Revie was a winner of many trophies. What has Allardyce won?
Our hearts.
Will if Pulis is involved he is not under the 6 English managers.
Could go back a few years. I suppose.
Having looked at it a 3rd time: yeah you might be right. He deserves the benefit of doubt I guess.
Nice prank. Give it to Giggsy.
The agent who is involved with big sam is an ex United player. Well this just gets even crazier.
meh, he is good, don't get me wrong, but if England wants to be succesful, they should hire Malcom Tucker!
Over 60 Dancer of the Year 2016.
Not only is he getting sacked, I fear top flight and Championship clubs will avoid hiring him initially due to the bad image this might bring them. You hardly see managers coming into sought after jobs after a controversy of this kind-similar to that ex-Cardiff manager
Just as well he has the financial security of that non-existent £400k, then.
Yeah. That has all the hallmarks of a shady deal.
I think we're in the clear on that one. I've no doubt that it was a deal to carry favour with Mendes, but we did nothing illegal. Unethical, perhaps, but not illegal. There were doubts over how Mendes managed to acquire 30% of Bebe's ownership rights prior to the deal, with allegations that he was poached, but that's on him, not us.
If they sack him, he'll be paid off - maybe not 100% of his outstanding salary, but a very large proportion of it. BS maybe, but just how it works. He'll never need to work again.
Considering one of the guys across from Sam looked like this, you'd have thought he'd have smelled a rat?
...
Guardian:
Will he be back at Sunland?
All that's missing is Rio to jump out and tell Sam he's been merked.
Drop Rashford. Get wrecked.
Officlally gone. Henry Winter just confirmed it.
I enjoyed the ITV news segment this morning that described Sam as "a beacon of hope for English football" before this story broke. Who the feck had any belief in him? There was a collective sigh when he was announced.
It's gonna be Southgate next, isn't it?
I'm one of those who thinks it should be a Englishman in charge but feck, I really don't want him.
What's Fergie up to these days? He must get getting bored by now.

So he basically quit?! 
He said he wasn't ready weeks ago, I don't see why anything would have changed.
Maybe this is wrong and I shouldn't - but I feel bad for Sam.
Actually being offered the job might change his mind.
Sky reporting he was sacked, didn't resign.
Face it, they're all bent and unlikeable.
What's Big Ron doing these days?

SSN Sam gone been sacked.
The FA themselves are bloody corrupt - I believe not one of them has any integrity and are probably mixed up in all sorts. Sam no doubt has to be the scapegoat so that no one looks too closely at the incompetent FA.
Hope Sam didn't sign a confidentiality agreement... would be fun to hear what he has to say about his former employers

The fact that him getting the England job screwed over Sunderland, and now it turns out it was all for nothing, is the cherry on top of the cake. Their fans are left wanting Allerdyce back and Moyes out 
I know! It's too funnyThe fact that him getting the England job screwed over Sunderland, and now it turns out it was all for nothing, is the cherry on top of the cake. Their fans are left wanting Allerdyce back and Moyes out
Same, it was his dream job.
What are the odds of losing a terrible manager and ending up with a worse one?!The fact that him getting the England job screwed over Sunderland, and now it turns out it was all for nothing, is the cherry on top of the cake. Their fans are left wanting Allerdyce back and Moyes out
Same. He's an idiot, but i can't help feel bad that something that took him 10 years to finally realise has been undone in the space of a month by something he said years ago.
Still, was hard to see any other outcome.
Will be a good signing for any club looking to stay in the PL. Stoke or Swansea maybe.
Telegraph reporting he has lost his job.
Yes please.
It'll be a pint of wine later. Deserved.
