that's a better job than Moyes has done here?

He's showing his true 'talent' this season, as you've forgotten the word 'consistently' again......
oh & btw it was Graham Carr who should have got the most credit for their one season in the sun, as it was his astute eye for a player, that was the foundation for it. Which is why he's under contract there until he's 75.
In that case well done Tony Henry and John Ebbrell.

Allardyce had a bigger net spend than Moyes at Bolton.
He signed 2 forwards that cost £18M the pair, so no, we can't agree.

Didn't he win a trophy too?
Boom.

Allardyce did a better job there than moyes did here.

Of course he did love, that'll be why he got the sack.
He didn't get sacked...

Oh yeah, sorry, I was confusing his failures there, he got sacked from Blackburn & Newcastle in the space of 3 years, he walked from Bolton of course.
He left to take the newcastle job and bolton never recoevered. He wasn't sacked.
I haven't mentioned that Allardydce took bolton to three semi finals and one cup final, same as moyes has done here. Or that he has an equally good record in europe. Or that he took over a struggling second flight team as opposed to one of the biggest teams in english football.
I don't need to. You live by the points per pound philosophy, you die by that philosophy. And in points per pound allardyce did better. I've provided the stats.
